To add a expected improvement on the method proposed by Hakuna:
If you have a dedicated HTPC, you can also change his method in such way that when opening a rarfile anywhere (so also in eg. windows explorer) by tweaking the parameters in the standard "open with" settings for rar files.
Then you can add rar to your movie extensions and even use IMDB lookup based on the rar filename.
(this just slipped trough my mind, havent tested it in any way, but if someone is successful, please let us know.)

    it would be nice if MP looked for subtitles inside RAR, just like Zoomplayer, XBMC and many others do.
    subtitles are often 6-20MB , and highly compressible.

    This is for the tvserver, the iptv part. It used to only support m3u files containing all the channels, but now you can use a m3u8 too. Usually you get an m3u8 from your iptv provider, but there are also some that can be found on the internet
