Sharing nginx-rtmp config for geo-unblocking family Disney+ access. Worked six months.

Setup: Time4VPS VPS in Vilnius, nginx-rtmp pushing to family Fire Sticks. WireGuard for management. All automated with Ansible.

Then cousin shared login with his "study group." Thirty devices from three countries. Disney+ blocked the whole ASN within 48 hours.

Ticket said: "unauthorized redistribution of content." Ticket also said: "we observed 47 concurrent streams from single residential account." The ticket said a lot of things.

Pivoted to "educational DNS project" for documentation purposes. Same infra, different git repo name.

Config below. Do not use for copyright infringement. Educational only.

# nginx-rtmp educational example
rtmp {
    server {
        listen 1935;
        application live {
            live on;
            # push rtmp://family-endpoint;
        }
    }
}
reported. resolved. repeat.

Caramba! 47 streams, nossa!

I never share login with family, they do not understand "for personal use only no?" Double negation is not not a problem here

Your nginx config is meandering like river, very warm setup. But Disney+ is smart now, they catch this fast. Maybe educational DNS project need educational VPN too, no?

The ASN block is—this happened to me on KnownHost once—never the single IP, always the whole range—because Disney+ buys threat intel feeds—interrupted myself there—what I meant was your Ansible is the real hero here—pivoting that fast—but WireGuard on 443 might—no, they detect handshake patterns now—original point was—use VLESS or something—distracted by—how did you get rtmp through Time4VPS firewall—

Very nice setup. I made VPS last month for family too, but only 3 users. Thank you very much for sharing config.

@adam20 Did you try request new IP from Time4VPS? Or they block ASN forever? Maybe move to different provider, start fresh. I use Leaseweb for similar project, no problem yet.

Please be careful with cousin.

My box on RackNerd, this is for streaming , xd, no problem with streaming

This is very funny, ticket said 47 streams, xd, Disney+ is not stupid no? I swap to "educational DNS project" too, xd, but I call this "family cloud", same thing

For new ASN block, I buy IP from different region, this is cheap, no? Vultr have good IP price, I use this for backup, xd

Your config have mistake, rtmp need dash not rtmp for Disney+, I think, no? I fix this on my szerwer

POLISH SERVERS. LOUD FANS. GOOD PRICE.

Which Time4VPS plan handles 47 concurrent rtmp streams?

Disney+ buys threat intel feeds? That's a stretch, Craig.
