Great thanks for thinking about this.
My TV is a UK spec KD-65XE8596 2017 model. IPTV generally does work ok with no buffering in spmc on this device with an epg pulled directly from my IPTV service provider and their m3u trimmed as much as it can be via url query string params. That said, this still results in 1286 channels being loaded and I'm sure you can imagine this takes some time to load on spmc initial launch. Once loaded spmc is a bit sluggish but live streams do work ok.
Early testing today with iptv-epg has shown that it's going to be much more spritely using an optimized m3u / epg. It's going to be much better even without the new epg range adjust feature that we're discussing here.
My nvidia shield can cope fine, it's just the poor Sony Bravia that I spent a fortune on that crawls along. I'd say: very nice screen, shame about the Android TV user experience.
