Recommended IPTV Setup w/Groups? - Paul Muldoon - 2024-09-07
I'm a long time user of Plex and a little bit of Emby, and now circling back to Jellyfin to give it another go around. Little background on my setup is a Proxmox server with LXC containers, UnRaid for media storage and an itpv subscription. I'm also familiar with GetChannels and have experimented with that in the past.
But for Jellyfin....... What do you think is the best or preferred way to bring in your ITPV channels and keeping them sorted and grouped?
In some limited testing, I have added to 2 M3U lists and xml data to Jellyfin, 1 for Movies, and 1 for Sports (with the help of IPTVBoss to separate things). And I can see those channels in Jellyfin's Live TV. But it appears they are all combined into the Guide and Channels list. Is there a way to filter the guide to a particular M3U list or 'group'?
I see there are categories for Movies, Sports, Kids, and News. But when I try to filter on just Sports, the guide then goes blank? And can you add to that for your own custom categories?
Is anyone adding in and managing this through NextPVR or TvHeadend plugins? Is that the better preferred solution? GetChannels dvr appears a little better letting me look at each M3U list separately, but it lacks in the Media functions of Jellyfin, Plex, Emby, etc.
I also set 2 channels as favorites. However, those channels are not showing up under the favorites section?
Any feedback is appreciated as I continue that search for the 'perfect setup'

in emby you can use the tag feature to seperate.. i have yet to find a solution in jellyfin as much as i want to use it. It lacks some of these features that been in the program since the start/separation.
