About SnapStream.Net accounts

A SnapStream.Net account allows you to log in at www.snapstream.net. You can use this account to edit the channel listing for a custom lineup or configure the channels that are hidden in a SnapStream.Net account. It is not necessary to have a SnapStream.Net account in order to use any of the features of your SnapStream system.

 

 

 

About Lineups

 

SnapStream.Net Lineups, Custom Lineups. and Local Lineups- What's the difference?

 

SnapStream.Net lineups exist on the SnapStream website. Most of these lineups are created by SnapStream's guide data provider and simply passed through to your system. SnapStream.Net lineups have program guide data. The name and channel mapping cannot be edited through this page, although you can choose to hide or show channels. See the Create or Edit SnapStream.Net Lineup page for more information.

 

Custom Lineups are lineups created on your SnapStream appliance by importing channels from existing SnapStream.Net lineups. This allows you to create a custom set of channels with program guide data. See the Create or Edit Custom Lineup page for more information.

Note: Custom Lineups will be listed on the Lineups page under SnapStream.Net lineups.

 

Local lineups exist only on your system. They do not have guide data. See the Create or Edit Local Lineup page for more information.
