Pluto for Channels

This simple Docker image will generate an M3U playlist and EPG optimized for use in Channels and expose them over HTTP.

Channels supports custom channels by utilizing streaming sources via M3U playlists.

Channels allows for additional extended metadata tags in M3U playlists that allow you to give it extra information and art to make the experience better. This project adds those extra tags to make things look great in Channels.

Set Up

Running the container is easy. Fire up the container as usual. You can set which port it runs on.

docker run -d --restart unless-stopped --name pluto-for-channels -p 8080:80 jonmaddox/pluto-for-channels

You can retrieve the playlist and EPG via the status page.
