IS TV Proxy

Proxy for Icelandic TV Streams that strips out geoblocking and authentication.

Requirements:

• Python 2.7.x
• Virtualenv
• Docker

Installation:

You can choose between running the service in a virtual environment or run the service as a Docker image.

Virtualenv:

virtualenv venv

source venv/bin/activate

pip install -r requirements.txt

python istvproxy.py --port <PORT>(optional, default=13377) --host <HOST>(optional) --ozusername <USERNAME>(optional) --ozpassword <PASSWORD>(optional) --siminndeviceid <DEVICE_ID>(optional)

HTTP server gets started at the chosen port. If the ozusername and ozpassword parameters are provided, it connects to Oz and adds the available channels for the user to the server. If not, only the RUV tv streams are added which don't require authentication.

Docker:

Build and run the image.

docker build -t istvproxy:latest .

docker run -d -t -p 13377:13377 istvproxy

If you need to run the service on other host or port the -p flag needs to be edited.

-p 0.0.0.0:13377:13377

Edit the Dockerfile if any additional flags are needed. If you need to change the host or port edit the following docker run command.

CMD ["istvproxy.py", "--ozusername", "<USERNAME>", "--ozpassword", "<PASSWORD>", "--siminndeviceid", "<DEVICE_ID>"]

Usage:

This server needs to be run on a computer with an Icelandic IP Address because of geoblocking.

• http://host:port/ Gives you a web HLS player with a channel selector

• http://host:port/channels.json gives a JSON list of channel streams that can be used in other applications such as Kodi, Plex or Emby.
