Samsung TV Plus Plugin for Enigma2: Download, Features, Bouquet Creation & Setup Guide (2026)

The Samsung TV Plus plugin for Linux Enigma2 receivers allows users to import hundreds of free FAST (Free Ad-supported Streaming TV) live channels directly into native channel bouquets. Developed for OE-Alliance and OpenPLi distributions, this extension extracts official Samsung TV Plus M3U8 streams and EPG metadata across multiple regions (US, UK, Germany, France, Italy, Spain, and more) without requiring a Samsung Smart TV or account login.

 

   

 

1. Key Features & How It Works

Unlike third-party IPTV plugins that require external players, the Samsung TV Plus extension creates native Enigma2 bouquet files (userbouquet.samsungtvplus.tv). This allows channels to be zapped, recorded, and browsed directly using your remote control's standard channel list and EPG grid.

• 100% Free Live FAST Channels: Access live news, movies, entertainment, sports, documentary, and kids streams across dozens of localized channel packages.

• Automatic Bouquet Generation: Creates and updates localized channel bouquets directly inside /etc/enigma2/ with auto-assigned service references for picon matching.

• Multi-Country Support: Select streams from specific geographic regions, including United States (US), United Kingdom (UK), Germany (DE), France (FR), Italy (IT), Spain (ES), Switzerland (CH), and Canada (CA).

• Integrated EPG Data Parsing: Fetches real-time program descriptions, start/end times, and upcoming event listings without needing extra XMLTV importers.

• Python 2 & Python 3 Dual Compatibility: Fully compatible with legacy OE 2.0 images as well as modern Python 3.10+ environments (OpenATV 7.x, OpenBH 5.x/6.x, EGAMI 10.x, ViX, and PurE2).

 

2. Firmware Compatibility & Attached Installation Packages

The plugin is delivered as a lightweight, architecture-independent IPK file that can be installed on any Enigma2 receiver running OE-Alliance or OpenPLi firmware.

Plugin Package Name	Receiver Architecture	Python Compatibility	Download Package File
Samsung TV Plus Enigma2	Universal (ARM / MIPS / SH4)	Python 2.7 & Python 3.10+	enigma2-plugin-extensions-samsungtvplus_20231005-r1_all.ipk enigma2-plugin-extensions-samsungtvplus_20231005-r1_all.deb

 

3. Step-by-Step Installation Procedure

Follow this sequence to upload the attached plugin file to your receiver and deploy the Samsung TV Plus channel bouquet.

1.Download & Upload IPK File :

Required for transferring installation package.

1. Download the attached enigma2-plugin-extensions-samsungtvplus_all.ipk package to your computer.

2. Connect to your receiver via FTP (FileZilla or WinSCP) using your receiver's IP address (User: root).

3. Upload the .ipk file into the /tmp/ folder on your box.

 

2.Update Package Index & Dependencies via SSH :

Installs required HTTP request libraries.

Open terminal access (PuTTY or Terminal) and run the update command to ensure required Python network packages are present:

opkg update
opkg install python3-requests ffmpeg exteplayer3

(For Python 2 images, use opkg install python-requests ffmpeg exteplayer3)

 

3.Install IPK Package via Terminal :

Executes extension package installation.

Run the following terminal command to force package deployment:

Bash

opkg install --force-overwrite /tmp/*.ipk

 

4.Configure Region & Generate Channels :

Generates channel bouquet and updates EPG.

1. Restart your Enigma2 GUI after installation finishes.

2. Go to Menu > Plugins > Samsung TV Plus.

3. Select your desired target country (e.g., US - United States or UK - United Kingdom).

4. Press Green (Generate Bouquet).

5. Press Exit and open your main channel list (Favorites / Bouquets) to find your new Samsung TV Plus bouquet.

 

4. Optimization Tips for Smooth Stream Playback

A. Assigning exteplayer3 via ServiceApp

Since Samsung TV Plus streams rely on HLS (.m3u8) protocol with dynamic bitrates, setting ServiceApp to use exteplayer3 prevents audio-video sync lag and buffering:

1. Install serviceapp from your image feeds (Plugins > Download Plugins > Systemplugins > serviceapp).

2. Go to Menu > Setup > Usage & GUI > ServiceApp.

3. Set Enigma2 Playback System to serviceapp.

4. Set Player Service Architecture to exteplayer3 and save.

B. Bypassing Regional Geoblocking

Some regional bouquets (such as US or UK channels) enforce geo-fencing on stream requests. If certain streams fail to load, ensure your receiver is routing internet traffic through a VPN configured for the matching country, or choose the bouquet corresponding to your actual IP location.

 

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: Do I need a Samsung TV, subscription, or API key to use this plugin?

A: No. Samsung TV Plus streams are free, ad-supported public feeds. The plugin queries open endpoints to generate stream links directly for Enigma2.

Q2: Why do some channels show a black screen when selected?

A: Black screens are usually caused by geo-blocking restrictions (if selecting a country outside your region) or an outdated HLS stream link. Re-opening the plugin and pressing Green (Generate Bouquet) refreshes all stream tokens.

Q3: How often should I regenerate the channel bouquet?

A: It is recommended to run the bouquet generator once a week or enable the auto-update timer inside the plugin settings to fetch new channel additions and updated stream URIs automatically.
