Seamless source failover
Several sources per channel. When one stalls, errors or ends, the next working source takes over while viewers stay connected.
Features
Built for operators who cannot afford downtime
What NeXa does today, grouped by area. Every item below is part of the current panel.
Streaming engine
Live channels that survive bad sources
Live channels run in their own stream engine, which keeps running while the panel is updated.
One upstream for everyone
Each source is read once and shared by all viewers of the channel, with a prebuffer so new viewers start quickly.
Created channels
Turn a playlist of movies and episodes into a 24/7 linear channel, in order or shuffled, without re-encoding.
TV archive and catch-up
Minute-by-minute recording per channel with days to keep, a disk guard, and catch-up as TS or HLS.
Movies and series
VOD and series with TMDb metadata, import with review, duplicate detection and bulk episode adding.
Load balancers
Spread viewers, survive outages
A load balancer is any Ubuntu server running the small NeXa node agent. Nodes never see the database.
One-command install
Servers → Add server shows a command to run on the new machine. The agent runs as its own user under systemd.
Signed tickets
Viewers are checked on the main panel and sent to a node with a ticket that is valid for 60 seconds, from their address only.
Automatic failover
Every node is checked every 2 seconds. A node that fails, stops reporting or is full gets no new viewers.
Sticky viewers
A viewer who comes back within 2 minutes returns to the same server while it is usable.
Maintenance mode
Drain a node: no new viewers, current viewers keep watching. Disable it to move everyone off.
Archive on nodes
A node can record a channel for catch-up from its own copy of the stream; the main server takes over while it is down.
Resellers and credits
Sell through a reseller tree
Every reseller sees only its own part of the tree, on every page and in every API answer.
Reseller tree
Resellers with sub-resellers to any depth. Parents manage their sub-resellers, never the other way round.
Credits
Lines are created and extended from a credit balance. Top-ups, transfers and charges all land in the credit log.
Member groups
Named permission sets for resellers with their packages, prices, trial rules and a dashboard notice.
Admin groups
Give staff only the admin areas they need. Menus, pages and buttons follow the group.
Admin and reseller API
API keys that act as their owner: read-only or full, limited by IP, rate limited, shown once and revocable.
Audit log
Changes made in the panel or with a key are recorded with who did it.
Players and compatibility
Works with the apps your customers use
NeXa answers the Xtream API, so players built for it can log in with a line's username and password.
Xtream API compatible players
Live channels, movies, series and catch-up through the player API, plus M3U playlists.
Migration from other panels
The setup wizard imports a database dump and keeps IDs, so existing playlists and logins keep working.
Works on a phone
Tables, forms and dashboards adapt down to small screens, so resellers can work from anywhere.
Security
Locks on every endpoint
Refusals look like a wrong password to the player and are written to the security log for you.
DNS lock
Per reseller: the host names its lines may use, inherited down the tree and only narrowed below.
Country lock
Per line, reseller and member group, checked on every player endpoint. Forged forwarding headers are ignored.
IP lock
Allowed IPs and CIDR ranges per line and a limit on how many addresses may watch at once.
ISP lock and network blocks
Bind a line to its network, and block hosting networks, proxies and VPNs.
User agent lock
Allowed user agents per line; known library and scraping user agents are refused.
Scanner protection and 2FA
Brute-force and scanner bans, honeypot usernames, sign-in lockout and optional two-factor sign-in for accounts.
Operations
Backups, monitoring and alerts
The things you need at 3 a.m. are already there.
Dashboard
Connections, viewers, throughput and live streams at a glance, server cards with CPU, RAM, disk and network, and an Action required list.
Encrypted backups
Scheduled database backups encrypted with your own key, with retention. Downloads need the password and work once.
Off-site copies
Copy every backup to S3-compatible storage and SFTP servers, and run a weekly restore test.
Telegram and Discord
Announce new content to your channel and send panel alerts (server down, stream down, failed backup) to a separate chat.
First-run wizard
A new panel asks once: start fresh, or migrate from another panel.
