Health score?A 0-100 score computed nightly from four factors: maintained (40%: recent commits and steady activity), popular (25%: GitHub stars, log scale), easy to install (20%: platforms, install notes, setup guides, Docker image) and light to run (15%: minimum RAM, ARM support). When the source code has been checked, a fifth factor, security check (20%: automated scan for committed secrets, unsafe desktop-app settings, known-vulnerable dependencies and project hygiene; any serious finding caps it at 20), is added. Factors without data are left out and the rest are rescaled.

Common questions

Do I point Plex, Emby, or Jellyfin directly at the IPTV provider playlist?

No, you point the media server at one stable tuner endpoint from IPTV Tunerr. It handles probing, fallbacks, guide shaping, and client quirks upstream.

Can I use IPTV Tunerr for only the tuner or only the guide?

Yes, it can be used for just the tuner, just the guide, or as the full control plane in front of Plex, Emby, and Jellyfin.

What happens if my EPG has missing programmes or mismatched tvg-id values?

IPTV Tunerr repairs, merges, and publishes guide data instead of just passing broken tvg-id values through. It can merge provider XMLTV, external XMLTV, optional HDHomeRun guide data, placeholder fallback, and SQLite-backed guide state.

Can it create catch-up or VOD-style libraries from IPTV sources?

Yes, it can generate near-live catch-up libraries when Live TV alone is not enough.

Can I migrate to another media server without replacing the existing tuner and guide identity?

It supports staged migration and can keep the same tuner and guide identity online for Plex while pre-rolling Emby.
