Can we manage M3u files ?

[petitsurfeur]

Hello
After extensive research, I came across your project. I installed and configured the Docker version, only to realize it's not what I was looking for.

Here's what I need; let me know if I missed something in configuring your project or if I'm completely off-base:
I'm looking for a web tool, preferably a Docker-based web application.
I want to be able to upload one or more M3U IPTV files and create automated tasks to modify, correct, sort, or delete them, ultimately generating a clean output file.
So far, I've been using a batch file that does all this via sed commands.

Is this the goal of your project, or is it something you're aiming towards?

At present, we use docker (obviously).

But what the app does is fetch the latest copy of the M3U and XML for TV services such as TheTVApp, MoveOnJoy, and TVPass. So when you add our XML and M3U to Jellyfin / Plex, you'll notice each channel has 2 to 3 different sources (depending on the channel). This ensures redundancy. So if one source goes down, you have multiple others to pick from.

At present, our project does not have a way to manage the channels. All our container does is strictly fetch the latest M3U and XML from our sources, and then you plug those files into your Media Server app. But as far as managing things such as which channels you want to show, you need to use a 3rd party app such as Cabernet.

Now with that being said, our docker container recently added support for external files being hosted. So if you have your own M3U and XML files you want to also mount with our container and then pull from Jellyfin or Plex, you can. It will host those as well.

But in regards to sorting, or removing certain channels, no. I use this TVApp2 docker image in combination with Cabernet:

Cabernet allows me to take the channels fetched by our TVApp2 container, and then sort / remove certain channel, so that I only fetch the channels I want.

There's plans for us to do something similar, but it's going to take some time to build, because it involves an entirely new addition to the web interface. Right now we're focusing on schedule configuration so that the container re-pulls the channel list every X hours / days so that you maintain the newest information.

I am doing something similar @Aetherinox, but also consolidate a daddylive playlist from Cabernet with the TVApp2 playlist in Threadfin which then passes one playlist to Jellyfin. The issue I am seeing is that when you input the TVApp2 playlist into Cabernet, it deduplicates the multiple sources from TVApp2 into one on the channel list. I want to be able to have all the sources available so I can set backup channels in Threadfin. It might be more of a Cabernet question/issue, but wanted to see if you had any suggestions.

I've experienced the same issue, and I believe this is an issue with Cabernet, or at least how Cabernet loads sources.

I suspect that it has to do with the something like the group id. At the moment, Cabernet only loads source 3 for me, and not the other two sources, unless a channel does not have source 3 available.
