VLC STREAMER ON QNAP WINDOWS
If you want to use Windows, you can find Windows binaries for nginx with the RTMP module already included here: Note to Windows users: This guide focuses on using Linux. As long as you get the dependencies for nginx somewhere besides apt, you can follow this guide just fine.
VLC STREAMER ON QNAP SOFTWARE
I recommend using Ubuntu for the server software for the sake of ease, but you can obviously use whatever you want.
VLC STREAMER ON QNAP DOWNLOAD
So when I have 2 streamers stream to my server, and I download both of them, I can chew up 10GB of bandwidth in 2 hours. Just make sure you have enough bandwidth.remember that bandwidth usage will be (the size of a stream) * (the number of people uploading + the number of people downloading). I recommend Linode or Digital Ocean as providers. If you don't have your own box, a VPS can also work. So I assure you, even a cheap old box would suffice. Don't believe me? My RTMP server for a long time was a Raspberry Pi, a $35 mini-computer, sitting under my desk, and it was capable of hosting at least 3 simultaneous streams, and I never even stressed it to see how many more it could handle. Essentially it just grabs data from the input and forwards it on to the output, simple data transfer. Import other people's streams to incorporate for your own purposes (I use it in my casts for multiple camera angles, like in this video I did of a Tribes Ascend broadcast with multiple camera angles)Īlright, so how do you do these kinds of things?īelieve it or not, RTMP is actually extremely light on system resources.Don't worry, it's not too complicated, but having familiarity with Linux will certainly help.Ī couple things you can do with your own RTMP server that you might be interested in: This guide will cover the very basics of setting up a simple RTMP server on a Linux computer. But sometimes you want some more control over your stream, or you want other people to be able to stream to you, or you want to stream to multiple places, or any number of things that requires you to have access to an actual RTMP stream from an RTMP server. What am I doing wrong? There has to be some fundamental configuration, or something, that I'm missing, but I can't find it.īig thanks in advance for direction anyone can provide.Most people who stream enjoy using services such as or Ustream to deliver video to viewers, and that works well enough.
VLC STREAMER ON QNAP TV
So far, I'm only getting the OTA channels provide by the HDHomerun tuner in the TV channel section of Kodi. I have the HTSP TVHeadend add-on installed, and configured with the NAS TVH IP information. Ultimately, I'm wanting to use a Raspberry Pi running LibreElec and Kodi on the front-end. I've only used the GUI environment on both my NAS, and the TVH Server to do all my setups and configurations I've not done anything from the command line on any platform to create directory structures, add packages, etc. Interestingly, I'm getting "NONE" in the Muxes Scan Results column for all of the IPTV entries, even after forcing a scan for that network. I can take the URL ( ) from one of the individual Mux channels and manually enter it into VLC, and it plays fine, so I'm not sure why these working URLs are getting passed to VLC the way they are, with the stream/service path. All show as being Enabled, but any attempt at playing them results in a VLC error: These also showed up in the Systems tab, where I was able to Map All services. Over 1000 channel entries were automatically and immediately created in the Muxes tab, alongside my OTA HDHomerun channels. I created a IPTV Automatic network entry for it, using the MPEGTS URL as given by my subscription provider. The issue I'm having is with my IPTV subscription. I can even play them from the Services mapped entries, via VLC, so TVH seems to be working.

I installed TVHeadend Server to my QNAP NAS, and it picked up my HDHomerun tuner without a hitch, so I've been able to create a HDHR Network config, and muxes for all my local OTA channels are there and scanned, and all mapped in Services. Seems like what I do find is either out of date, or applies to a different platform. Have been looking everywhere, trying to find snippets that might apply to my situation, but I'm still largely in the dark.
