Feature Request: IPTV Backup/Fallback stream URLs and per-channel EPG Time Shift

[aldoSK 1]

Hi Emby Team,

I would like to request two new features regarding the IPTV (m3u8) functionality to improve the overall experience:

1. Backup / Fallback URLs for IPTV streams Currently, I am using an m3u8 playlist for my streams. It would be highly beneficial to have the option to add a secondary "backup links" for specific channels. If the primary stream goes offline or fails to load, Emby would automatically switch to the backup stream. I would personally use this for about 10-15 crucial channels to ensure they run without interruptions.

2. Per-channel EPG Time Shift (Offset) Could you also add an option to adjust or shift the EPG time for individual channels? For example, the ability to offset the guide by +1 hour or -1 hour. Sometimes the EPG source is in a different time zone than the actual broadcast, and a manual shift option would easily fix this synchronization issue.

Thank you for considering these additions! Keep up the great work.
