I hope I am posting this in the correct area. I am located in Australia and have just recently moved into a new house. I have noticed that TV reception through my antenna connections were non existent, i spent some time trying to figure it out and then called in professional antenna company who informed me that the location I am in has blocked signals in all directions with trees, mountains, houses etc. So basically i am unable to receive Free to Air TV via antenna. On some research I found that our local stations here in Australia all have streaming Apps for their Live TV, I downloaded all these apps and setup accounts for them and they all work perfectly. As a long time Plex user I thought it would be ideal to add these into the Plex system so that I don’t have to constantly switch between Apps on my cumbersome Samsung TV and gain access to these through Plex, I went through the Channel selection of streaming services and the services all showed up in the list, along with Netflix, Prime etc. I have selected the services I wanted but back on the home page they are no where to be seen. Netflix and Prime recommendations and trending titles show up, and when I select Live TV where the guide displays for the channels there is no mention of these stations at all. The ones i am trying to get are 9Now, 7Plus, 10Play, SBS On Demand, ABC I View.

The Discover feature that has the streaming services does not function with the Live TV feature.

If you can get those stream URLs into a m3u playlist file, you may be able to “simulate” a tuner device for Plex.
