IPTV & Live TV

MediaHarbour can load IPTV independently of Jellyfin. Only add streams and playlists you are authorized to access.

Add a playlist

Open IPTV Sources. Enter an M3U playlist URL or use the available local upload workflow, then choose Download / Load IPTV. XMLTV programme data is optional.

Built-in demo

For testing, MediaHarbour pre-fills a demo stream using Big Buck Bunny. Select Download / Load IPTV to load the demo, or replace the URL with your own playlist.

XMLTV / EPG

If your provider or authorized source supplies XMLTV data, add its URL/source in IPTV Sources. Guide quality, channel matching and programme metadata depend on the data supplied by that source.

Multiview

MediaHarbour can display multiple compatible live streams using its multiview interface. Performance depends on the Apple TV model, stream formats, bitrates and network conditions.
