IPv6 support isn't related to the container but rather to the setup of your docker install. Nothing should need to be added to the container for it to work (unless tvheadend doesn't support it).

The container (as I said) has an IPv6 address my setup is correct as I can ping it's IPv6 address from another container.

Inside the container the tvheadend application is only listening on IPv4. I can run "nc -l6 -p 9123" inside the container and connect via IPv6 and see it's listening on IPv6. See below

Actually I've managed to make this work. I just had to pass a command line arg to the docker run to force tvheadend to listen on IPv6 in the container.
-e RUN_OPTS='--ipv6'

Will close and leave here in the hope this is useful to someone else.

Thanks for the attention.
