Format Details
M3U8
M3U8 is the UTF-8 variant of M3U commonly used for HLS streaming playlists. Like M3U, it is a lightweight text list of media entries and metadata tags. It converts cleanly to M3U, JSON, CSV, or plain text.
JSON
JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a lightweight, human-readable data interchange format derived from JavaScript object literal syntax. It natively supports objects, arrays, strings, numbers, booleans, and null, allowing it to represent arbitrarily nested data structures. JSON has become the universal standard for REST API responses, configuration files, and data interchange on the web, with native parsing support in virtually every programming language.
