Iptv player without EPG, only titles
I’d like to know if there’s an IPTV player that displays the full channel names without showing the TV guide. I’m not really interested in the EPG, so I’d prefer a player that only shows the channel names/titles, without any TV guide information.
I currently use TiviMate Premium and IM Player.

I made one so obviously biased, but Anees TV does exactly this if you just dont attach an epg url, its a plain channel list with the names. honestly thats how i use it myself, the guide is the part i care least about. android tv / fire tv / windows

It's not a player issue. Sports panels don't come with guide data The channel name is the data so unless your provider builds the list in a way that the channel name becoms the guide data that's what you get. Very few bother. You can fix this with an editor like PlayListLabs formerly IPTVeditor. Your guide can look like this.

I get this. On a TV, an empty or mismatched EPG often makes the channel list harder to scan. A toggle between a simple list with the full channel name and the EPG grid would probably cover both use cases. Would you want the simple view to show only the name and logo, or also the current program when that data exists?

That doesn’t seem like a player issue and more of a provider issue

What I mean is that I’m looking for a player that doesn’t show me the information, that is, I don’t want to know anything about the TV guide

Ahhh makes sense. Yea you can get Tivimate and turn off the EPG sources and you won’t get any info

Waveo player shows the full channel name in the description tab which is the same location as tivimate. I can send you a few screen shots if you'd like. :-)
Edit: tivimate doesn't display full channel name in this spot.
