Heard about IPTV for so long and finally delving in, learning lots but still feel I know next to nothing. So I'd like to ask some questions.
How can I best get a good understanding of how it all works? So there are many different platforms but they all take from a small number of content providers yes? Then they have different methods of getting this to you... Generally though a username and password, or an m3u link which contains your username and password. You can load this into a large number of different apps - and each of those apps has a different style of UI, is that correct? What are the most popular apps etc? Are there other ways also, what are the main ones?
So many IPTV services seem to vary so wildly I don't understand. Some are clunky as hell and some look really slick. Some just have lists of movies randomly others have netflix style options. How do I find a good one?
I started this journey looking for the 24/7 tv series looping channels which I love. Are they all the same or do some have better quality etc? Some are very old but some should be hd but are not, I don't get it. I just want that and a reasonably decent delection of movies and tv series - but with a really nice interface. Its hard to know where to start!
One other question is technically how does this even all work? I'm kinda fascinated as to where it all comes from and how come a teenager in his bedroom seems to be able to set up his own iptv service?
Sorry for the noob questions but any commentary appreciated.
