Issue #483: these circled-letter suffixes are in-list markers for
human readers (subscription-required, geo-blocked, YouTube-sourced,
etc.), but were leaking into the generated tvg-name verbatim (e.g.
tvg-name="Rai 1 Ⓖ"), breaking EPG matching for any provider keying
off channel name. Now stripped from tvg-name only; the display name
after the comma still shows the marker as before.
- Peru: Panamericana TV, ATV+ Noticias, Karibeña TV had dead CDN URLs
(host resolution failures / 404s), replaced with working sources.
Top Latino TV: no replacement found, moved to Invalid.
- Somalia: MM Somali TV's CDN URL was a 404, switched to its official
YouTube channel (768k subs, verified). The other 7 channels share
the same ap02.iqplay.tv / mediavisionuae.com infrastructure, which
is currently unreachable (connection timeouts) - but iptv-org's own
community list uses the exact same URLs right now too, so this
looks like a provider-side outage rather than dead/wrong links.
Left unchanged rather than moving working entries to Invalid on a
possibly-temporary outage.
- Macau: all 6 TDM channels' CDN (live4.tdm.com.mo) no longer
resolves. TDM's site is now a heavy Vue SPA with no stream URL in
the static HTML or common API guesses - moved to Invalid.
Add ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country codes via tvg-country attribute
to all #EXTINF lines, enabling IPTV players to filter and display
channels by country.
