What the title says. In the past there was a Kodi addon but not sure it is still online and maintained. I prefer a solution like an app or addon to install it on an Android tv box. Thanks!

I'd also be very interested. There's an m3u playlist you can find very easily on GitHub but that one barely works, stuttering or endlessly buffering most of the time

Do you need to watch them live?

[-] WeAreAllOne@lemm.ee 7 points 1 year ago

Yup, that is correct. In the past NHK World had an Android app, but no more.

Are you sure? Because this still shows up for me https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jp.or.nhk.nhkworld.tv

Sorry meant to say an addon for Kodi. The app is still there.

Hmm. If it needs to be live, something like red pill media may have japanese content.

I have a similar problem wanting to watch Dutch and German TV. I just gave in and found a couple of good Usenet indexers for each Language, and just host a plex media library for both. With a radarr container for each language.

Probably something !anime@lemmy.ml can help you with

Thanks but not looking for anime rather than regular tv stations streaming online. Worth the shot though.

Oh sorry, read that too fast. Then probably !piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com

[-] WeAreAllOne@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago

Will cross post there too, thanks!

[-] Blaze@sopuli.xyz 2 points 1 year ago

You are welcome, enjoy!

I saw your question in anime but given the total lack of replies, I'm guessing nearly all of them are really only into anime.

Yup it seems so ! 😅 😅
