Lion OTT Setup Guide: From Free Trial to Your First Stream
A clean Lion OTT setup follows one order: choose the device, install a compatible player, receive the connection details, add them carefully and test the result. Skipping a step often turns a simple typing mistake into a long troubleshooting session.
Key points
What to know first
- VERINZO is recommended on supported Android screens, but compatible alternatives may be used.
- Your customer account is the source for orders, active subscriptions and support tickets.
- The server address, username and password must be copied exactly.
- Testing before a longer subscription helps separate device issues from service issues.
Choose a supported device and player
Fire TV, Android TV and Google TV are common big-screen options. Compatible Smart TVs, Apple devices, mobile devices and computers can use a player suited to their operating system.
On supported Android devices, the recommended player is VERINZO. You can use another trusted player when it accepts the connection format supplied with the account.
Request the trial or place an order
Create one customer account and keep the trial, order and support conversation there. When a device needs extra information, such as a MAC address for a MAG setup, provide it during the request so the correct line can be prepared.
Activation and payment review are separate steps. Declaring a payment does not by itself activate a line; wait until the order status confirms that the connection is ready.
Add the connection details
Open the player and choose the login method that matches the supplied details. Enter the server address including its correct protocol and port when shown, then add the username and password without extra spaces.
Give the first catalogue load time to finish. Interrupting the first sync can leave categories incomplete until the connection is refreshed.
Test and get useful support
Try more than one category and compare live TV with on-demand playback. If something fails, note whether the whole connection fails or only one item, and capture the exact error without exposing credentials.
Send support the device model, player name, login method and error. Those four details make diagnosis faster than a message that only says the service does not work.
Action checklist
Follow these steps
- Create or open your Lion OTT customer account.
- Choose the device and install a compatible player.
- Request a trial or wait for an order to be activated.
- Copy the connection details exactly into the player.
- Test playback and open a support ticket if a specific step fails.
