If you’ve seen the term EPG while setting up IPTV, you might be wondering what it does. The EPG and Catch-Up TV are two features that make IPTV feel just like premium cable — here’s how they work.
What is an EPG?
EPG stands for Electronic Program Guide. It’s the on-screen TV guide that shows you what’s on now and what’s coming up on every channel, so you can browse and plan your viewing just like a cable guide.
What is Catch-Up TV?
Catch-Up TV lets you go back and watch programs that already aired — perfect for a game or show you missed. With Besti IPTV, supported channels keep several days of programming available to rewatch on demand.
How to enable the EPG
- Open your IPTV player’s settings and turn on the EPG
- Let the guide data load (it updates automatically)
- Browse by channel or category and set favourites
Together, the EPG and Catch-Up TV turn IPTV into a complete, cable-like experience. Try Besti IPTV free and see the full guide in action.
