Describe your issue

Apologizes if I opened the issue in the wrong place, there is nothing about such issues in the Contributing Guide. This issue is related to the scripts in this repository so I opened it here.

I believe API has some issues as well as scripts that generate playlists.

The issues:

https://iptv-org.github.io/?q=languages:pol Why are non Polish channels displayed here?

https://iptv-org.github.io/iptv/languages/pol.m3u Why are non Polish language channels here?

API does not even list them, so where did they came from? https://iptv-org.github.io/?q=country:pl

Poland is considered EUR region so have those channels slapped into Polish playlist as if they were broadcasted for you. You can find those channels even in Russian playlist

Not a bug per-se. Some channels that come from outside Poland can be streamed to you if they're aimed at an international/european audience. Those channels are, therefore, included in the Poland playlist.

What is the point of having a playlist that lists only channels in specific language when it also has foreign language ones?

Makes sense, though I think for this specific user case providing a diff playlist for filtering those out would be good.

I would say country lists should contain those extra channels but language ones should not.
