原文外掛簡介
MediaBlaster is the next evolution of WP Smart TV.
Originally launched as WP Smart TV, the plugin helped WordPress users create IPTV-style video feeds for platforms like Roku Direct Publisher. Roku Direct Publisher is discontinued, and the live Roku JSON feed has moved to the separate WP Smart TV – Legacy plugin (https://github.com/rovidxmedia/wp-smart-tv-legacy). MediaBlaster is the forward path for video CMS, players, podcasts, subscriptions, and the /wp-json/mediablaster/v3/ REST API.
That is why WP Smart TV has been renamed and rebuilt as MediaBlaster.
MediaBlaster is a WordPress-powered media CMS for creators, publishers, educators, filmmakers, podcasters, and businesses that want to organize, publish, and monetize video and audio content from one central place.
Use it to build:
Video libraries
IPTV-style content catalogs
Podcast and episode archives
Membership-based media sites
Headless WordPress media backends
Custom video websites
Roku, mobile, TV, or web app content sources
AI-assisted media brands and creator platforms

WP Smart TV is now MediaBlaster
If you previously used WP Smart TV, this is the same plugin project moving forward under a new name.
The name has changed because the plugin is no longer focused only on “smart TV” or Roku Direct Publisher workflows. MediaBlaster is designed for the broader media publishing landscape: web video, Vimeo libraries, podcasts, subscriptions, headless WordPress, custom apps, and creator-led media platforms.
Important notes for existing users:
Existing WP Smart TV content remains supported.
Existing video post types and metadata are preserved where possible.
The user-facing name is now MediaBlaster.
The live Roku Direct Publisher REST feed (/wp-json/tv/roku/) and legacy /wp-json/wpst/v1/ routes are not registered in 3.0.0.
Roku Direct Publisher admin screens (Roku Settings, Recipes, feed export) have been removed from MediaBlaster.
If you still need a Roku Direct Publisher JSON feed, use the separate WP Smart TV – Legacy plugin: https://github.com/rovidxmedia/wp-smart-tv-legacy
New development is focused on MediaBlaster as a modern WordPress media platform (REST API, players, podcasts, subscriptions).
Key Features
Video CMS for WordPress
MediaBlaster adds structured media content management to WordPress, allowing you to organize video content using dedicated media post types and metadata.
Manage:
Movies
Episodes
Series
Short-form videos
Video metadata
Thumbnails
Captions
HLS and MP4 video URLs
Vimeo-connected media
Legacy video metadata (captions, trickplay, ad breaks) when Legacy Controls are enabled
MediaBlaster Player
MediaBlaster includes a modern HTML5 video player powered by Video.js with a native fallback.
Embed methods (all use the same PHP renderer):
Shortcode [mediablaster_player] (legacy alias: [tv-video-player])
Gutenberg block mediablaster/player
Elementor widget (when Elementor is active)
Features include HLS/DASH/MP4 playback, captions and chapter tracks, subscription-aware locked states, and post-backed source resolution from MediaBlaster video meta.
Vimeo Integration
Vimeo integration is built into the core plugin but disabled by default. Enable it under MediaBlaster → General Settings → Enable Vimeo Integration.
MediaBlaster supports creators and publishers using Vimeo Pro, Business, or other Vimeo-hosted libraries.
Features include:
Vimeo OAuth connection flow
Vimeo video URL support
Vimeo metadata syncing
Thumbnail importing
HLS video URL support where available
Tags, titles, and descriptions
Guided Vimeo Mass Import workflow
Review-before-import process
This replaces the older separate Vimeo Extender workflow and brings Vimeo support directly into the core plugin.
Modern Vimeo Mass Importer
The Vimeo Mass Importer has been redesigned to make importing large video libraries easier.
The new importer includes:
Cleaner card-based interface
Import readiness status
Review & Import step
Collapsed advanced settings
Loading and progress states
Better error handling
Simpler workflow for non-technical users
Podcast & Episode Publishing (Beta)
Podcast support is built into MediaBlaster but disabled by default. Enable it under MediaBlaster → General Settings → Enable Podcasts.
When enabled, MediaBlaster adds:
Podcast Shows and Podcast Episodes custom post types
Per-show RSS feeds (Apple Podcasts / Spotify-compatible)
Public show and episode pages (optional)
Podcast Settings tab (RSS bases, public URLs, premium teasers when subscriptions are on)
REST API at /wp-json/mediablaster/v3/podcasts
Podcast Audio Player — shortcode [mediablaster_audio_player], Gutenberg block mediablaster/audio-player, Elementor widget, and default episode templates
Podcast features are in beta and may change in future releases.
Subscription Foundation
MediaBlaster includes a subscription and entitlement foundation for publishers who want to restrict access to premium content.
Subscription features include:
Subscription tiers
Access groups
Manual subscriber management
Subscriber access rules
Subscription-aware video and podcast content controls
REST API auth and subscriber status endpoints
Shortcodes for subscribe/account workflows
Subscriptions are disabled by default. Enable early access by adding define( 'WPST_SUBSCRIPTIONS_ENABLED', true ); to wp-config.php, then configure under MediaBlaster → Subscriptions.
Stripe Checkout Support
MediaBlaster includes early Stripe Checkout support for web-based subscriptions.
Stripe features include:
Stripe hosted checkout
Stripe billing portal
Tier-to-Stripe Price ID mapping
Stripe webhook handling
Subscription sync tools
Stripe checkout shortcode
Public subscription app configuration endpoint (GET /app/config)
Additional payment provider support is planned for app and platform-based payment workflows.
App Config
MediaBlaster includes a platform app configuration system for connected TV and mobile clients.
Admin: MediaBlaster → App Config (under General Settings) with an App Settings tab (additional platforms planned)
Public REST: GET /wp-json/mediablaster/v3/config?platform=roku
Configure branding colors (color picker + custom hex), fallback hero/poster images (URL, pkg: path, or Media Library), navigation features, labels, home layout, and boot behavior
Saved settings merge with sensible defaults; homeRows returns [] in v1
Distinct from subscription GET /app/config (Stripe and auth client settings)
REST API for Headless and App Builds
MediaBlaster includes a modern REST API foundation under:
/wp-json/mediablaster/v3/
This API is designed for:
Headless WordPress sites
Custom front ends
Mobile apps
Roku apps
TV apps
AI-generated front ends
Subscriber-aware media apps
The goal is to make WordPress the content hub while allowing developers and creators to build whatever front end they need.
Legacy WP Smart TV Compatibility
MediaBlaster preserves existing WP Smart TV content and metadata, but does not serve the Roku Direct Publisher REST feed in 3.0.0.
Removed in MediaBlaster 3.0.0:
Live Roku Direct Publisher feed at /wp-json/tv/roku/
Legacy REST namespace /wp-json/wpst/v1/
Roku Direct Publisher admin screens (Roku Settings, Recipes, feed export UI)
Still available in MediaBlaster:
Existing video post types, rovidx_smarttv_* meta, and series structures
Optional Legacy Controls on General Settings (trickplay/BIF, subtitles, advanced fields, advertising metaboxes)
Roku JSON import logic (internal; admin Import/Export tab removed — use REST API or the legacy plugin for feed output)
Internal Roku feed builder class (for compatibility hooks only; not registered as a public REST route)
Need a Roku Direct Publisher JSON feed? Install the open-source legacy plugin maintained separately:
https://github.com/rovidxmedia/wp-smart-tv-legacy
That plugin (WP Smart TV – Legacy, v2.3.0) continues bug-fix support for Roku Direct Publisher workflows. MediaBlaster 3.0.0+ is the forward path for REST API, players, podcasts, and subscriptions.
Shortcodes
MediaBlaster includes shortcodes for displaying and interacting with media content inside WordPress pages and posts.
Available shortcodes include:
[mediablaster_player] / [tv-video-player] — video player
[mediablaster_audio_player] — podcast audio player (podcasts enabled)
[wpst_subscribe] / [wpst_stripe_checkout] — Stripe checkout (subscriptions enabled)
[wpst_account] — subscriber account and billing portal (subscriptions enabled)
Shortcode availability depends on which features are enabled.
Built-in Documentation
MediaBlaster includes in-plugin documentation inside WordPress admin.
Look for:
MediaBlaster → Docs
Documentation may include setup guides for:
App Config (Roku and platform app settings)
Vimeo integration
Subscriptions
Stripe Checkout
REST API usage
MediaBlaster Player and Podcast Audio Player
Podcast publishing

Who MediaBlaster Is For
MediaBlaster is built for:
Video creators
Podcasters
Course creators
Filmmakers
Churches and ministries
Educators
Local media companies
Niche streaming publishers
AI content creators
Agencies building media websites for clients
Developers building custom app front ends
Businesses that want a branded media library
If you want WordPress to act as the hub for a media-driven website, video platform, podcast network, or custom streaming app, MediaBlaster is built for that direction.
What MediaBlaster Is Not
MediaBlaster is not a video hosting service.
You still need to host your media files with a proper video host, CDN, Vimeo account, cloud storage provider, or other media delivery system.
MediaBlaster helps you organize, manage, display, structure, and publish your media from WordPress.
Recommended Media Hosting
MediaBlaster works best when paired with a dedicated media hosting solution.
Common options include:
Vimeo
Bunny.net
Cloudflare Stream
Amazon S3 and CloudFront
Wasabi
Custom HLS hosting
Other CDN-backed media storage
YouTube is generally not recommended for direct video feed workflows because YouTube does not provide the direct HLS or MP4 URLs required for many custom video player and app workflows.
Getting Started
After activating MediaBlaster:
Go to MediaBlaster → General Settings.
Choose which media features you want to enable (post types, Vimeo, podcasts).
If using Vimeo, enable Vimeo Integration and connect your Vimeo app.
If using podcasts, enable Podcasts and configure Podcast Settings.
Add or import your video or podcast content.
Review your content metadata.
Use MediaBlaster shortcodes, templates, or REST API endpoints to publish your content.
Visit MediaBlaster → Docs for setup guides.

Planned areas of focus include:
Podcast publishing improvements (currently in beta)
More REST API endpoints
Improved headless front-end support

Developer Notes
MediaBlaster is designed to support both traditional WordPress sites and headless WordPress builds.

Potential use cases include:
Custom WordPress themes
Next.js front ends
React Native apps
Roku apps
Expo mobile apps
TV-style interfaces
Subscriber-only media portals
AI-generated content sites
Niche streaming networks
