I’m trying to stick it to local services. Unfortunately the content they serve is not available on the seas, and the only way to access it is through iptv services. However, I’m not sure where to start of where to start looking.

    This is difficult to answer because we can’t link to things (see the rules to the right). I started off using publicly available channels, which is a convenient way to learn how it works. I just did a search for IPTV and in my search results I got a link to GitHub that provides you with information about how to use the public channels. You might like to try the same to start using it. If you want to get more content, the best way to find out about other IPTV services is to ask individuals you might have in your chat programs. For example, I have a friend on Steam that tells me about the services he uses. If you have the VLC media player this will help you a lot.

    People do not like sharing their IPTV providers, and instead gatekeep them to “protect them”. You’re gonna have a tough time getting a good one, good luck.

      exactly this.

      The first rule of Fight Club…

      There’s a few providers who have lasted the course, some as long as ten years, but they don’t have superiptv.xyz websites, they don’t have facebook groups, or twitter accounts. They rely on word of mouth and handle their business on telegram/discord etc

    It isn’t the easiest thing, so many reviews are just self promotion. There are some forums and discords that are pretty reliable with good discussion but it’s mostly trial and error to find one that works well for you.

    I found my iptv provider by asking in the class restricted forum of one of the private trackers I use.

        I agree, there is nothing in the megathread they linked to, or I’m blind. But if you follow it through to the FMHY megathread there is some iptv stuff, but not providers or anything like what I believe you to be looking for.

        Most good providers are very very private and most of their users are just as private. I have no leads but look forward to seeing if you turn anything up.

          I mean you see the irony here that you’re telling me to check the wiki without having a fuckin clue about what’s in the wiki. It’s not in the wiki mate.

            Most private trackers have a sub you can get for iptv. Also search GitHub for m3u8 files.
