Convert M3U Playlists to JSON Format

JSON is the standard format for web developers. Converting your M3U playlist to JSON allows you to easily parse stream metadata into web applications.

Bidirectional M3U and JSON Conversion

M3U Studio supports converting M3U to JSON, and also parsing a JSON array of channel objects back into a standard M3U format.

Metadata Preserved in JSON

The generated JSON includes: name, url, duration, and an attributes object mapping tvg-id, group-title, and tvg-logo properties, providing a structured object tree.

Why JSON is Useful for Custom Players

With JSON, you can quickly build search indexes, group channels dynamically using JavaScript filters, or plug the stream list into custom HTML5 players like Hls.js.

JSON Formatting Standards

The converter outputs standard array schemas where each channel is represented as an object with sanitized keys, ensuring compatibility with general JSON parsers.
