British channels are not all going to be there, thanks to TV licensing laws

these channels appear to be foreign, which do not require a license to watch

btw, can you make it so we can watch in the browser?
I could look into it. I might be able to make an iframe with the video in it, not sure if it would work.

This is a awesome idea!
Clone the JSON file and allow PRs to add new channels.
Allow Multiple JSON files.
I get the data from:https://iptv-org.github.io/iptv/channels.json
If you want to add a new channel, make a PR here:
I don’t supply the data, I just parse it.
I’ll make a browser player in a bit!
If you can do it, that would be pretty great. I tried with just the <video> element, but that doesn’t support m3u8 videos.
You need to improve the searchingbbc returns nothing, but a search for BBC returns 8 channels
Good point, I don’t have a great solution at the moment.

If you want to use some JS… do this:
const searchTerm = "example term";
searchTerm = searchTerm.toUpperCase(); // or .toLowerCase()
I belive that there is somthing like that in PHP (it may be strtolower()) but that causes the other issue of not all titles are in caps, and not all titles are in lowercase.
Maybe there is a function to convert the first letter of each word? I could look into it.
I think I how I’m gonna make the browser player…
