That's a smart move using an IPTV app with a smart TV. I did something similar and it's been great. The flexibility to choose channels and the cost-effectiveness compared to traditional TV boxes is a big plus. It's definitely a more customizable way to enjoy TV.
I did many thing before and never turn back to subscription. The journey is not easy but it paid off.
I started with simple iptv app and using google search for m3u playlist i begin to built a nice set of liabrary for my own use.
Then those m3u string seem to lagged off and stop working after sometime. I brought a ubox and it serve me for some 7 years.
After that the iptv channels seem to be lagging off too.
I then begin to explore iptv extreme, ott navigator, smart iptv and many more. Well, they provide me with some nice channels.
Then i was serving github and try a chinese iptv app and these app far excel those of the mainstream app.
They support txt playlist, the app support p2p, rstp, rmtp, mitv, mac id code, ts as well as m3u.
Since then the world of iptv has been a fun game to me. When i found that it provide you to link it to your own server that open up
to sharing with many of my friends, after i update those playlist.
Today, i am exploring those open source chinese developer tvbox app, which allow multiple vod and iptv channels all within a single app and switching
between different channels is a brief and the best part is it can be sideload into my smart tv.
There is no turning back to tv box any more. DIY is the answer.
