Philosophy ========== The main goals for this playlist are listed below. **Quality over quantity** The less channels we support the better. - All channels should work well. - As much as possible channels should be in HD, not SD. - Only one URL per channel (no +1, no alternate feeds, no regional declinations) **Only free channels** If a channel is normally only available via commercial subscriptions it has nothing to do in this playlist. If on the other hand it is provided for free to everybody in a particular country, then it should be in this playlist. - No paid channels - Only channels which are officially provided for free (via DVB-S, DVB-T, analog, etc..) **Only mainstream channels** This is a playlist for everybody. - No adult channels - No channels dedicated to any particular religion - No channels dedicated to any particular political party - No channels made for a country and funded by a different country Feed sources ============ It can be quite hard to find up to date URLs, here's a list of sources: - https://github.com/iptv-org/iptv/tree/master/streams - https://github.com/iptv-restream/iptv-channels/tree/master/channels - https://github.com/Onemars/iptv-1/tree/master/channels - Youtube: As long as the channel is live and its URL doesn't change (check the age of the stream, the number of viewers..) - Dailymotion: Same criteria as for youtube Format ====== The m3u8 playlist is generated by `make_playlist.py`, using the `.md` files located in `lists`. Each .md file represesnts a group. The `<h1>` line is used as the group title. Only channels which URL column starts with `[>]` are included in the playlist. Channels which are not in HD are marked with an `Ⓢ`. Channels which use GeoIP blocking are marked with a `Ⓖ`. Channels which are live Youtube channels are marked with a `Ⓨ`. Issues ====== Only create issues for bugs and feature requests. Do not create issues to add/edit or to remove channels. If you want to add/edit/remove channels, create a pull request directly. Pull Requests ============= **Only modify .md files** If your Pull Request modifies channels, only modify .md files. Do not modify m3u8 files in your pull request. **Adding a new Channel** To add a new channel, make a Pull Request. - In your Pull Request you need to provide information to show that the channel is free. - Use imgur.com to host the channel logo and point to it. - If you have a valid stream, add it and put `[>]` in front of it. - If you don't have an stream for the channel, add `[x]()` in the url column and place your channel in the Invalid category. - If you have a stream but it doesn't work well, put the channel in the Invalid category and put `[x]` in front of the url. - If you're adding geoblocked URLs specify it in your PR and specify which country they're working in. The PR will only be merged if these URLs can be tested. **Removing a Channel** To remove a channel, make a Pull Request. In your Pull Request you need to provide information to show that the channel is only available via a private paid subscription. Note: Public taxes (whether national or regional, whether called TV License or not) do not constitute a private paid subscription. If a stream is broken, simply move the channel to the invalid category and replace `[>]` with `[x]` in the url column.
