Transcript

Did you know that you can watch thousands of free television channels from around the globe on a free media player? Isn't that right? Right. First off, you're going to download VLC Media Player and I recommend downloading it from Ninite. Once you have that installed, we're gonna need our channels. So you're gonna look up IPTV GitHub. Then you're gonna follow this first link. Once the page loads, scroll down and look for the playlist and copy this link. With that copied, now open VLC. With VLC open, go to the top left corner and click Media. Then click on Open Network Stream. You will be greeted by this pop-up and now paste that URL. And now you have thousands of free channels. Come down to this toggle playlist option. Get a master list. Find one you wish to watch. Right click it and click Play. And I will say it's not perfect and it's a little buggy, but it is pretty awesome. Oh, and you can also directly inject it into your Jellyfin. So if I open up, go to my dashboard and click on Live TV, I can click the plus icon next to Tuner Devices. Set the tuner type to M3U. And right here under File or URL, drop in that link. Click save. And now back on my main page, I've got Live TV. Now we're watching some 70s goodness. Hey look, it's Charles Bronson. That's how you bunch of free. It's not perfect. It is gonna have issues. Fail channels are not gonna load. Just all part of it. You have thousands. So surely you'll find something to watch. But if you have any questions, ask. And as always, I appreciate your time and thank you.
