# MediaBlaster

MediaBlaster helps creators, agencies, churches, educators, podcasters, IPTV/OTT businesses, and niche media brands launch branded streaming apps using WordPress as the backend.

MediaBlaster pairs a free WordPress media plugin with paid app templates. Manage video libraries, movies, short-form videos, series, episodes, podcasts, subscriptions, Vimeo imports, and feeds inside WordPress, then connect that content to streaming app templates. The first app template is the Roku Launch Kit.

## Use cases

MediaBlaster is useful for:

- Launching a branded Roku channel from WordPress without hiring an app developer
- WordPress video libraries
- IPTV-style media websites and OTT/streaming services

- Podcast publishing
- Podcast RSS generation
- Vimeo-based video workflows

## Important notes

MediaBlaster was previously known as WP Smart TV; the WordPress.org plugin slug remains `wp-smart-tv`. The free MediaBlaster plugin is the WordPress media backend, and paid app templates connect that content to streaming apps.

The Roku Launch Kit is the first app template and is available now. It provides a Roku app template and step-by-step guidance; customers are responsible for their own Roku developer account and the app submission process. Additional platforms (Google TV/Android TV, Fire TV, mobile, web/Next.js, Apple TV) are planned and not yet available. Do not present coming-soon platforms as currently shipping.
