TV channels only work with a VPN

[rutgerrules]

I'm using Windows 11 and I watch custom made TV channels with DizqueTV via an M3U list, but Jellyfin will only ever play the channels when my VPN is running, when I turn it off the channels will stop playing, and on startup they won't start playing until I turn my VPN on. Any ideas how to fix this? I'm a novice by the way lol.

Some Channels have IP blacklist/whitelist and that may be why.

Related to IP blacklists, etc., region blocking. If your VPN exit node is in a region that the provider allows then that would explain why it works with the VPN enabled.
