IP​ TV 1.2.1.0 bulk stream addition

[omokehinde 3]

I installed the IPTV 1.2.1.0 plugin on my emby server.

Whilst adding the http stream url i noticed you can only add one at a time.

My m3u weblist has over 500 movies urls, is there a way i can bulk import via csv or xml?

Hi, not currently, but possibly in the future.

you can add your m3u file directly in liveTV, there no actual need of the additional plugin

Add TV Source, Select M3U, select the m3u file in the next screen.

 

leave the other settings blank unless you actually need extra settings to connect to the streams (provided by your iptv provider)

My IPTV provider has VOD movies and series. How can I configure the M3U plugin to display the movies and series in separate section other than the 'live tv'? @mickle026

Emby doesn't support that (at least I don't think so), they appear as individual channels.

This sounds like a evergreen, unfortunately...

I have a question. Most IPTV providers have a web browser that you can log into. Why not make some kind of portal that lets the user use his credentials through EMBY to access the IPTV? I mean They're almost there. You click on IPTV and it goes to your web portal and enters your username and password and you're in less and less stress on your server.
