A lightweight IPTV streaming relay server written in C that converts multicast RTP/UDP, RTSP, and HLS sources into unicast HTTP streams. It includes a built-in web player, status dashboard, M3U playlist conversion, and carrier-grade FCC fast channel change support as a drop-in replacement for udpxy and msd_lite.
Use cases
- convert multicast RTP IPTV streams to HTTP unicast
- replace udpxy or msd_lite with a faster IPTV proxy
- proxy internal IPTV HLS streams to LAN or WAN
- watch IPTV in the browser with a built-in web player
- enable millisecond-fast channel changes with carrier FCC servers
- rewind and timeshift IPTV channels via RTSP catchup sources
- monitor IPTV proxy clients and bandwidth from a web dashboard
- run an IPTV stream forwarder on a router or NAS
When to choose
- you receive IPTV via multicast RTP/RTSP and need HTTP unicast for players
- you want udpxy-compatible URL semantics with better performance and FEC error correction
- you need fast channel change (FCC) support comparable to a native set-top box
- you want a zero-dependency, tiny binary for embedded devices like routers and NAS
- you want a built-in web player, EPG, timeshift, and status dashboard in one server
When to avoid
- your IPTV source is already unicast HTTP/HLS and needs no proxying
- you need transcoding or codec conversion rather than stream forwarding
- you are not on a network with access to the IPTV multicast/RTSP sources
- you need a GUI-managed media server rather than a lightweight proxy
