Most Xtream Codes stream links look like this:
http(s)://{hostname}:{port}/{username}/{password}/{channelID} (the port is often 25461)
To make sure a link leads to an Xtream Codes server, copy the hostname, port, username, and password into the URL format below and try opening it in your browser:
http(s)://{hostname}:{port}/panel_api.php?username={username}&password={password}
If the page loads a response, it confirms you are dealing with an Xtream Codes server.
