## What it is
A continuously auto-updated collection of Chinese TV live-stream sources in m3u8 playlist format, refreshed every 15 minutes from live-stream websites. The playlist file can be loaded directly into players like Kodi or VLC via its URL.

## Use cases
- watch Chinese live TV channels in VLC
- load an auto-updating IPTV playlist in Kodi
- get a long-lived m3u8 playlist for China TV streams
- find working mainland China TV live stream sources
- play Chinese TV channels on a media player via network playlist URL

## When to choose
- you want a maintained, auto-refreshing m3u playlist of Chinese TV channels
- you use a player like Kodi or VLC that accepts a remote m3u8 URL

## When to avoid
- you need channels outside mainland China without a VPN/proxy (HK/Macau/Taiwan channels require circumvention tools)
- you need a full IPTV management application rather than a playlist file
- you require a formally licensed or guaranteed-uptime streaming service

## Facets
- artifact type: dataset
- maturity: active
- function: streaming
- domain: media, entertainment
