How to Play M3U Playlists Online in Your Browser (Windows & Mac)

The quickest way to watch an M3U playlist on a computer is in the browser. Doubo’s web player needs no install and no account.

What you need

  • Chrome, Edge, Safari or Firefox on Windows, macOS or Linux
  • Optional: your own M3U / M3U8 playlist link or file

Steps

  1. Open the web player

    Go to doubo.tv/web. A wall of free live channels loads right away, with silent previews.

  2. Pick a channel

    Filter by country or category, or search by name. Click a tile to watch with sound; the other previews stop.

  3. Add your own playlist

    Click Add playlist and paste a link, import a file or paste the playlist text. It is saved in your browser only.

  4. Full screen and Picture in Picture

    Press F for full screen or P for Picture in Picture, and use ↑ ↓ to change channels.
