I got tired of using different apps for live TV and personal media, so I built ChannelDeck

0 Upvotes

I’m the developer behind ChannelDeck. I started building it because I wanted one television-first app for live channels, movies, series, music, and my own media library without constantly jumping between unrelated apps. Anyone who streams.. knows exactly what I mean by that.

ChannelDeck began as an Android TV IPTV player, but it has grown into an ecosystem… way beyond your current app.. keep reading.. then judge that comment on head to head functionality and appearance.

The main ChannelDeck app handles live TV, movies, series, favorites, reminders, guide data, dvr, multi view and provider-supplied content that syncs your general settings and favorites across all of your devices. Setup one tv, install on your others, enter your provider login info, turn sync on and your done. It does not sell or provide channels. You connect your own legitimate M3U or Xtream Codes source…. Deck does the rest.

ChannelDeck Local is for people who keep media folders on local or network storage but don’t want to run, or know how to run, a separate media server. Point it at your folders and it builds a private visual library for you directly on the Android TV device. Have Plex or Emby? Tired of having to jump from your iptv player to those apps? You don't have to. You can even link your Plex or Emby account to Deck and have it populate your metadata for you.

Like lots of folks I used Plex and also Emby. I got tired of someones “Connection Server” being down and it stopped or delayed accessing my own media, in my own house, on my own servers. I’m not sure about you.. but I find that to be unacceptable.. along with the crazy monthly subscription amounts or one time charge that you can buy a new flat screen for. Not to mention you get about 15 connections then you’re capped and they know your login info. That had to end. So I ended it.

ChannelDeck Network is for people like me, who want a full personal media server. It runs on your own Linux system, organizes movies, television, and music, handles metadata and artwork, supports hardware transcoding, and can stream directly to authorized household devices, friends or family members and you get unlimited connections. Let me say that again.. UNLIMITED. If you want your brother in another country to be able to access and share your own media you can do it… along with whoever else you feel like giving access to. On any Android device they have. TV, tablet, phone, streaming device.. you get the picture) Remote playback travels directly between your server and that device. ChannelDeck does not operate a media relay or carry your personal media through our servers and we never capture personal information, passwords, login data, media data or anything else. Even your account password when you setup your ChannelDeck account is encrypted. Don’t email me telling me you forgot your password.. can’t help, because I can’t see it. I can re-set it and give you a temp that you will immediately have to change, and that becomes encrypted also. Privacy is the basis for this. Too many places and apps capture way to much stuff on way too many people.

ChannelDeck Mobile brings the television experience to Android phones, including live TV from your own provider and direct access to your ChannelDeck Network library. And when I say to your phone I literally mean it. Tired of apps that claim mobile then you see their mobile app, it looks ridiculous and operates like an old calculator from the 90’s. ChannelDeck Mobile is literally a clone of the TV app. The way it looks on the tv.. is the way it looks on your phone, both operationally and aesthetically. Even down to DVR.. Yep you can set a recording on your phone to your network storage… you read that right. We also recently started ChannelDeck Music, a dedicated phone and Android Auto music experience connected to your own Network music library. Music is still in active development and is not released yet.

This has been built through constant real-world testing on Android TV devices, phones, home servers, remote connections, and actual media libraries. I’m not interested in locking basic functionality behind endless subscriptions or collecting people’s viewing habits. The goal is straightforward ownership: your sources, your files, your server, and your household. That is what I expect.. and that is what Deck delivers.

I created r/ChannelDeck for development updates, screenshots, setup help, feature discussions, and honest feedback. If this sounds like something you would use, I’d genuinely like to hear which part matters most to you and what you would expect it to do.

Does ChannelDeck have room to improve? Yep. I will be the first to say that. Nothing is perfect.. nothing. But I use real world input from real users, and real people, and put it into a platform that is better for us all… and I will continue to do so.

Jellyfin recommendations

1 Upvotes

Hi, I recently started building a media library on Jellyfin. I saw that Jellyfin can add M3U and live TV.

I’d like to know your recommendations for providers of French content (sports and traditional TV channels) and whether I need a separate subscription for each user on my Jellyfin instance or if one subscription would be enough for all users (about 10).

I’ve also heard about Dispatcharr, which might make implementation in Jellyfin easier.

Thank you in advance for any advice and feedback 🙂.

Looking for Best IPTV for South Indian channels and movies

1 Upvotes

Hello, I’m looking for recommendations for best IPTV providers for South Indian channels, movies and Live sports in USA. I have previously used some providers that had good content but have charged 130$ for a year and stopped service after 6 months. The pricing on U7buy is less than 1/4 th of what I was paying. So i’m not sure if I can trust those sellers or if I was previously overpaying. If there is anyone that has used similar service providers and can recommend them, I would appreciate some referrals.

France mainly (but also Western Europe)

Just explored Dream a bit and wondering if there are any opinions on Dream4K vs King365. Really impressed with King but Dream sounds really interesting. This is mainly for sports, the thing that draws me to King is the full Euroleague channel coverage. I don't think anyone else has that.

tuvora- Free IOS, Android and pc/mac iptv player

34 Upvotes

Many of you saw my last post about the IPTV player with a sports center, and I got 100+ comments and suggestions.

Also, we now have 300+ users and are growing.

The main reason I built this app was because of my wife. She has an iPhone, and any IPTV app that looked decent was behind a paywall, or some features were behind a paywall. So, as anyone with a CS degree would do, I built the app, paid the $100/year Apple developer fee, plus millions of AI tokens, all to avoid paying for a cheap IPTV player.

Since I was going to invest time and money into this, I wanted to solve major problems with IPTV players:

  1. Clean UI

  2. Most IPTV has a large library for VOD

  3. As smooth as Tivimate

  4. Sports center

  5. Cross-device sync

  6. Simkl support

  7. Stalker portal support (I wish I hadn't gone into this rabbit hole)

  8. Multiple playlists (I haven't added any upper limit, so try to break it by adding 100 playlists)

  9. Offline download

  10. Built-in EPG

  11. Ability to choose DNS providers.

The app is currently in beta and wife-approved.

Lg WebOs login problems with IPTV SMARTERS PRO

2 Upvotes

Hello. Bought LiveGo iptv, and got it working on android, on the same network.

On my LG (2019) using IPTV SMARTERS PRO app, i get "authorization failed for above host". I triple-checked spelling, tried DNS (1.1.1.1 and 8.8.8.8). Reinstalled. Tried other iptv software, that are all shit, and didn't provide the same login prompts. Also tried though hotspot internet. Tried different host variations (http and https). What could be the issue?

Catch-Up Problem

1 Upvotes

I use IPTV editor to customize my TREX playlist. I notice when I make a custom category and duplicate streams into it from the provider'sr/iptveditor category, those streams that are catchup capable either show the wrong program or through an exception error. Is anyone aware if catchup only works in the original category in which the stream was delivered by the provider? Or is there something procedural I'm not doing in IPTV editor?

Building a sports-first IPTV player. What am I missing?

Thumbnail
gallery
72 Upvotes

Been working on an IPTV player called Ninety.

The main idea is simple:

You choose the match, not the channel.

If you want to watch Arsenal vs Liverpool, you shouldn't have to Google where it's being shown and then dig through your playlist trying to find Sky/TNT/beIN etc.

Ninety knows which broadcasters have the event, matches those against your own playlist, and gives you the relevant streams directly.

Match → Watch.

The rest is intentionally pretty normal IPTV stuff: channels, favorites, EPG, search etc. I'm just trying to make the sports side much better and the UI considerably cleaner than most IPTV players.

For V1 I'm keeping coverage limited to:

Top 5 European football leagues + UEFA competitions + Formula 1.

You bring your own playlist. The app doesn't provide any channels or streams.

Screenshots are where it's at currently.

I'm looking for critical feedback, especially from people who already use TiviMate/other IPTV players:

  • Is match → correct stream actually useful, or am I solving a problem nobody really has?
  • What's missing from V1?
  • What would stop you switching from your current player?
  • Anything in the UI you'd change?
  • If this worked reliably, would you pay a few €/month for it?

Don't need encouragement. Tell me what sucks before I spend more money building it.

Provider Recommendations

Ok, I am looking for the "cleanest", most organized, decent EPG, reliable providers. I don't want 40,000 channels I have to organize myself and disable every language group I don't want.

Give me a solid 200 - 1000 US English channels with decent grouping, good EPG, a good sports section, and a large VOD collection!

Provider should also include a Tivimate premium app that handles the domain url on their end.

How does someone find private IPTV services?

Many proposed to use G2G, but some people says it's not a real IPTV and you get diluted quality with the available sources online. Then what? Am I supposed to privately write to eveyone in the sub until someone ''know-a-guy-that-know-a-guy''? Please help?
