How to stream my own videos on iptv channel using tvheadend
Added by Samer Physics about 2 years ago
Hi all
I'm new to tvheadend
I want to stream my own videos on my own channel, is that possible? what I need to do?
I'm running tvheadend on ubuntu and I can access the main settings page of tvheadend
Do I need to buy a device in order to stream my own videos?
Any help will be appreciated
Thanks in advance

use vlc in a terminal window from a linux desktop
here is the script I run that makes a list in VLC of all the Mp4's in that directory and runs them one after another round and round
----
#!/bin/bash
vlc -vvv /disk10/"The Big Bang Theory Web"/ --loop --sout-keep --sout '#standard{access=http,mux=ts,dst=192.168.1.201:32002}'
-----
run the script
now connect to that computer (192.168.1.201:32002)
first use vlc on another computer to make sure it works
then tvheadend mux
http://192.168.1.201:32002 put your address in the mux url field
works good
make sure port 32002 is open or use a port of your choice if exposing to the internet choose one that the Russians and Chinese wont scan to death
