Perhaps ffmpeg could be run on the appletv instead of the web backend: https://github.com/kewlbear/FFmpeg-iOS-build-script
@falk yes, that's exactly what I am looking at. it will be cool if someone can get it up and running on the AppleTV.
There is also https://gist.github.com/wtsnz/ade50e67ae6b006c1db3
@falk i tried the above script too. the TVVLCKit didn't work as expected.
I think you can use buildMobileVLCKit.sh from the official repo now: https://code.videolan.org/videolan/VLCKit/tree/iOS-2.7
There is also the precompiled lib from this post: https://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?f=36&t=128638&start=40#p433969
@falk awesome. you should try it out this weekend and see whether it works :)
@falk if you successfully build it, let me know. i can figure it out from there.
I will try to get it up and running in between work and my thesis.
Also found https://github.com/sylverb/NAStify which seems to have a working tvos app using tvvlckit
@falk awesome thanks! let me know once you have it up and running.
I have not had the time to look at it, but have another idea: Present the streams from a dlna server like https://github.com/Janhouse/torrent-stream-dlna and let localcast/infuse/some other dlna player browse the folders and play the stream.
@falk the goal is to get rid of server dependency. i don't think that it will be ideal.
Here is as vlc example project: https://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?f=36&t=129799
@falk have you tried to get it work?
Have not had the time. But just found https://github.com/pepibumur/PopcornTimeTV
@falk that is cool. does it work?
Yes, atm it is hard coded to play a torrent, but I think it can be combined with the interface you have already made.
@falk also, it is using the default AVPlayerViewController
. it won't work with most video formats for BT tho.
It seems they are going to use vlckit.
If we can get TVVLCKit on Apple TV, it will help a lot on playing the video/audio stream that we want without worrying about the file format.
