Tunarr

Create your own live TV channels from media on Plex, Jellyfin, Emby, or local files.

--- ## What is Tunarr? Tunarr lets you build custom live TV channels out of your existing media libraries — movies, TV episodes, music videos, or local files — and stream them as if they were real broadcast channels. Tune in by adding Tunarr's spoofed HDHomeRun tuner to Plex, Jellyfin, or Emby, or grab the M3U URL for any IPTV player like [Tivimate](https://tivimate.com/) or [UHF](https://www.uhfapp.com/). ## Features **Media Sources** - Connect Plex, Jellyfin, Emby, or local file libraries - Advanced search, filter, and sort across all connected libraries **Channel Management** - Drag-and-drop lineup editor - Filler content between programs (commercials, music videos, prerolls, branding) - Per-channel logos and automatic configuration backups **Scheduling** - Time-slot and random-slot scheduling tools - Web-based TV guide for viewing channel lineups **Playback & Integration** - Spoofed [HDHR](https://www.silicondust.com/hdhomerun/) tuner for Plex, Jellyfin, and Emby - M3U/IPTV output for [Dispatcharr](https://github.com/Dispatcharr/Dispatcharr), [Threadfin](https://github.com/Threadfin/Threadfin), [xTeVe](https://github.com/xteve-project/xTeVe), or any IPTV client - Stream channels directly in the browser - Per-channel audio language and subtitle preferences **Transcoding** - Hardware-accelerated transcoding: Nvidia NVENC, VAAPI, Intel QuickSync, macOS VideoToolbox - Multiple transcode profiles, configurable per channel ## Screenshots
