So, here is a neat way to run pi-hole on android ( or a linux distro )
found on Xda :

https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/dev-root-pi-hole-for-android-deploy-pi-hole-dns-server-to-any-android-4-x-device.4332889/

Requirements :
root / 2gb of free-space / atleast a device with 2gb of ram / static ip
( note : if you don't have root.. try Androlinux )

So, my android devices/clients are running Netguard*
*To manage what apps can be allowed to access internet
Under settings/advanced/enable Filter data/under VPN-Dns (use pi-hole Ipadress)
This forces all apps to use pi-hole

I installed pi-hole on my rk3566, and its working quite well..
while watching iptv it's using about 1.4 gb of ram ( total ram usage..used by device )
with 6 client connected to pi-hole server

just sharing some knowledge..

A small update..
If you use the "smart TV" block list...it might block the loading of the EPG ( it happens with my IPTV provider )

I also noticed a lot of 401 errors this month... With tivimate..I solved it by using User-agent : alphaplayer
