I know it’s probably because there’s money to be made.

I just wish there was a good place to discuss IPTV providers that wasn’t full of sketchy resellers over promising and under delivering. You’d think they could at least sort out their EPGs as most I have used are like 80% complete at best.

Not asking for provider recommendations, not sure if that’s allowed here. Just wondering if y’all know of a place where that shit can be discussed in a neutral and honest environment?

    Plex doesn’t support ATSC 3.0 yet, specifically the audio. So it can’t play ATSC 3.0 broadcasts.

      That’s an ffmpeg issue. You can manually upgrade ffmpeg to the beta and it works fine. Or you can use an interposer like https://github.com/whichken/hdhr-ac4 to do it without touching plex itself.

      So yes it doesn’t “support” it properly… but that doesn’t mean it’s not possible. Nor does that mean your antenna is useless.

          I’m not going to give you instructions simply because if you don’t know what you’re doing, you will brick your plex setup. Use the docker container given as a transparent proxy. You won’t brick anything that way.
