Basically you need 2 programs, a media aggregator like plex, jellyfin, or emby. Then the dizquetv software. The media aggregator hosts the files on either something on your network like a server/nas or your own local pc harddrives into video on demand categories you want(for example ive got reg tv, anime, kids, then the same for movies, and also music libraries, old commercials, etc.). You can also set commercial filler options including down to literally what commercials can play on what channel. Also if you didnt want to watch "cable" you can also access all the content youve added just via your categories in your apps at any time(barring technical issues) at or away from the house netflix style.

From there you feed the content into playlists on dizquetv and start the server app, add the server as a "tuner" in plex and then enjoy. This is obviously really basic level but its mostly time consuming then technically hard. But just to be 100% clear you have to provide all the content, even down to the bumps/commercials(which ive been slowly ripping over time off youtube and other video hosting sites).

My personal 2 cents closing thoughts, i much prefer this way as i dont need to worry about rights expiring or any stupid show jumping crap like that, lets me mess around with some technical stuff, and cool apps like dizquetv elevate my viewing experience perfectly into exactly what i want, hate a specific commercial? Just dont add it to your commercial pile. The freedom is insane, but like all good things it didnt appear overnight, it did take some work tracking down my fav shows and bumps/commercials. Plus you are usually slightly behind current releases unless you do....things.
