Need suggestions to stream media files to iOS Clients

[wayner]

I have been using AirVideoHD, which has a Docker, to stream video files to my iPad and iPhone.  These files can be TV shows that are currently airing live that are airing live and  they don't really fit into an app like Plex as Plex wants metadata.  I just want to stream a file from a folder on my media/tv share.

 

AirVideoHD hasn't been supported for years and has a few bugs from time to time.  And I am worried that it may stop working in future iOS releases.

 

Anyone have any other ideas.

Have you tried something like VLC that can play most video files directly off SMB shares.  

 

I personally use inFuse to play files off my server but that does have a subscription cost associated with it.
