Install RSKTV Player Pro on a Samsung TV
On Samsung, installation happens through the app store built into the TV — no USB stick, no file handling. You open the Apps panel, search for the app, install it. Activation follows at first launch: the screen shows a device ID and a code that you enter on this site from your phone.
RSKTV Player Pro is being reviewed by Samsung: it is not yet published on the Samsung TV App Store. The current review covers the United States; other countries are not open yet, and no date has been announced. This page describes the installation and activation process as it will work.
What you need
- A Samsung TV running Tizen 4.0 or later, which in practice means 2018 models and newer.
- An internet connection on the TV — Wi-Fi works, Ethernet is safer for live streams.
- A Samsung account signed in on the TV: the app store asks for it.
- Your own playlist: an M3U link or a media-server login. It is not supplied to you.
Installing, step by step
- On the remote, press Home (the house icon).
- Open the Apps panel.
- Select the search icon, top right.
- Type RSKTV and confirm.
- Open the listing, then Install.
- When it finishes, choose Open — or find the app in your installed apps.
Activation, once per device
- On first launch the app shows your device ID and a code, then contacts the activation server.
- The seven-day trial starts automatically, once per device, with no card required.
- From a computer or phone, open the “My playlist” section of the site, enter the ID and the code, then save your playlist — M3U link or media server.
- Back in front of the screen, the playlist is already there: nothing to type with the remote.
If the app does not show up in search
- The TV’s region. The store catalogue depends on the country set on the device. An app published in one country does not appear elsewhere.
- The model is too old. Below Tizen 4.0, the store does not offer apps built for newer versions.
- The store is stale. A full restart of the TV — not standby — refreshes the catalogue.
Why we do not recommend USB installation
Some guides explain how to side-load an app from a USB stick by turning on a developer mode. That is a poor idea on a living-room TV: developer mode stays on, the app no longer updates itself, and it often disappears at the first system update.
Installing from the built-in store has none of these problems. It is the only route we document.
Frequently asked questions
Does installing give access to channels?
No. RSKTV Player Pro is a player: no channels, no films, no content subscription is provided, hosted, resold or suggested. You bring your own playlists and remain solely responsible for where they come from and whether they are lawful.
Do I have to pay before trying it?
No. The seven-day trial starts on its own at first launch, with no card required, once per device.
Can I use the same account on several devices?
The licence covers one device: a second screen needs a second licence. If you replace your device, however, support can transfer the licence to the new one — once per licence.
My Samsung TV is from 2016 — is it supported?
No. Below Tizen 4.0 — models before 2018 — the store cannot offer the app. An external box remains an option.
