If you want to add a new stream link to playlists, please do the following:
- Make sure that the link you want to add works stably. To do this, open it in one of the players (for example, [VLC player](https://www.videolan.org/vlc/index.html)) and watch the broadcast for at least a minute (some test streams are interrupted after 15-30 seconds).

- Find in our [database](https://iptv-org.github.io/) the ID of the channel you want to add. If this particular channel is not in the database, then first leave a request to add it [here](https://github.com/iptv-org/database/issues/new/choose) and once the request is approved, you can proceed further.
- Then open the [/streams](/streams) folder and select the file corresponding to the country of this channel (for example, for `TF1.fr` it will be `fr.m3u`) and then insert the description of the stream and a link to it at the very end of the file. For more info, see [Stream Description Scheme](#stream-description-scheme).
- If you know that the broadcast only works in certain countries, do not forget to add the `[Geo-blocked]` label to the stream description.
