Automatically identify duplicate channels across regions and groups, compare quality and reliability, then upgrade to the best available source.
Playlists are messy. The same channel appears dozens of times across different regions and groups - but with different names and EPG IDs, you'd never know they're duplicates. Some streams work reliably, others fail constantly. Manual testing across thousands of feeds to find the best sources is impossible.

Everything you need to maintain high-quality streams
Smart scheduling checks healthy feeds every 72 hours and retries failed feeds with exponential backoff. Track uptime, resolution, FPS, and codec quality across your entire playlist—no manual testing required.
Define regional groups that share content (US|, UK|, CA| for English; US-ES|, MX| for Spanish). Automatically discover when associated regions have better quality versions of the same channels.
Composite scoring weighs reliability (60%), resolution (25%), and FPS (15%) to rank all duplicates. See at a glance which sources are worth keeping—green scores mean reliable, red means replace.
Verify channels are showing the same content. Compare programming schedules side-by-side before swapping feeds to avoid mismatches.
Organize your workflow efficiently. Create replacement tasks while analyzing feeds, assign alternatives, and process them when ready to edit.
Test feeds without leaving your browser. Play any MPEG-TS or HLS feed with real-time quality metrics and instant status feedback.
A complete solution for OTT stream management
Clean card-based interface with sidebar filtering. Compare all feed sources with quality scores and EPG data.
Analyze entire categories for better alternatives. Date range filtering and ignore system for systematic improvement.
Track feed replacements and reviews without context-switching. Filter by type, group, or creator with full audit trail.

OTT Stream Score uses tvg-id to identify duplicate channels. Poor or missing tvg-id values mean duplicates won't be grouped correctly and ranking becomes less effective. Target >80% EPG coverage for your regions. Reference implementations achieve ~94% coverage.
How to optimize your "US| Entertainment" group
Go to Reports → Select "US| Entertainment" → Choose date range (30 days). System shows 15 channels with better alternatives available.
Click on channel to see current feed (SD, 75% reliable) vs. suggested feed (FHD, 100% reliable from "US| Other Group").
Check EPG schedules match to confirm it's the same channel. Preview both feeds using the built-in player to verify quality.
Assign the replacement feed with note: "Upgrading to FHD source with better reliability". Team reviews, approves, and implements changes.
Result: Higher quality playlist backed by performance data, not guesswork.
