Open TV is an ultra fast IPTV player for Linux, MacOS and Windows.

Since the last time I posted here, Open TV has changed a lot. I took all the feedback from lemmy, github and hackernews and worked very hard on the last few months to deliver the best IPTV experience on desktop. Here's all the cool new stuff:

  • EPG and EPG Notifications (TV guide)
  • Download vods and movies
  • Re-stream channels to allow multiple devices/people to watch from a single iptv subscription
  • Optional keyword search
  • Editable sources in Settings
  • Option to refresh sources on start in Settings
  • Custom sources, channels and groups you can share and import with the .otv, .otvg and .otvp formats
  • Support for custom http headers in m3u
  • Much more robust m3u processing
  • Vastly improved error handling and reporting with both in-app error messages and logging
  • More settings added like default volume and default view
  • Scroll to load more
  • Improved hotkeys and UI/UX
  • A ton of bug fixes
  • The app was added to scoop (scoop.sh)!

Open TV is a solo open source project. If you enjoy using the app, feedback and bug reports are super appreciated. Donations are also very welcome and always appreciated, no matter the amount.

Yes Android TV and Tablets will be just as a priority as phones. I'm just in need of more support in terms of donations

It downloads the channel you selected as an m3u8 playlist and serves it over http. Most iptv providers only allow a single connection per subscription, the re-streaming allows you to have friends and other devices watch the same channel you're watching.

Thanks. For the mpv params, that's a bug, I'll be looking into this.

Relatives using proprietary/borderline mslware/slow iptv apps. I wanted them to use something better

Open TV is an ultra-fast IPTV app that uses mpv for playback.

After rewriting the app in Rust (tauri specifically) for the last 3 months, Open TV is finally on flathub 🎊🎊

The app also now supports multi sources and other niceties.

If you use hypnotix or other IPTV apps, please give my app a try!

Like the app? Please consider donating. Open TV is a completely solo effort. It would help me allocate more time to its development.

I'm sorry to say this but, your way of picking software is wrong. You should always look for the open source software first, then use proprietary software.

I wouldn't be critical of someone for using Photoshop and Premiere because there's no viable alternative for professionals in this area. But using Plex when Jellyfin exists is just wrong. I personally have a jellyfin instance, and there's nothing jellyfin can't do when compared to Plex.

Encouraging proprietary software makes them stronger and erodes our rights. Like using chrome instead of Firefox is voting for a future where remote device attestation and forced DRM is a normal thing. Do you want the corps to eradicate your free will?

It's a bit unbelievable that someone who frequents foss communities would also pay a monthly subcription for an app...
