Setup guides
Plain-English guides to getting ZiroTV running and to what you put into it: installing apps on Fire TV and Google TV, what M3U playlists and Xtream Codes logins are, where the TV guide gets its data, and how catch-up and live rewind work. Each guide answers the question first, then goes through the details.
