Dispatcharr is pretty neat for m3u streams.
Working great with jellyfin

    Nice! I'm giving it a go with some dumb free m3u's now and so far it's been pretty great. I haven't tied it into Jellyfin or Plex yet but one I decide on a decent iptv provider it'll be happening.

    Had some issues with streams not loading in Jellyfin.
    I needed to set up a user-agent and streaming-profile like this:
    User-Agent: Lavf/61.9.107
    Streaming profile:
    -> command: ffmpeg
    -> parameters: -http_persistent 0 -extension_picky 0 -i {streamUrl} -c:v copy -c:a copy -fflags +genpts+discardcorrupt -b:v 4M -maxrate 4M -bufsize 8M -f mpegts pipe:1

    This is (still depending on your m3u source) to avoid most of the transcoding or double transcoding of the streams :)

    The dispatcharr page is mostly self-explanatory but had some issues with the m3u and epg.
    Make sure to properly align your streams with the epg guide you are pulling.
    Do all (M3U and EPG XMLTV) through dispatcharr
    Provide these to Jellyfin:
    M3U: http://dispatcharr:9191/output/m3u/ActiveChannels
    XML EPG: http://dispatcharr:9191/output/epg/ActiveChannels?tvg_id_source=tvg_id

    (Notice: I am using docker. I also set up a group for channels so I can de-/activate channels however I please without deleting and recreating them constantly.)
