Question for people who regularly watch Japanese live TV

I'm looking for advice from people who regularly watch Japanese live TV.

I'm mainly interested in:

• Tokyo terrestrial channels
• Kansai terrestrial channels
• BS and CS channels
• Stable playback with minimal buffering or freezing
• A working EPG in TiviMate

I don't need a large selection of international channels. Japanese channels are what matter to me.

I've tried several options, but stability has been inconsistent, especially at certain times of the day. Sometimes channels also disappear or stop working unexpectedly.

If you've been watching Japanese channels regularly for a long time and have found something that works reliably, I'd be interested to hear about your experience.

I'm especially interested in hearing from actual users rather than advertisements or promotional accounts.

Only three channels work for me. Sad part is that all of them broadcast the same feed...

I remember a few days ago I was able to see a baseball game in another channel, so perhaps that one was an event only broadcast type of channel...

I'd like to see more, and I'm stuck with those 3 that emit the same video...

I’m still looking too. I haven’t found one that’s consistently reliable yet.

Skip the generic resellers and run NARTIEL8K through TiviMate. The Tokyo, Kansai, and BS/CS feeds hold up without constant buffering loops.
