M3U Playlist Health Checker
Measure playlist health before loading it on a TV: find malformed entries, duplicates, missing metadata and, with Pro, unreachable channel URLs.
The structural health report is free and local. Pro is required for server-side URL checks, with a protected quota of 2,000 channels per day.
Run an M3U health check
Import a playlist to see a health score, issue counts and exact remediation paths without exposing URLs to analytics.
This box is empty and editable. Gray text is only a hint—you can type, paste (⌘V), or use Upload file. Then click Import playlist.
Health
Structure diagnosis is local and free. URL reachability checks are Pro only (HTTP reachability, not guaranteed playback).

How playlist validation separates structural and network failures
Inspect M3U structure locally
Count empty names, missing groups, duplicate names or URLs, absent logos and TVG identifiers immediately.
Check channel reachability with Pro
Save the playlist, then run bounded server checks that classify HTTP, timeout and URL failures.
Turn findings into corrections
Open affected channels or preview cleaner rules instead of receiving a report with no repair path.
M3U checker questions
Does a healthy M3U guarantee every stream plays?
No. Structure and reachability are different. The free report validates playlist data; Pro URL checks test remote responses at that moment.
Why are URL checks limited to Pro?
Remote checks consume server resources and require SSRF protection, queueing and quotas; Free analysis therefore stays entirely local.
What happens after the checker finds duplicates?
You can review them in the report, edit individual channels or open the Cleaner to preview a deterministic deduplication rule.
Know which playlist problems are structural and which are remote
Run the free local report, then use Pro when you need repeatable URL evidence and automated cleanup. Measure playlist health before loading it on a TV: find malformed entries, duplicates, missing metadata and, with Pro, unreachable channel URLs.
