Playlist Tools
M3U Editor and Sorter
Group your playlist by country and reorder it the way you watch.
These tools work with any compliant IPTV subscription you already own. SMART 4K does not endorse, host, or distribute pirated streams.
How to use
- 1
Load your playlist
Paste a URL, paste raw M3U content, or upload an .m3u file.
- 2
Reorder by country
We detect each channel’s country from tvg-id and group-title. Use the buttons to move countries up, down, to the top, or remove them entirely.
- 3
Export
Download a clean .m3u with your country order. tvg-id, tvg-name, tvg-logo, group-title, and stream URLs are preserved exactly.
Frequently asked
Will my logos and EPG IDs survive the export?
Yes. tvg-id, tvg-name, tvg-logo, and group-title are kept exactly as they were on the original line. Stream URLs are untouched.
What about channels with no detected country?
They go into a "No country detected" bucket pinned at the bottom. You can still remove the whole bucket if you want a country-only playlist.
Can I reorder individual channels?
No - this version only sorts whole countries. For per-channel ordering, edit the exported file in a text editor or use a player like TiviMate.
Does the editor send my playlist to a server?
Paste and Upload modes run entirely in your browser - nothing leaves your device. URL mode uses a single server fetch (CORS bypass) and discards the file after returning the raw text.
How big a playlist can I edit?
Up to ~30 MB or 100,000 entries via URL mode. Pasted and uploaded files are limited to 5 MB. Country grouping shrinks any size playlist into a manageable list.
Will the exported .m3u open in VLC and TiviMate?
Yes. We rebuild the file with proper #EXTM3U header, original duration, and a trailing newline so VLC, TiviMate, IPTV Smarters, and similar players accept it without complaint.
