LG Device ID vs MAC address?

by mdeuce01

Maybe im going crazy but I am having a hard time activating a SMART IPTV account on a new TV. I have activated the Smartip app a dozen times on Samsung tv's but this is my first time on an LG. The LG is giving me a "Device ID" and not a MAC address. The Smartiptv website will not allow me to purchase the app with the device id (Invalid ID) Can anyone provide any insight on this? I have an M3U file waiting to upload but im not sure what to do.

Thanks

You will find the mac address in your network settings, not the about section.

So I found the MAC address but its giving me the same error message. I read this on the SIPTV website but im not clear on what it means. Any clarification would be great.

"Since app version 3.0.0 for LG webOS TVs, there is no access to MAC address, so only device ID is available in the app, but it will be activated automatically after app launch if you activated your TV before. You can use your old MAC to upload playlist too."

I have an LG TV running webOS 3.0, I used the device ID to activate and it worked fine.

I would recommend you to check for typos and type exactly as shown. If everything is correct then email the dev team at info@siptv.info for manual activation.
