M3U and server, username and password login are different ways of supplying access details. Neither guarantees faster channel changes on every device.
What does M3U contain?
M3U may be a playlist file or URL. The app reads it to open sources; guide and category support vary by app.
Signing in with account fields
Some apps require server, username and password separately. Use this method only when the app and provider support it.
What determines speed differences?
List processing, source connection, buffering and device capacity can affect channel changes. Login format alone does not explain them.
A fair comparison
Test with the same device, connection and sources. If a method fails, confirm the format instead of randomly moving passwords or URLs between fields.
