## What is Vita2 Stream Live Player Lite?

Lite & Free version of Vita2 Stream Live Player. The only difference from standard version is:
- Limited channels/streams per playlist are playable.

All other features, such as playlist management, playlist validation and auto-grouping are fully functional.

---The following are descriptions of standard Vita2 Stream Live Player---

Vita2 Stream Live Player helps you watch free live TV or IPTV from M3U playlists that you make/find by yourself or that your broadband service provider made for you. (Many ISP provide the clients with the add-on of free HLS IPTV channels). The key features are:

- Work with unstable connection.
Some key tech schemes are utilized to enable Vita2 Stream to work with unstable internet connection. Also for the better performance, Vita2 uses multi-threads to download HLS segments.

- Automatically Validation
Vita2 automatically validates streams/urls within a playlist. You will always be shown a playable list, even if the M3U playlist is dynamical and is frequently updated remotely. Moreover, Vita2 will rank the streams/channels according to bandwidth RQD, downloading speed and video quality, etc.

- Vita2 supports nested playlist.
This feature enables you to integrate multiple playlists into one. Also it make your playing hassle-free if your ISP provides the nested playlists.

- Auto-group streams/channels.
Vita2 can group the streams/channels according to some predefined tags, e.g. favorite, or tags found in the playlist (refer to group-title attribute illustrated below).

The following is an example of M3U file:

#EXTM3U 
#EXTINF:-1 tvg-logo="http://www.example.com/path/to/images/001.png" group-title="GroupA",Channel A 
http://www.example.com/path/to/001/main.m3u8
