Does anybody know of a way to use their IPTV service to watch together with friends besides screen sharing? I wanted to watch some sports with friends and I hate that when I use discord, there’s lots of frame drops and quality issues. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

One thing I found that helps for sharing an IPTV stream on Discord is to use OBS as an intermediary.

Instead of sharing the IPTV window directly into Discord, I capture the IPTV window in OBS to send the output of that as a virtual webcam stream, which I then share to Discord.

That seems to help with the framerate.

Extra points if you pay for Nitro to bump up the stream quality.
