It's a sign of the times when someone misunderstands what "Live TV" means. lol

So I am literally streaming ATSC channels from my roof antenna with JellyFin. I didn't feel like paying a subscription fee (and anyways - no paid service has exactly the right XMLTV format JellyFin expects), so I wrote a scheduled task which scrapes the listings and ingests them with the REST API.



I didn’t misunderstand what you meant. I just meant you can “hack” the live TV feature of Jellyfin, and use it to create a “live” tv experience from local media.
