Hey! I am looking for an easier way to stream live TV, specifically sports. Currently we access streams via freemediaheckyeah on an Intel NUC which has Linux, Firefox and a keyboard and mouse, HDMI to TV.

I have a proxmox server in another location which has Plex, jellyfin, Debian and some other stuff. We cast from our phones to the Chromecast.

I'm wondering if there's a way I can eliminate the living room NUC and stream from my proxmox server to a Chromecast. Or something similar that removes the keyboard mouse browser combo. Looking for reducing power and heat usage partly and simplicity.

Is freemediaheckyeah an IPTV service? Plex or Jellyfin can manage IPTV streams. Plex needs additional software (e.g., xTeVe) to take an m3u playlist and convert it into a tuner.

Where do you find a more reputable IPTV service? Searching for them shows a lot of questionable sites that I'm not eager to give my info to.

You could host something like IPTVnator on your Proxmox server: https://github.com/4gray/iptvnator
