Does anyone have any tips on how to have a good experience with IPTV? So far I’ve tried 2 (well, maybe it’s just 1) IPTV providers and the experience just kinda sucks. Most of the time I can’t get channels to load and when I do, it usually takes like 30s-40s to load the channel. I definitely can’t reasonably browse channels.
Once a channel loads, it’s usually fine.
I’m using dispatcharr + Jellyfin.
My server is plugged in via ethernet, but it does stream over wifi to my TV.
Are there any settings I could change to speed things up? Or is there some way I could auto-remove channels that don’t load? Do I need faster internet speeds? Are the only reliable channels US channels? (I’m trying to watch non-US channels.)
I don’t use providers. I have my own playlist of sketchy channels. It’s not very fancy, but I can usually pirate whatever sports, movies, tv, etc.
If you search “m3u cleaner”, there are a few options. I tried some but they seemed slow and unreliable. I manually maintain my playlist.
As far as software goes, I use Kodi btw.
