Foire aux questions
You can add your own streams in Live TV that are specified in an M3U file. This M3U file consists of a list of "m3u8" streams. You create this M3U file according to your wishes and then place it on your own web server. In the home network, a local web server is sufficient, as is often supplied with NAS drives. Then you add the M3U URL in Live TV. Done!
How does the mapping to the channels work?
The m3u file must use exactly the names for the stream names that Live TV uses. You can find the exact names of the channels in Live TV under "Settings" > "Channel Selection".
I have added a stream in my m3u file, but unfortunately it does not appear. Why?
You can only specify names in the M3U file that also exist in Live TV. All other names are currently ignored by the app and not displayed. In addition, you must ensure that your streams are in the "m3u8" format. Other formats are not supported (rtmp, etc.)
Where can I find my own streams in Live TV now?
Own streams are assigned to the existing channel names. Switch to the "Stream" tab, where the channel names will appear if you have assigned a stream.
Who is the manual addition of own stream sources suitable for?
For all those who are a little more familiar with the stream subject and for whom terms like M3U are not Chinese. For all those who use a TV receiver or television in the home network that can stream the TV program further in the local network (e.g. in higher resolution) and who want to receive this program with Live TV. We therefore do not provide technical support for this feature. We explicitly point out that this feature is intended for this personal use case.
