About Hypnotix
Hypnotix is an IPTV player from the Linux Mint project. It plays live TV channels, movies and series from IPTV providers, and it can hold several providers at once. A provider can be an M3U URL, an Xtream API account or a local M3U playlist file.
Playback uses libmpv, and the interface is built on Mint's libxapp library. The code is published under the GPLv3.
