Tappla doesn’t host your videos. Instead, it connects to the place where your videos are already hosted — like Vimeo, a CDN, or your own server — and makes them available in your Apple TV, Fire TV, Roku, or Google TV apps.

When you connect a video source, Tappla imports your video data (titles, thumbnails, playlists, streaming URLs) and keeps it updated. That way, you don’t need to re-upload or duplicate content.

Your options

1. Connect Vimeo (automatic sync)

  • Best for: users who already manage videos in Vimeo.

  • Tappla syncs your Vimeo playlists, videos, thumbnails, and metadata automatically (updates every 24–48h).

2. Connect a JSON feed (automatic sync)

  • Best for: platforms that provide a feed (BoxCast, ScaleEngine, Streamhoster, DynTube).

  • Paste your feed URL and Tappla will keep videos, playlists, and metadata synced.

3. Add videos manually (no sync)

  • Best for: adding a few videos or live streams outside your main source.

  • Paste HLS (.m3u8) URLs and enter metadata one by one.
