Daddylive not working.
I self-host a copy of cabernet (https://github.com/cabernetwork/cabernet) which creates an m3u with all the streams from daddylive plus a few others.

hahaha I learned everything I know from /r/Datahoarder, /r/buildapcsales(for the HDDs, currently have 24tb's) and ErsatzTV for the IPTV server.

Wanted - IPTV Front-end
Greetings, all! I am attempting to set up a fantasy TV station for my friends. Currently, I am using ersatztv for the backend, which provides me with all of the content and channel creation and management. So far I am happy with it because it provides hardware transcoding for the streams on consumer hardware.

Is there a service that can turn my tv shows into a channel?
Yep, another one is https://ersatztv.org/

What's the best way to create your own TV channels?
Personally, my preferred one is ErsatzTV. It's for a couple of reasons but they mainly come down to not being tied directly to the media server application itself.

Chocolate, an opensource alternative to Plex
Projects like DizqueTV and https://ersatztv.org/ were created to emulate a HDHomeRun to make “fake live tv” available in Plex’s Live TV interface, using Library content to emulate live TV channels you would pick up over an antenna.

Gamechanger Plex TV channels with dizquetv. Didn't know about this until tonight!
I have a potato (J4105) Plex server and tried DizqueTV, ErsatzTV and Jason's DizqueTV fork very recently. But I couldn't get it stable unfortunately. When one series would work great, another one wouldn't, or even refused to play. Or certain program boundaries made the player crash from time to time. And watermark overlays were another story of it's own.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing cabernet and ErsatzTV you can also consider the following projects:
PlutoIPTV - Grab EPG & M3U from Pluto.tv
dizquetv - Create live TV channels from your own media. Access the streams using the simulated HDHomerun tuner or the generated M3U URl.
jellyfin-ffmpeg - FFmpeg for Jellyfin
xTeVe - M3U Proxy for Plex DVR and Emby Live TV
node-ffmpeg-mpegts-proxy - Simple proxy for leveraging ffmpeg to convert any source URL into MPEG-TS over HTTP
fHDHR - fun Home Distribution Hiatus Recreation
web2tv - A set of script to pull Web Live TV into M3U and XMLTV files.
jellyfin-tizen - Jellyfin Samsung TV Client
