Show Exterity IPTV feed on Website

[Rockpile99]

Hello.

 

This isn't urgent (and probably not possible) but I'm curious if anyone has succeeded;

 

I'm trying to show the feed from our Exterity IPTV gateway via a Wordpress website (at the moment we display via OneLan digital signage system but that's on its last legs and will shortly be replaced by Raspberry Pi's running in Kiosk mode to show the Wordpress site).

 

I've searched all over the net, but other than uploading the feed to a third party service like YouTube and using the 'VideoWhisper' or similar plugin nobody seems to have an answer (the feed I want to show is BBC news so using third party isn't really a viable solution).

 

The output from Exterity is in UDP/RTP format, which apps like VLC will play but most Wordpress plugins I've found won't recognise, so I've used 'UDPXY' on a Linux server to rebroadcast as http.

 

Any help/hints gratefully received.

Why wouldn't you just use the raspberry pi to play the video stream directly? Seems like a lot of pointless hoop jumping just to play a video stream.

I don't just want the video feed... The website is a replacement for the current OneLan digital signage, so it shows date & time, image sliders, and announcements etc. The feed would be embedded into the page and form an additional (but not essential) component ....

Well, that wasn't in the first post was it

 

In that case, I believe the only option would be to use webrtc, websockets or similar, I don't think there's even an html option that would take the stream directly.
