Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about MediaBlaster – Build a Video Streaming Website, Podcast Network & Roku App
WP Smart TV has been renamed and rebuilt as MediaBlaster. The old WP Smart TV name no longer represents the direction of the plugin. MediaBlaster is the new name for the project moving forward.
The plugin started during the Roku Direct Publisher era. Since then, the media publishing landscape has changed. Creators now need tools for websites, apps, podcasts, subscriptions, AI-assisted media workflows, Vimeo libraries, headless WordPress, and custom streaming platforms. The MediaBlaster name better reflects the broader purpose of the plugin.
The goal is to preserve existing content and metadata wherever possible. Existing users should back up their site before upgrading, especially when moving from older WP Smart TV versions to MediaBlaster 3.x.
Not as a live JSON feed in 3.0.0. MediaBlaster removed the /wp-json/tv/roku/ REST endpoint and Roku-specific admin screens because Roku Direct Publisher is discontinued. Your existing video content and metadata remain in WordPress. For a Roku Direct Publisher JSON feed, install WP Smart TV – Legacy from GitHub: https://github.com/rovidxmedia/wp-smart-tv-legacy For new app and device workflows, use the MediaBlaster REST API at /wp-json/mediablaster/v3/ or build a custom Roku channel against that API.
No. MediaBlaster is not a video hosting service. You should host your media files with Vimeo, Bunny.net, Cloudflare Stream, Amazon S3, Wasabi, or another media hosting/CDN provider.
Yes. MediaBlaster includes built-in Vimeo integration. You can connect Vimeo, import video metadata, sync thumbnails, and use Vimeo-hosted video data inside your WordPress media library.
Not for direct video app/feed workflows. YouTube does not provide the direct media URLs required for many IPTV, app, and custom video player use cases.
Yes. Enable Enable Podcasts under MediaBlaster → General Settings, then configure Podcast Settings and create shows and episodes. Podcast features include RSS feeds, public pages, REST API output, and the Podcast Audio Player. Podcast support is in beta and may evolve in future releases.
Yes. MediaBlaster includes a REST API foundation designed for headless WordPress, custom front ends, mobile apps, TV apps, and other app-based media experiences.
MediaBlaster includes a subscription foundation and early Stripe Checkout support. Subscription features are disabled by default and can be enabled when needed.
