That’s quite awesome.
Would love to see other providers for other languages tho
It would be freaking cool as a content provider for Jellyfin.
If somebody could provide me a write up of how to do that I’ll be very grateful
I’m not a developer, but looking at the docs, shows several plugins able to stream from external sources.
Looks like Jellyfin refers to these plugins as “channels”, if the Jellyfin API isn’t enough, you can create custom endpoints.

Interesting, thank you
I’ve found these two links in their docs, they might be of use:
NextPVR
Provides access to Live TV, Program Guide, and Recordings from
https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin-plugin-nextpvr
Antennas
Takes your tuners in TVHeadEnd and emulates a HDHomeRun, in order to connect to Jellyfin’s Live TV and DVR features. It requires additional setup and configuration, but is a useful alternative to the TVHeadEnd plugin.

The following links are 3rd party plugin repos, which were obtained from a reddit post, and I haven’t visited them yet. Expect questionable code at best:
LazyMan: Play NHL & MLB games through Jellyfin
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/crobibero/Jellyfin.Channels.LazyMan/master/manifest.json
N0tflix
YoutubeDL: Youtube-dl API for recieving streamable links ComedyCentral: WIP plugin to provide Comedy Central content Crunchyroll: WIP plugin to provide Crunchyroll content NRK: Plugin to provide content from NRK web tv Pornhub: Plugin to provide content from Pornhub Redtube: Plugin to provide content from Redtube
Neat idea, would be interesting if it used your own content from DLNA, Jellyfin, etc. The code looks simple enough that it should be possible to add a plug-in/provider for that stuff.
I think that it’s not going to have a long lifespan though. Being a simple and easy front end for various streaming sites might paint a target on it. Rightly or Wrongly.
I can see it having a longer life if it were to integrate some other technologies aside from the above like IPFS, BitTorrent, etc. The libraries to do that are already readily accessible eg LibP2P. Though that again might paint a bigger target.
Either way it’s definitely really neat and I’m sure a fun project to fork and explore if someone is feeling up to that kind of work.
Are providers English only?
