Would you mind sharing what exactly you’re looking/asking for?
The subject and screenshot are not as self-explaining as you might think…
General information:
There’s 2 independent domains of live tv:
Plex’ own online media source Free “Live TV” Streaming
Live TV as part of a DVR integration → Watching Live TV | Plex Support
Yes. And is there also a way to add live TV channels to m3u file playlist in video from Plex server or not?

Not natively… is that what you’re asking for?
There’s already an existing suggestion about this – the suggested solution is to use a 3rd party app that’ll simulate a compatible tv tuner for Plex in order to integrate those streams
Many IP TV providers provide a channel list with TS streams defined in an M3U playlist, often with HLS seperation of streams to support multiple bit rates. They also use a groupid tag to place channels into a sutiable categorisation for use in the EPG TV guides.
Please consider adding support for M3U as a tuner type in DVR/Live TV. I have just tried out Emby’s version of this, and it kills Plex dead in my house for live tv.
Edit:
found a more popular request and updated the link
You can use xteve to get m3u and channel guide into Plex.
