YouTube Playlist as Virtual Channel

Playground Virtual Channels
#21

@Joseph_Lee OK so create a custom channel as shown here in my screenshot. You can test with this example if you want. Its a 24/7 feed of CBN that I have on my server. You would just replace the url with the one of your feed. You also need to replace the IP address of the docker server with your own, since it is on the same box you can use 127.0.0.1. I am not sure of the port that you used though. You will have to look at your docker container setup to see what you have configured. I have this as channel 500 but you can change that or just tell Channels to not prefer the channel # from the m3u. Also change the channel id, name, and title accordingly.
