Looking into building a multi-service IPTV Web App

by ishtumba

Hey guys,

I've been a web app dev for most of my life and after being inspired by Vader's web portal for viewing their content, I was wanting to create a universal player for any provider.

Inspecting a m3u file, I see most of them reference a .ts stream for each of the channels, although, I haven't had much luck with some of the various html5 ts streamers on github.

Anybody want to join me in this endeavor?

Some (most, actually) IPTV providers allow you to change the format to m3u8 or HLS within the url, which should be playable using an HTML5 player.

Perhaps you could open source the code on Github so anyone can contribute.

Same. If the service is based on Xtream-Codes it should have the format: ip:port/live/username/password/id.ts . In such case, you may change the .ts for .m3u8 and it should work with any web player.

Hello! I'm building an Android App for IPTV at the moment and have had a lot of experience in the troubles you're likely to run into whilst building such a service. Fancy DMing me so we can chat about it more? Would love to help.

Hey i am also building a IPTV app, i am a web developer.

My idea is too include the EPG data, the app is on early stage.

For now i manage to get xml from scheduledirect service and send it to a sql database .

I have a lot of ideas but the principal objective is that the user can customize is own channels and epg, like xtream editor but better, that includes a ionic app

Maybe we can shared ideas

Regards
