tvheadendWebplayer

Disclaimer: Abadoned project. Not maintained. Not used. At least not by me.

A webplayer app for tvheadend.

A little fun project to learn new technologies like node.js.

What it does:

It offers a nicer tvheadend webinterface, for just watching TV.

The Webinterface tvheadend offers just has support for VLC plugin and "zapping" is a pain with it. It was made to admin tvheadend. This is made, to use tvheadend.

Meh Screenshot

What external libraries/tools are needed?

  • crtmpserver
  • avconv
  • node.js / npm
  • bower
  • flash plugin (maybe I'll switch to real Apple HLS)

The webapp is served by node.js server. Also the avconv process is controlled by this instance.

I use bower for managing client-side libs like jquery, nanoscroller etc Just type bower install in project root.

How to start this thing?

  • git clone [email protected]:mablae/tvheadendWebplayer.git
  • cd tvheadendWebplayer
  • npm install
  • bower install
  • node app.js

Open http://127.0.0.1:4000/ in webbrowser.

TODO:

  • Make a config file or config in webinterface or both
    • IP-Adress of tvheadend
    • Port of tvheadend
    • Port to run this on
    • Make the streaming settings configurable
  • EPG (what is running on channel)
  • Highlight current tuned channel
  • Shutdown the stream (maybe on window.close() event ?)
