MyIPTV is a utility program that converts IPTV program streams from UDP multicast to HTTP, and you can regard it as an enhanced (with admin UI) udpxy.
To use MyIPTV, the TV needs to support third-party apps.
A soft routing device is required, a 30$ - 40$ one such as R2S or H28K
is enough (I myself is using a R2S Plus, but seems H28K is a little cooler),
it's also okay to use a computer. The device should have at least two
network interfaces, and one of them must be a cable interface.
My network structure is as below. The soft router device and the iTV port of
the ONT must be connected with a cable. For other connections, both cable and
WIFI are fine, but cable is recommended.
A static IP address should be bind to the LAN port of the soft routing device,
As an example, the static IP address which I am using is 192.168.1.2.
It is recommended to install a general operating system such as Ubuntu on the soft router, not a dedicated soft routing system such as openwrt, I tried FriendlyWrt at the beginning and failed.
Download a MyIPTV binary corresponding to the CPU architecture of the soft
router device from here, and
then start MyIPTV by executing the commands like below:
$ mv myiptv-v0.1.0-linux.arm64 myiptv
$ chmod +x myiptv
$ ./myiptvIf your LAN IP address starts with 192.168., MyIPTV generally can correctly
detect the network-related configurations; If not, you need to manually prepare
a myiptv.json configuration file and restart MyIPTV. The configuration file
needs to contain at least the following settings:
{
"config": {
"serverAddr": "192.168.1.2:7709",
"mastIface": "eth0"
}
}Where serverAddr is the service address of MyIPTV, mcastIface is the name
of the network interface connected to the iTV port of the ONT.
After MyIPTV starts successfully, we can access its service via a browser.
Navigate to "http://{serverAddr}" (e.g. http://192.168.1.2:7709) then we can
see the admin UI. If you haven't configure serverAddr manually, its default
value is "{LAN IP of the soft router}:7709", e.g. 192.168.1.2:7709.
Note: The
MyIPTVprocess will be killed at the close of the SSH session close, to keep it running, you may neednohupor makeMyIPTVa daemon.
We can import/export the channel list from the "Channel Management" page of the
admin UI. The imported/exported file is in CSV format, lines start with # are
comments, below is an example file:
#Group,Name,DisplayName,Hide,Logo,Source

MyIPTV can provide channel list in two format, TEXT and M3U8.
If the IPTV app on the TV side requires TEXT format (such as DIYP), the URL of the channel
list is http://{serverAddr}/iptv/channels, e.g. http://192.168.1.2:7709/iptv/channels.
If the IPTV app on the TV side requires M3U8 format (such as Kodi), the URL of the channel
list is http://{serverAddr}/iptv/channels?fmt=m3u8, e.g. http://192.168.1.2:7709/iptv/channels?fmt=m3u8.
Currently, the EPG is provide only in JSON format of DIYP, its URL is
http://{serverAddr}/iptv/epg, e.g. http://192.168.1.2:7709/iptv/epg.
If you have a public IP, a domain name resolved by Cloudflare, then you can
publish your MyIPTV service to the Internet. Please take below configuration
as a reference on how to do this:
{
"ddns": {
// The target domain record.
"recordName": "myiptv.example.com",
// Cloudflare zone ID
"zoneID": "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx",
// Cloudflare API key
"apiKey": "yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy",
// URLs to fetch the public IP, if they return an IPv4 address, the A
// record is updated, and AAAA record is updated if they return an IPv6
// address.
"wanIPProviders": ["http://ipv4.icanhazip.com", "https://whatismyip.akamai.com"],
// DNS server addresses to speed up the DNS resolve process, this
// configuration is optional, if provided, the address must include the
// port number (typically 53). At most of the time, these should point
// to the Cloudflare DNS servers of your domain.
"dnsServers": ["beth.ns.cloudflare.com:53", "rudy.ns.cloudflare.com:53"]
}
}The frontend of MyIPTV is developed with Vue and Ant Design Vue, I'm not
good at frontend, that's only basic features have been implemented.
The backend is developed with Go, without any third party dependencies, and
will not add one in the future.
The UDP packet parsing feature is copied from udpxy, thanks Pavel Cherenkov,
the author of udpxy.
Maybe I will implement the following features later, but there's not any guarantee.
- Channel list support more formats.
- EPG support more formats.
- Install MyIPTV as a daemon.
- Scan for IPTV sources.
- Admin UI support other languages.
And, welcome PRs.
