    I thought this would work - and it does! Here’s how to add radio channels as Live TV:

    • From the Jellyfin homescreen menu, navigate to the Dashboard
    • Click the Dashboard menu button (three stripes at the top)
    • Go to Live TV
    • Click the first (+) button to add a new tuner device
    • Choose “M3U Tuner”
    • Select your local .m3u file or paste a URL
    • Click Save
    • Go back to the homescreen of Jellyfin
    • In the menu, click Live TV
    • Switch to the tab called Channels
    • If your .m3u file works, you can select any channel it contains from here.

    You can even add a custom logo for each channel:

    #EXTM3U
    #EXTINF:-1,Channel 1 tvg-logo="https://link.to/logo-ch1.png"
    http://liveradio.url.channel1.fake:8000/channel1-is-fake.mp3
    
    #EXTINF:-1,RadiOmega tvg-logo="https://linking.park/logo-radiomega.png"
    http://liveradio.nope.omegalive:8000/y/radiomega.mp3
    

    And rank them in the list by changing -1 to positive values IIRC.
