Hi All

What are people doing here, or not when it comes to Plex and IPTV. Some years ago I had TVHeadend setup with a proxy to work with plex (live channels). Is this still the way or is there a better solution or do people just avoiding using Plex and IPTV together?

tvHeadend w/ tvhProxy here. Our TV comes in from our provider as UDP multicast groups. Took me a while to get it set up, and a bit of heartburn the couple of times that channels have been shuffled, but it’s been running here for nearly 5 years nows. xTeve seems to be popular as it integrates better w/ PMS, but that won’t support my UDP multicast requirement.

Hi, I am also looking to integrate my iptv.  
They provide a m3u file with the senders/ips, or alternatively an vlc playlist (xspf).  
I also only found an old tutorial how to integrate it:  
[https://haefelfinger.ch/posts/2018/2018-10-31-fiber7-tv7-with-plex-media-server/](https://haefelfinger.ch/posts/2018/2018-10-31-fiber7-tv7-with-plex-media-server/)

tvHeadend and tvhProxy seems to be much more active tough.
