Playing MJPEG streams on SS-IPTV

Post by RaduB »

I have A Samsung Smart TV (M series) and I tried to play an .mjpeg stream without any luck so far.

Code: Select all

#EXTM3U\r\n#EXTINF:0 type=\"stream\" channelId=\"-1\" aspect-ratio=\"16:9\", Test MJPEG\r\nhttp://192.168.1.21:8080/stream/video.mjpeg\r\n


The mjpeg stream comes from an IP camera. I cannot convert it to m3u8. The only conversion possible would be h264, but with loss of quality and increase of delay, which I rather won't do.

The TV web browser opens this stream (http://192.168.1.21:8080/stream/video.mjpeg).

Is there a way to play this stream on SS-IPTV?

Why do I see regular expressions in your code?

You can try to use value image for type attribute instead of stream. Something like that:

Code: Select all

#EXTM3U
#EXTINF:0 type="image", Test MJPEG

Removed regular expressions.

Now, the m3u file looks like this

Code: Select all

#EXTM3U
#EXTINF:0 type="image" channelId="-1" aspect-ratio="16:9", Test MJPEG
http://192.168.1.21:8080/stream/video.mjpeg

Doesn't work either with type="image"

Tried also with

Code: Select all

#EXTM3U
#EXTINF:0 type="image", Test MJPEG
http://192.168.1.21:8080/stream/video.mjpeg

and same (not working) result.
