FieldScreen TV now opens IPTV on Your games, with automatic NFL matchup discovery across the connected channel lineup. Watch game selects a current guide listing that names both teams; uncertain team or scheduled-network matches remain labeled as possible coverage.

  • Search the entire channel lineup and guide with Ctrl+F. Up to 500 channels fit in one scrollable list, with no page hopping.
  • Load XMLTV through short provider URLs, raw gzip responses, or XML.gz files. Compression is detected from the response bytes.
  • Update just the guide link while keeping channels connected. Guide failures explain the problem and retain available listings; retries respect provider rate limits.

Validation: 27 automated tests, production build, Linux package checks, packaged renderer smoke test, and live M3U/XMLTV discovery and playback. Physical Steam Deck/controller validation remains pending.

Enter private provider links only in the installed app. Download the AppImage or portable archive below, or use the terminal installer on https://fieldscreentv.org.
