TVheadend, Nginx & Cloudflare

Added by Chris Nicholaidis almost 8 years ago

Wondering if anyone has had any luck getting TVH running through cloudflare?

We have things through Nginx reverse proxy on the server with no issues but I also want it via Cloudflare to overcome some routing issues (one route from the server to us appears to be throttled, overcome using VPN).

Nothing appears to work through cloudflare though- I have an additional HTSP port running of 2095 (a port that works with cloudflare), all works fine using this port when only via NGinx but as soon as I enable cloudflare nothing will login to the server via the Kodi client.

Am I missing something very, very obvious here or are things just not compatible?

Hello Chris! Can you please post the nginx configuration you use as I'm trying to create a reverse proxy cache with nginx? The problem with the load balancing (as I suppose you are trying to solve with cloudflare - among ddos-) is that the http stream that tvh outputs is just an m3u playlist with a single .ts file inside that is not segmented as with hls!

I'm trying to pass a stream from home to multiple internet clients by first caching it in a remote server I have for distribution of the channel so that it streams the channel only once.
