IPTV works by delivering television content through internet protocol (IP) networks, rather than traditional satellite or cable formats. When you watch TV using IPTV, the content is streamed in real time over your internet connection. Here’s how it works: your IPTV provider stores TV shows, live channels, and movies on servers. When you choose something to watch, the content is broken into small data packets and sent to your device through the internet. Your device—whether it’s a smart TV, smartphone, or set-top box—then decodes the signal and displays the video instantly. This process allows for smoother streaming, better quality, and features like video on demand (VOD), live TV, and catch-up services.
