CLUSTER DESKTOP-PLAYER-PLAYLISTS · 13 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2021-05-14

IPTV desktop streaming players

This cluster consists of desktop media players and clients focused on streaming IPTV channels, playlists, and live television with features like program guides, favorites, recording, and catch-up. The dated history before the index start includes only 3 entries, too thin to discern a shape, so the cluster's early trajectory is unclear and may predate the index or be largely undated. Traction is led by iptv-genius with 1 star, followed by zeltatv and iptvnator-bin with 0 stars each.

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.

Two labels per entry, never collapsed into one: how it was built, and who stands behind it. Counted over the 13 listed below. Unlabelled means nothing has decided yet — not that the answer is small.

Ranked by traction, highest first, and paged 20 at a time — this is a window on the cluster, never the whole of it. Ties are broken by a stable id so a product cannot appear on two pages or fall between them. Browse every cluster.
