Update German channels (#1) 
* Add new links for: ZDF, 3sat, ARTE, ONE, ZDFinfo, ZDFneo
* Remove links for: RTL II and RTLplus, those links are not Germanm, but
Hungarian (.hu); in Germany there are chanels with the same name, but
they are not free
* Remove non-free channels: RTL, SAT.1, ProSieben, VOX, kabel eins,
sixx, DMAX, TELE 5 SAT.1 Gold, ProSieben MAXX, NITRO (those channels are
private channels and according to ubuntuusers.de (see below) are only
accesible through a webbrowser after (free) registration.)
* I've used links in HD quality and added "HD" to the channel names,
because the channels show the "HD" besides their logos as well.
* Changes link for "ARD" = "Das Erste", because the current link seems
to be VERY slow to load, when you switch the channels. The new link
seems to be a little faster.

Used sources:
* https://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/Internet-TV/Stationen
* https://github.com/jnk22/kodinerds-iptv/blob/master/iptv/clean/clean_tv_main.m3u
* https://github.com/jnk22/kodinerds-iptv/blob/master/iptv/clean/clean_tv.m3u

According to the (German) README "Kodinerds IPTV" is a collection of free-to-air
streams for TV and radio stations.

README.md

Free TV

This is an M3U playlist for free TV channels around the World.

To use it point your IPTV player to https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Free-TV/IPTV/master/playlist.m3u8.

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

Format

The m3u8 playlist is generated from the .md files by the .py script.

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 Ⓖ.

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.
