Had thetvsub for a while: android box, m3u, VOD library + daily updates, live tv epg (with sports), and either tivimate or televizo as players, etc. This was my first iptv experience. It was pretty great…new episodes of shows would be available sometimes literally 2 or 3 hours after airing.
As of very recently, VOD not working (cloudfare policy violation message). Live TV was still working last I checked. The discord channel is gone.
Apparently, there was some sort of crackdown somewhere. Idk.
Anyway…now idk if I should just hang on, or get a new provider. Before, if the m3u changed, then an announcement would be on Discord, but that’s gone now.
Does anyone know anything? And what services are suggested? I am willing to pay up for another premium experience.
I mean to be frank like. It’s hard to say. I don’t know much about your previous provider. It sounded like cloudflare nuked the VOD server plenty of other fishes in the sea though.
Yea, but I was hoping they’d find another VOD library to plug in. The fact live TV kept going gave me hope. It was always my assumption they paid for access to that VOD library, but maybe I am wrong. The part that makes me worried is the Discord is gone. They’ve switched m3u before, but this is different.
wow…so i just got home from work and checked and VOD is back up and running. thank god i didn’t clear the m3u info bc the website and discord are still gone. thanks though
From what it sounds like. If I had to guess? Cloudflare hit the name server. Services will pivot though. 
Sounds like you provider is working to provide service rather than fleece the masses and disappear. So glad it worked out.
However, this is not an exact science. Providers will come and go. Services will die or pause and come back or not. Shows will not update. EPGs will not be correct. It is all part of the “experience.”
Patience and understanding these things happen will make life easier.
