High-Stability IPTV Stream Proxy and Automated Playlist Management

IPTV M3U8 / HLS Xtream Codes API XMLTV FFmpeg
Developing practical solutions based on this demand…

Pain Points (Public)

Broadcasters, resellers, and power users frequently face severe stream buffering during peak live sports events, bloated M3U playlists filled with dead links, and missing or out-of-sync XMLTV electronic program guide (EPG) data across client apps like TiviMate.

Suggested Approach (Public)

Develop a centralized IPTV proxy and playlist management middleware that connects via Xtream Codes API or M3U, runs automated FFmpeg stream health checks, aggregates multi-source XMLTV EPG data, and optimizes HLS/M3U8 stream delivery with smart fallback caching for uninterrupted 4K sports streaming.
