Getting started
Malimar TV is a streaming site for Thai, Lao and Khmer TV: live channels, dramas, movies and variety shows, in English or Thai.
It works in your web browser on a computer, phone or tablet. There's nothing to install.
Yes. You can browse and watch the Free Live TV channels first. Watch free live TV
Sign in to save Favorites and your progress, get new-episode alerts, and get Premium.
Scroll the rows on Home (live channels, dramas, movies, variety and more) or browse by channel.
Tap + on any title to save it to your Favorites.
Searching the catalog is part of Premium (see Free vs Premium). Searching this Help page is free.
One. An account plays on 1 screen at a time. Signing in or starting to watch on another device stops the other one.
You can see and manage your devices on your Account page.
Account & sign-in
- Continue with Google
- Email sign-in link (no password needed)
- Username or email + password
- Text message (SMS) code, for US phone numbers only
- 6-digit code by email: coming soon
All of these are on the Sign in page.
The quickest way is Continue with Google.
Or choose Create an account on the sign-in page: pick a username and password, then add a phone number or email. We verify it once so you can always get back into your account.
Type your email, choose Email me a sign-in link, then open the email and tap the link.
Open it on the same device you're signing in on. The link expires after 1 hour.
No email after a few minutes? Check your spam or promotions folder, or send a new link.
Type your phone number and choose Continue. We text you a 6-digit code to enter on the next screen.
Text codes work for US numbers only. Elsewhere, use Google or email instead.
You can ask for a new code after 60 seconds. After several wrong codes or too many requests, you'll need to wait before trying again.
Coming soon. For now, use the email sign-in link, Google, or your password.
When you sign up with an email, we send a verification link. Open it to finish.
Can't find it? Check spam or promotions. On the Verify your email screen you can resend the email or change the address.
On the sign-in page choose Sign in with username and password, then Forgot password?. We email a reset link to the email on your account.
If your account uses a phone instead of an email, sign in with a text code or Google, then set a new password in Account › Sign-in & security.
Signed in already? You can change your password in Account › Sign-in & security.
An account can be signed in on one device at a time. Signing in somewhere else signs the other device out. We ask before doing that.
Membership & billing
$5 a month during the beta. The normal price is $10 a month.
It renews every month until you cancel. There's no contract.
No. Premium starts when you pay. You can still watch the Free Live TV channels and preview Premium channels without paying.
Free:
- Free Live TV channels
- A short preview (about 30 seconds) of Premium channels
- Browsing rows and channels, Favorites
Premium:
- Every live channel, drama, movie and show
- No preview time limit
- Search across every channel, series and movie
- 1 screen at a time
That was the free preview. Premium channels can be previewed for about 30 seconds. The preview is limited per channel, so you may not get another one right away.
To keep watching, get Premium. Free Live TV channels have no time limit.
Catalog search is part of Premium. If you're signed out, you'll be asked to sign in; if you're signed in without Premium, you'll see an upgrade prompt.
Browsing rows and channels stays free, and so does searching this Help page.
Sign in, then open the Premium page. Online payment is still being set up during the beta, so the options you see there may change.
Online payment is being set up during the beta. When it opens, Premium will be paid through PayPal and renew automatically each month with the payment method you choose in PayPal.
Malimar TV won't store your card details; PayPal handles the payment.
If you cancel, Premium stays on until the end of the period you've paid for.
Online payment is being set up during the beta, so there's no renewal yet and nothing is charged.
When it opens, your renewal date and the days left will show on your Account page, and this answer will explain exactly what happens on that day.
There's no contract, so you can stop anytime. Your plan's status is shown in Account › Subscription.
For now, contact support to change or cancel your plan. Once online payment opens, you'll also be able to cancel on Malimar TV or in your PayPal account.
You can request a refund within 7 days of a payment. This applies to each charge, including renewals. Contact support within those 7 days and we refund it to your PayPal payment method. Your Account page shows the last refund date under Cancel or delete.
After 7 days, that payment isn't refundable. Cancel anytime to stop future charges, and you keep access until the end of the paid period (how to cancel).
We also refund a charge made in error, or unused paid time if we discontinue the service. Except where required by law.
If your deletion request is approved, any paid plan is cancelled at the same time. Refunds follow the 7-day rule (refunds).
Watching & playback
The channel isn't broadcasting right now. The station may be off-air or its feed may be down. It isn't a problem with your account.
The player tries again automatically and shows a countdown. You can wait, try later, or pick another channel.
- Check your internet connection, or move closer to your Wi-Fi router
- In the player, set Quality to a lower setting instead of Auto
- Close other tabs or apps that are using the internet
- Reload the page, or try another browser (Chrome, Safari, Edge or Firefox)
- On mobile data, switch to Wi-Fi
When your phone is on mobile data, the player suggests connecting to Wi-Fi for the best quality and to save data. It shows once per session and hides by itself.
Tap Don't show again to turn it off on this device.
The video couldn't be loaded just now. Reload the page or try again a little later. If it keeps happening with the same title, let us know which one.
- If it was a Premium channel after about 30 seconds, the free preview ended (more)
- If your account started playing on another device, this one stops (1 screen at a time)
- Otherwise, check your connection and reload
Devices & casting
Any modern web browser (Chrome, Safari, Edge or Firefox) on a computer, phone or tablet.
Tap the TV button in the player.
- Chromecast / Google TV: use Chrome on Android or a computer
- AirPlay: use Safari on iPhone, iPad or Mac
Your phone (or computer) and your TV must be on the same Wi-Fi network. Casting doesn't work over mobile data.
- Make sure your TV or Chromecast is on
- Put your phone and TV on the same Wi-Fi (not mobile data)
- Use Chrome; other browsers can't cast to Chromecast
- On iPhone or iPad, use AirPlay in Safari instead
Coming soon. For now, watch in your browser and cast to your TV.
An installable version of the site is coming soon. Until then, you can use your browser's Add to Home Screen option to make a shortcut.
Notifications
Notifications are for signed-in accounts. Add a series to your Favorites and keep Episode alerts on for that show (on its title page).
When a new episode arrives, it appears under the bell at the top with an unread count. Tap it to play; we resume where you left off.
For one show, use the Episode alerts switch on its title page. For everything, go to Account › New episode alerts.
Notifications are only shown when you're signed in. Sign in and the bell appears at the top.
Push notifications are coming soon, together with the installable app. For now, alerts appear under the bell on the site.
Language
Use the EN / ไทย switch: in the menu, in the player, on the sign-in and Account pages, and at the top of this page.
It changes instantly and is remembered on this device.
Show titles and descriptions appear in Thai or English when we have them. Some are only available in their original language.
Privacy & account deletion
Sign in, open your Account page, go to Cancel or delete and choose Delete my account, then Request deletion.
Your request goes to the Malimar TV team for review, and approved requests are completed within 30 days. Until then you can still sign in and watch, and you can cancel the request on the Account page.
Deleting removes your account and sign-in methods, viewing profiles, avatar, settings, My List, watch history, saved addresses, support conversations and approximate location records. It can't be undone.
Can't sign in? Contact support and ask us to delete it.
The Privacy Policy and the account deletion page explain what we collect, what is deleted and what is kept for legal reasons. The Privacy Policy is linked below; the other pages will open once they are published.
