This player is based on Android media3 ExoPlayer and FFmpeg library, to provide a simple player for IPTV user.
- HTTP streaming server, such as udpxy that provides a HTTP support for IPTV.
- (Optional) EPG provider
Since there are IPTV source support MP2/MP3 audio only, and which is not supported by Android platform, FFmpeg extensions is required to be complied, and the compiled AAR files can be put to app/libs/ folder. There is nothing need to be noted for compiling, as it's a very simple Android application.
Suppose you have a typical Android TV remote controller, you can use OK button to get the playlist, Left/Right button to switch group, and Up/Down to select channel. To configure this application, use MENU button to open settings page.
A M3U URL is used to tell player where is the streaming source, it needs to be a M3U file with following syntax:
#EXTM3U
#EXTM3U x-tvg-url="http://192.168.1.1/epg.xml"
#EXTINF:-1 tvg-id="1" group-title="Group",Channel Name
http://192.168.1.1:4022/udp/239.9.9.9:9999
Use x-tvg-url to specify EPG URL to get EPG (in XMLTV format).
Use tvg-id to match channel in EPG, there is no name match (yet).
This player will try to open http://openwrt.lan/iptv.m3u by default.
An optional EPG URL is used to tell player where is the EPG, it needs to point to a XMLTV file.
- No channel selection by number
- No support for SMIL playlist (by ExoPlayer)
