Thread: Using Blueiris as encoder to facilitate an iptv broadcast

Hi folks, I'm looking to set up Blueiris as an encoder, or a stream output that feeds an encoder, in order to create IPTV feeds based on the camera feeds.

My office has a lot of interior offices and we've been tasked to find a way to mount cameras on the roof and broadcast the picturesque view to TVs/monitors people will have in their offices. This is to improve overall employee morale as some folks have interior offices that don't see daylight for hours and based on where we live, it's possible for someone to come to work when it's dark and leave when it's dark - unless they force themselves to leave the building.

The physical cabling aside, I've been looking into Thor broadcast encoders that can receive RTSP signals, encode them and create an IPTV stream so we can install a player on the tv that can then be used to change between the different streams/cameras, or allow people to stream on their computers.

I started thinking I have BI at home for my setup and perhaps I could put together a system that would act as this Thor unit.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

It's excellent to read about your project to use Blueiris as an encoder for creating IPTV feeds based on camera feeds. The idea of bringing the outdoors to interior offices is a thoughtful way to enhance employee morale. Utilizing Thor broadcast encoders to receive and encode RTSP signals for IPTV streams is a smart move. Incorporating your Blueiris setup from home could potentially work well, offering a cost-effective solution.
