Decent IPTV apps for MacOS? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

Hey all. I'm currently trialling out IPTV providers, and one of the things that's putting me off entirely is the lack of decent Mac apps, specifically ones that allow for Xtream logins and not only m3u.

The provider I'm testing out suggested Smarters Lite from the iPad store – it runs fine, but it fullscreens with black borders down the sides.

Aside from that, I've tried IPTVnator (FOSS, so that's great) but doesn't actually display the content.

The only thing that works great for individual channel viewing is using Stremio with an add-on, but there's no EPG interface there, so no channel hopping and other features.

Any suggestions?

ETA: compatibility with Apple Silicon (M1/M2) chips would be vital too.

Yup, works flawlessly, and that's the setup I have at the moment. Just wondered if it was possible on the router though, since my main device is a laptop and I don't have it running all the time.

Router, no, unless your router is also a VM and you can run another VM for Jellyfin alongside it. You could get an inexpensive Intel box with a proc that has a roughly recent version of QuickSync on the iGPU, install Jellyfin there, and connect to your Jellyfin server from there.
