For a no hacks alternative, I built TV Explorer. It puts the channel's published HLS stream into your browser with no interim steps. Uses the public GitHub list of more than 10,000 free channels. https://tvexplorer.live
that's INCREDIBLE! thanks so much for creating and sharing this!

Looks potentially very nice but the majority of the channels I tried were "blocked in my area or not broadcasting"
Thanks for the feedback and I'm sorry that happened. Because the data comes from a public GitHub list of channels, the app has no way to know what will be geoblocked for you (or not) or actually online at the moment (or not) until you try to tune it -- very much like an old analog TV. But... TV Explorer does keep track of what's tunable (with status lights down the left column) and also lets you scan in the backgroun…
Seems to be missing some context. What is this used for? Piracy?
It's a CLI that lets you select a movie, finds a matching stream from streaming websites, transcodes it, burns in subtitles in real time, and tells your TV to play it.

Claude helped me out for sure, i'm not a DLNA or FFMPEG beast, but i solved a problem I had and that's what matters. If it solved a problem you have, even better.

Really great site though!
Quick suggestion: let us resize the channel browser when it's horizontal, and perhaps allow collapsing it altogether

Magnificent thing you made, and the scanning is awesome. My problem is that it seems that I can't put more than one filter of the same type on i.e. (Spanish AND English), and if I switch between languages within the filter, the scan is reset.
It does only allow filtering by one language at a time, but you can build your hotbar of the stations you like that you find across any filters.
The scan works on the displayed results. If you change the filter, it starts with the new list -- but all the results are saved regardless.
Hope that makes it a bit bitter!

In case anyone else runs into this: the Stats section was not shown for me by default and I had to enable it in Settings. Really great site though! Quick suggestion: let us resize the channel browser when it's horizontal, and perhaps allow collapsing it altogether
When your window is wide enough (on desktop), you should be able to drag the split point between the TV display and the channel list.

Generally filling up the buffer is fine. It's perfectly normal that after viewing a certain number of documents one has to manually decide where to go. You know what you need. A button that goes back but instead of going to the prior document goes to the first document with a different domain than the current one.
Yeah, I'm not convinced it's really the site's fault... I can understand the logic of wanting the back button to go back a channel, but also I generally want to go "out" of a page when I hit the back button, so there's no real one-size-fits-all answer. But speaking only for myself, if history.pushState was removed from my browser I would probably be happier in the end. JavaScript SPA's abuse it 10x more often than th…

That is an unbelievably slick thing that you've got there. It feels very light-weight, it's approximately instantly-responsive. Back button works. I don't understand the stats (or my contribution to them), but whatever. (the closed-captioning pop-up causes some overlay issues for me, though) moar edit: Upon further review with my very not-special desktop box, I'm reasonably confident that this is the quickest, most-r…
> Back button works Maybe a little too well... I tried a whole bunch of channels to get an idea of which ones work, and my history was too full to get out of the site. Maybe every channel change doesn't need to push to your history list.
