Hey all, just wanted to see if anyone had any resources on how to watch live TV. Big Brother starts tonight and the fiance would like to watch it but I don’t have cable. Anything you guys can recommend?

There’s 2400 channels there, but it’s kind of hit and miss… some aren’t broadcasting or are geo-blocked etc but there’s still a lot of ok ones to go through.
Pluto seems like the best option for tonight but I will absolutely be bookmarking this site. Thanks for the help!
Is there a way to get this into Jellyfin?
I haven’t used Jellyfin but I know Emby (what Jellyfin was forked from) can do live TV or IPTV. You may need something to create an EPG file if one isn’t provided. There are tools to do it if you search for them.
I believe you need emby premium to use the live TV feature, but I’m not 100% on that
If jellyfish can do m3u playlists, you’d just need to grab a playlist off something like https://github.com/iptv-org/iptv#playlists or https://matthewgall.codes/mirrors/iptv/src/branch/master/streams
Big brother is CBS right? You might actually be able to pick that up with a good old antenna, the 1080i digital signal isn’t that bad either
I bought an antenna for $40 and then got a HDHomeRun. Now I can watch live TV inside Plex or through the HDHomeRun local IP address.
Pluto, if it has what you’re after. It has commercials but it’s free so that relationship at least makes sense.
This sounds perfect! Thank you!
You can also go to alibaba and search for iptv. Very cheap as well but you have to do some legwork if you want to thin out the number of channels you get.
Or just go to iptv.community ask for a free trial, download m3u, open in vlc. Does it work well? Purchase a month for like 5€ and keep watching.
