A new version of IP_TV-Neon has been released, a lightweight tool for managing and searching IPTV content. The project is notable for its use of large language models to navigate through the channel lists. IP_TV-Neon provides a minimalist and fast console interface, free from the excessive functionality of standard media centers and optimized for systems with slow disks and older processors (development was conducted on a 2014 iMac running CachyOS). Playback is handled by the external player mpv. The code is written in Rust and is distributed under the MIT license.
Key changes:
- Support for Google Gemini has been added to the existing integration with DeepSeek, allowing users to choose their preferred engine for semantic search and dynamic playlist creation based on natural language.
- An intelligent filtering mechanism has been implemented. The system can process queries such as 'find popular science channels with English audio track' or 'create a list of TV channels by rating', analyzing metadata from local or remote M3U playlists.
