Welcome to the M3U8 Proxy Server! Tired of dealing with those pesky CORS errors when trying to stream your M3U8 files? Fear not, because our proxy server is here to save the day!
This Node.js application acts as a middleman between your requests and the M3U8 files you're trying to access. Just drop your M3U8 link into the input box, and we'll take care of the rest. Our server proxies the M3U8 file and provides you with a new link to use—free from CORS troubles.
Host your own instance of M3U8-Proxy on vercel
Host your own instance of M3U8-Proxy on Render.
- Create an example starter worker in your cloudflare account

- Enter Your M3U8 Link: Simply input your M3U8 URL into the provided input box.
- Get a Proxied Link: Our server fetches the M3U8 file and proxies it for you.
- Use the Proxied Link: Replace your original link with the new proxied link in your platform.
More info can be found in .env.example file

If you want to use the proxy directly, append your M3U8 link to the following URL:
https://<deployed_web_server>/m3u8-proxy?url={url}
For example, if your M3U8 link is https://example.com/stream.m3u8, you would use:
https://<deployed_web_server>/m3u8-proxy?url=https://example.com/stream.m3u8
You can watch a demo of the proxy server in action using the MP4 video file below:
demo.mp4
Here’s how you can use Video.js to play the proxied URL:
