What is XUI.ONE IPTV Panel?
XUI.ONE is a professional IPTV/OTT panel developed by the GTA team, designed to manage and distribute live and on-demand video content. It supports all major devices including web players, Android/iOS apps, Smart TVs, MAG/Enigma STBs, and offers critical features like load balancing, transcoding, EPG integration, and full user/reseller management.
Version History of XUI.ONE
- v1.5.5 – Official stable release
- v1.5.12 R1 – Beta version introducing advanced features
- v1.5.13 – Latest release (September 2024), with enhanced security and MySQL EPG rework
Version 1.5.13 addresses System API vulnerabilities and fixes EPG retention bugs by reverting to a MySQL-based system. For best performance, XUI.ONE should be installed on a fresh Ubuntu 20.04 server with MariaDB 10.5.x.
Version 1.5.13 addresses critical security issues, including a patch for a System API exploit, and reverts the EPG system to a MySQL-based setup to resolve data retention bugs.
For optimal performance, it's recommended to install XUI.ONE on a freshly set up Ubuntu 20.04 server. This ensures compatibility and stability, especially when using MariaDB version 10.5.x, which aligns well with the panel's requirements.

How to Choose the Right IPTV Server (With Formulas)
Proper server sizing is crucial to avoid buffering or overloads. Here's how to plan your server.
🖥️ Recommended Minimum Server Specs
- CPU: 6+ cores (Intel Xeon / AMD Ryzen)
- RAM: 16 GB minimum (32 GB for transcoding)
- Disk: SSD 480 GB or higher (NVMe preferred)
- Network: Dedicated 1 Gbps port
- OS: Ubuntu 20.04 LTS (clean install)
🔢 Bandwidth Calculation (1 Gbps)
Formula:
Total Bandwidth = Number of Channels × Bitrate
Example:
- HD Channel Bitrate: 4 Mbps
- Usable Bandwidth: ~940 Mbps
- 940 ÷ 4 = ~235 live channels max
⚠️ This is raw throughput. With users streaming channels, bandwidth usage increases linearly per stream.
👥 Simultaneous User Calculation
Formula:
Max Users = Total Bandwidth ÷ Stream Bitrate
Example:
- 940 Mbps ÷ 4 Mbps = ~235 concurrent users
If 10 users watch the same stream, that's still 10× bandwidth unless cached/multicast.
🧠 RAM & CPU Usage
RAM: 50–100 MB per live stream
CPU (Transcoding): 0.5–1 core per stream
Example:
- 100 users → ~10 GB RAM
- 10 transcoded streams → 10 cores
🧮 Quick Reference Table
| Resource | Estimated Value (1 Gbps Server) |
|---|---|
| Max HD Channels | ~230 |
| Max Simultaneous Users | ~230 |
| Recommended RAM | 16–32 GB |
| Recommended CPU | 6–12 cores |
| Transcoding Load | 1 core per HD stream |
✅ Conclusion
If you're starting an IPTV system focused on live HD content, XUI.ONE is the most flexible, secure, and cost-effective solution. It beats expensive or outdated panels in every critical category.
Start with: 1 Gbps server, 6-core CPU, 32 GB RAM, SSD storage
Scale easily: Add load balancers with no licensing fees
Monitor: Bitrate per user to calculate realistic performance limits
📌 Remember: More users ≠ more channels. It means more streams = more bandwidth.
