A terminal iptv player written in bash
termv is a small bash script that allows you to select an iptv stream using fzf and play it using mpv.
The list of channels is obtained from https://github.com/iptv-org/iptv.
For an example for a custom channels list and how to make one yourself, visit this gist.
For windows support, consider using termv-rs, a rewrite of termv in rust.
