Apples & Oranges.....This needs separated into IPTV Vs OTA. that's the root of the issue, it was all put into 1 packet that doesn't fit. Like I said, for IPTV, it's best to just renumber the channels in your preferred order and then they will show up in the "Guide" and "On Now" how you prefer. Issue resolved ....for me.

Pog22 50 Posted December 9, 2021 Share Posted December 9, 2021 22 hours ago, Marijuana said: I made my own groups, for usa I put all usa channels in a text and used emby guide data making sure the guide data is set for usa only then numbered the channels. Next i made another one uk saved to text and used emby guide data making sure it was set to only use with uk numbered channels. Then I did NHL, NFL, Canada, Fighting sports etc. Then using tags on fire stick is a breeze to use I like it, took some time to setup but works really good. The channels that are not english I just ignore those with CCCcam there are loads of junk channels. Mostly I just use 110 & 119 dishnetwork and a couple other crazy CCCcam bins that I cloned for the pay per views. People that don't like the tags just need to give it a chance once you get use to it you will like it. I have already put my effort into m3u4u.com, I got all my channel groups sorted in the order I want with favorites at the front, all with EPG and Logos for all channels. Any changes I make, or channels i reorder on m3u4u syncs on next refresh to my Tivimate players, solar player etc. Emby does not heed the order but orders alphabetically, it's the poorest client I have Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never heard of solar player and Tivimate is not bad but I like emby over other players mainly because I trust it more. For a test I setup tvheadend before and had installed a bunch of iptv players and inserted my playlist from a tvheadend with a login and password and just left the tvheadend screen up with the users connected page showing. Sure enough I started seeing ip addresses pop up on my tvheadend server so that proves that your m3u's you add into these apps are all logged and then even used without peoples consent. With emby I don't have to worry about that ever happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EODCrafter 179 Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 (edited) Interesting, I've been running TV Headend for 4 years and have never seen that. I did hear once that m3u4u is not secure, never used it.

So for tvheadend you could use a url list like this for smarters iptv player http://adam:pass77980@220.120.5.14:9981/playlist/channels then they will grab your playlist and use it themselves or sell it.

Some people use seedboxes to build their VOD library or just install rtorrent and make your own personnel torrent streamer, add all your movies to rtorrent inside your network only so no one can use it but you then start building your m3u VOD with it by grabbing the stream link for each one adding it to your own custom m3u list. But why do that ? lol just use emby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not VOD...a Video Library. Most Providers quit offering VOD, or at least mine has. I have 1000's of TV Shows and Movies on a NAS, If the internet goes down, we still have some entertainment.

Alot of them have VOD, but yes you cant link it to your local library, tivimate was not built for that, its app for iptv and everything IPTV panel offers. Just use emby for it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Script kiddie friend of mine wrote a script that turns the NAS into a m3u, but it's just raw links to my Videos....kinda suks.

jathe 9 Posted February 8, 2022 Share Posted February 8, 2022 Let me be more clear on this question. I have IPTV suscription, there is about 20, 25 categories on it.. I put the url as m3u tunner(I paid embypremiere). I wont to make manually tags or groups because the list is updated daily(sports events and channels are update daily). I don't care about guide, I just care about channel "groups" or "categories" to avoid to navigate on all channels. So, the question is: Can I add m3u url and get my channels groups or tags without manually do tags or groups? If yes, What properties I need in the m3u file ? In this article says only support 4 properties The following M3U properties are supported: tvg-name - Channel name tvg-id - Channel unique id tvg-chno - Channel number tvg-shift - Number of hours to shift the epg (only used as needed).

jathe 9 Posted February 9, 2022 Share Posted February 9, 2022 Is there any option to group/tag image? maybe "tvg-group-logo" or something like that. The automatic image creation from emby is very ugly(sorry). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
