WP Smart TV vs Media Blaster
The json feed file - wp smart tv was good for creating the json feed file. we had to do redirects after the app went out to keep it working to grab the feed. Today all our apps on Roku are SDK and we use media management platform to add our videos and playlist and livesream to Roku. Hopefully the MediaBlaster project might help replace or be a backup for that. If the Media Blaster creates the json feed then we can grab that to use in our sdk packages or maybe the media blaster can create an SDK package!

Hey Joe! Thanks for the feedback. MediaBlaster does have JSON feeds for content and we are working on a Roku SDK app that should be out in a few weeks. Plus we have plans for other platforms like mobile apps and Google TV and FireTV
What type of business or project would you use a Roku app for?

Thanks for sharing this, LaMon. Just a quick note for everyone: PLAi TV is LaMon’s own independent platform and isn’t part of the official MediaBlaster brand or roadmap. That said, this is exactly the kind of AI video/distribution project that’s interesting to see in here. If anyone checks it out, feel free to ask LaMon questions about what he’s building, how creators can use it, and what kind of AI video content he’s looking for. We’re happy to have members share useful projects, just want to keep things clear and transparent for the community.
Big update coming: WP Smart TV is evolving into MediaBlaster 🚀
Something unexpected happened after I sent out the first email about this Skool community. A bunch of people replied. And the thing that stood out was this: A lot of you are still using WP Smart TV. Honestly, I didn’t fully realize that. I knew people had installed it over the years, but after Roku Direct Publisher shut down and the IPTV landscape changed, I assumed most people had moved on. Meanwhile, behind the scenes, I’ve actually been working on a major transformation of WP Smart TV for about a year. The new version is called MediaBlaster. And for a while, it was just sitting on my hard drive. Not because I didn’t believe in it. But because I wasn’t sure if people still cared about this problem. Then the emails came in. People were asking about IPTV apps. Video publishing. Roku-style front ends. Using WordPress as the engine for their media platform. That changed things. So now we’re bringing MediaBlaster back to the front burner. The old WP Smart TV plugin was built to help people publish video content from WordPress. MediaBlaster is the next evolution of that idea. It’s being rebuilt for creators, agencies, publishers, and AI-powered media builders who want to turn WordPress into the backbone of a real media platform. Here’s what we’re working toward: ✅ Better video publishing tools ✅ Vimeo importing and management ✅ Podcast support with shows and episodes ✅ REST API endpoints for headless sites and apps ✅ Subscription and premium content tools ✅ AI-agent-friendly workflows ✅ Documentation for building front ends and apps ✅ Tutorials for using AI to move faster ✅ A clearer path from “I have content” to “I have a media platform” The bigger vision is simple: MediaBlaster should help you build your own video site, podcast network, course library, streaming-style platform, or AI-powered media brand using WordPress as the engine. And this Skool community is going to be a big part of that. We’ll share the build process, the prompts, the tutorials, the documentation, the mistakes, and the workflows we’re using along the way.

For context: MediaBlaster isn’t just a name change. The goal is to turn the old WP Smart TV idea into a much bigger creator toolkit — video, podcasts, headless WordPress, APIs, subscriptions, AI workflows, and documentation for building real media platforms. The plugin is almost ready, so now I’m trying to figure out what people actually want to build with it first.
