Ubuntu users can benefit from a PPA supporting Ubuntu versions, from 18.04 to 22.10 (!). Add ppa:tv-lite/ppa-git to your system's Software Sources by typing the following commands in the terminal:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:tv-lite/ppa-gitsudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install tv-lite
Installing Acestream is recommended
sudo snap install acestreamplayer
A package for Arch, Manjaro and other Arch-derived distros is available now in AUR
Installing Acestream is recommended
sudo snap install acestreamplayer Also take care to install (actually downgrade) to the following custom built VLC package. Run these commands. After that you can update VLC again, from the repos.
The official VLC package is useless. It has two dependencies missing (aribb) and a missing plugin. It can't open most of the MP4 and HLS streams.
curl -L -o vlc-3.0.12-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst https://www.tv-lite.com/uploads/tv-lite/arch/vlc-3.0.12-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst
sudo pacman -U vlc-3.0.12-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst
Then you may upgrade VLC with the one from the repositories, since the dependencies and the plugin will stay installed.

The windows version has a lot of needed software packed inside, which is needed to run TV-Lite. Linux has this software, either installed out of the box, either installable from repositories. Windows users are left out, in the cold, so we have to provide them for these users.
