    Jellyfin? What is that, some computer based television network you populate and schedule yourself? Because I totally would want that. That would rule.

      It’s a FOSS alternative to Plex, if you’re familiar with that. Less like a tv channel, more like a streaming service you populate yourself.

      What you’re describing is something I’ve been on the lookout for, still looking!

        It was mentioned elsewhere, but ErsatzTV does exactly that. You can set up channels, build playouts, set schedules, and even do things like adding pre-rolls, fillers, commercials, and watermarks. Really neat project.

      Unsure if your asking seriously (if not, whooosh to me), but it’s an open source alternative to Plex.

      Plex is a media server that you run to host your TV shows and movies. Think of a self-hosted Netflix.
