## 📡 Multiple EPG Sources
Configure as many EPG/M3U sources as you want in `config.json`. A dropdown appears in the topbar when more than one source is defined.
If `allow_personal_epg` is `true`, a **"✏ Personal EPG"** option appears in the dropdown, letting any visitor enter their own XMLTV/M3U URLs. Their choice is saved in `localStorage` — zero server impact.

## ▶️ Built-in Player
Click on any **channel name** or **currently airing program** to open a PiP (picture-in-picture) player in the bottom-right corner.
The player requires:
- An **M3U URL** configured in setup (used to match channel names to stream URLs)
- An **M3U URL** configured in the active source (used to match channel names to stream URLs)
- The **php-curl** extension installed on the server
If your stream source (e.g. Tunarr) serves streams over HTTP while GridTV runs on HTTPS, `proxy.php` handles the relay transparently — no browser mixed-content errors.
