How to set up Nura for someone else

You do not have to be in the room. The other person opens Nura and reads you a six-digit code, you type it into your editor page, and their TV signs in by itself. After that you can tidy their channel list from your own phone.

What you need

  • Your editor page at nuraeditor.org (your editor link, or sign in). If you are not sure how it works, read how to use your editor link first.
  • Nura on their TV or phone. They can install it from the download section of this site.
  • A way to talk to them: a phone call or a message is enough.

The steps

  1. They: open Nura, choose Pair with Code and read out the six-digit code on the screen.
  2. You: on your editor page, find Pair a Device and type the code in.
  3. Give the device a name that will make sense to you, such as Mum's TV. That becomes its profile name in the app.
  4. Press Pair. Their TV signs in by itself, and the playlist and your choice of groups load.

The code only lasts a short time. If it is not accepted, ask them to choose Pair with Code again for a new one.

Looking after it from your side

  • Their channel list: hide the groups they never watch and put the ones they do first. The app picks the change up the next time it refreshes the playlist, which happens when they open it.
  • Their devices: the list under Pair a Device shows every paired device. Remove or Revoke frees a place if they get a new TV or you want to stop it.
  • Their own account: if they have their own login from their provider, they can use Xtream Login on the first screen instead, and manage their own channels.

Limits to know about

  • Most accounts can have up to 5 paired devices; a Standard account has one. Each person you pair uses one of those places.
  • The paired TV uses your account's login to your provider. Some providers only allow a set number of screens at once, so check that yours allows another one.
  • Nura is a player only. It does not supply any channels, so what they can watch is whatever your own playlist contains, and you are responsible for having the right to share it.

If something does not work

The code is not accepted

Ask them to choose Pair with Code again for a new code, and type it quickly. If all your places are used, remove one first.

Their TV signed in but shows nothing

Ask them to close Nura and open it again so it refreshes the playlist. Check your service is not showing as expired on your editor page.

I changed their groups and nothing happened

The app picks the change up when it refreshes the playlist. Closing and reopening Nura does it straight away.
