This is broadcast similar to Smithsonian and maybe even better.
It is nowhere to be seen on PC like Smithsonian and it looks like we need an index.m3u8 like one from this post:

There are 2 main goals of this thread:

To watch PBS America on PC

and how to get m3u8 url for this type of broadcast that isn't seen publicly on PC.

I watch my media on PC only and don't have satellite or TV or other kinds of media boxes.

Need access.

You need TV set in the UK and that is your access. You can pay for TV licence if you want to, or not.
I haven't seen it broadcasted anywhere on the internet on PC like Smithsonian on myustv.com.
From all 5 options to subscribe only Amazon looks to me like the one for Pc and
that is not live broadcast like on other 4 but VODs.
You can search for VODs if you know which ones you want on youtube, share servers or torrents.
I would like to watch live broadcast on PC.

I would like to watch live broadcast on PC.

If you find any TV that has this channel included in their channel list please post it here and I will see if i can get you in ;)

I have done a little googling but had no luck except
"Welcome to PBS America, the British television channel from America's Public Broadcasting Service, available 24 hours a day on Freeview 91, Freesat 155, Virgin Media 273, Sky 174 and on-demand with our Amazon UK channel."

from the pbsamerica. co.uk/about section.

Unfortunately that got me nowhere :(

Here is some information that looks too good to be true. It is really good for the start.

If you search in yandex "pbsamerica live" there are a few links to click on.

Here is one:

You need Swiss VPN to access this site. UK and US IPs are not available for Zatoo.
Once you get Swiss VPN, there are options to register as unlimited time free user or premium.
I registered as free user and right now as of time of this writting I'm watching PBS America live,
pecisely what is on this schedule at this time:

https://www.pbsamerica.co.uk/schedule/


This is how it normally looks like, of no use to PC viewer.

https://www.freeview.co.uk/get-freeview-play/channels/pbs-america-1

To enjoy this channel you'll need a TV with Freeview HD built in or an HD-ready TV connected to a Freeview HD Recorder.



It is possible to talk to PBS directly in a few ways.
But, if they would be as useful as Smithsonian, it would be a waste of time and energy.
You'll find better help in Cabulo Smithsonian thread on this forum.

This IPTV link works with VLC player.
There are tons of PBS broadcasts in https://iptv-org.github.io/iptv/index.m3u and this link is not there.
Here is one good link from that list:


#EXTINF:-1 tvg-id="PBSAmerica.uk" tvg-logo="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/4/43/PBS_America_logo.png" group-title="General",PBS America (720p)
https://pbs-samsunguk.amagi.tv/playlist.m3u8
That playlist is from https://github.com/iptv-org/iptv

Search for PBS on https://www.thirteen.org/ returns 62,000 results.
It would be great to find program schedules for PBS broadcasts somehow.
