You can add your own streams in Live TV that are specified in an M3U file. This M3U file consists of a list of "m3u8" streams. You create this M3U file according to your wishes and then place it on your own web server. In the home network, a local web server is sufficient, as is often supplied with NAS drives. Then you add the M3U URL in Live TV. Done!
The m3u file must use exactly the names for the stream names that Live TV uses. You can find the exact names of the channels in Live TV under "Settings" > "Channel Selection".
You can only specify names in the M3U file that also exist in Live TV. All other names are currently ignored by the app and not displayed. In addition, you must ensure that your streams are in the "m3u8" format. Other formats are not supported (rtmp, etc.)
Own streams are assigned to the existing channel names. Switch to the "Stream" tab, where the channel names will appear if you have assigned a stream.
For all those who are a little more familiar with the stream subject and for whom terms like M3U are not Chinese. For all those who use a TV receiver or television in the home network that can stream the TV program further in the local network (e.g. in higher resolution) and who want to receive this program with Live TV. We therefore do not provide technical support for this feature. We explicitly point out that this feature is intended for this personal use case.
The WireGuard protocol itself does not support 2-Factor Authentication (2FA) for VPN connections. However, when using WireGuard connections with VPN Tracker, you can enhance your overall security by enabling 2FA for your VPN Tracker account.
This means your VPN configuration and access are protected with an additional layer of security, while your WireGuard connections remain end-to-end encrypted for maximum protection.
Using VPN Tracker is the best way to benefit from the performance and security of WireGuard, along with modern account-level protections like 2FA.

IKEv1 is still a widely used VPN protocol and remains a solid option in many network environments. While it has some technical limitations compared to newer protocols, it continues to be supported in many systems and VPN solutions. VPN Tracker offers full support for both IKEv1 and IKEv2, so you can choose the protocol that best fits your setup. Want to learn more about the newer IKEv2 protocol? Our blog post on IKEv2 VPN covers its key features.
IKEv2 typically uses UDP port 500 for the initial connection and UDP port 4500 when NAT Traversal (NAT-T) is required — for example, behind firewalls or routers using NAT. If you're configuring an IKEv2 connection on your Mac, iPhone, or iPad, VPN Tracker makes setup easy. Learn how to connect to IKEv2 VPN with step-by-step guidance.
