## What it is
A Python tool that scrapes publicly shared IPTV live-stream sources, tests each link's latency on the local network, and generates an optimized m3u playlist file. It includes a built-in Flask server (port 9527) to serve the generated playlist and can run in Docker, e.g. on a router.

## Use cases
- generate an m3u playlist of working IPTV channels for my network
- collect and aggregate free live TV stream sources
- test IPTV stream links for latency and availability
- serve a live TV playlist to Kodi or a TV app on my LAN
- run an IPTV source aggregator on my router via Docker

## When to choose
- you want a locally tested, speed-optimized m3u playlist rather than a generic shared list
- you can run Python or Docker on your local network for accurate latency testing

## When to avoid
- you need a polished GUI player rather than a playlist generator
- you cannot run scripts locally, since remote playlists may be slow or dead
- you need TV/radio channel separation, which is not yet handled
