@Darkassassin07 https://ersatztv.org/ sounds like it fits your needs. It supports multiple media servers as a source and generates streams and guide information.

That does look about right. I’ll spin up a container and give it a shot when I’ve got a bit of free time.

Thanks!

The guides are pretty solid. The one that sometimes holds people up is ensuring you have a post-roll playout for the channel. I forgot that when going making new channels after a few months of initial config and it caused issues with channels rendering properly downstream.

I haven’t used it myself, but I’ve heard of ErsatzTV. Their docs note configuring Jellyfin as client.

I’ve used both. I had a few slight issues with dis transcoding (It was most likely a temporary Plex bug), moved to ers which wasn’t affected by the bug and stayed there, They are approximately equivalent and both great projects.

I can second this. Been running Ersatz for about 6 months now after getting endless frustration with Disque. Currently have 7 channels configured, upwards of 2 to 3 active at any given point.

One of the things that seems to help with not dropping streams as much is configuring it to treat your media shares as local to ersatz. I had tried mirroring my Disque setup with Plex managing the libraries via Plex Playlists and it was sloppy and dropped a lot between episodes/media.

Anyways, +1 for Ersatz.

I use Ersatz like others mentioned and it works fine, though I don’t fully understand how everything works. Following a guide was enough to get several channels setup, but since I also have an antenna and HDHomerun set up, I had to also use xTeve to combine the real and fake programming guides.

This works as expected in Emby (which means it probably also works in Jellyfin), but in Plex it breaks the guide as the channels get all mixed up with respect to their programming data meaning I never know what I’m going to be watching when I click on it. If you don’t have an antenna set up already, this probably won’t be an issue for you.

Following this. Anyone tried running ErsatzTV with jellyfin? Does it work with the app?

Yup. It’s easy to setup the tuner in JF. We use Plex and Jellyfin frontends without issue.
