Is there a backend server that can use IP/TV http links with h.264 video?

Is there a backend server that can use IP/TV http links with h.264 video (no only MPEG2 as VDR) preferably for linux?
Now I use tvheadend for multicast udp channels, and demo plugin for http channels.
Ubuntu 22.04, Linux desktop 5.15.0-57-generic #63-Ubuntu SMP Thu Nov 24 13:43:17 UTC 2022 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Kodi (20.1 (20.1.0) Git:20230312-289ec664e3). Platform: Linux x86 64-bit
Sony Android TV, Kodi 20.1

I'd like to do this too. Instead of using video plugins or strm files, I'd like to be able to add Internet tv (http/rtp/rtmp) streams as channels in the live tv section. The EPG info could be gotten from XMLTV feeds. Is anything like this currently possible? Either in XBMC directly or in a backend?

I've had a bit more of a play and I have found that the Demo PVR client (Frodo, on Windows 7) will play back most formats - http, rtmp, mms, and all of the streams I've tried are h.264 (from http://thestreamdb.com/). I have 9 streams in my PVRDemoAddonSettings.xml. I start my channel numbers at 101. However, when I start the cmyth client at the same time, I can not see my Myth TV backend channels (even though these channels start at 1 and go up to 99). When I start the cymth client, the Demo channels change from 101-109 and become 1-9, but I can't see the Myth channels. It would be nice to mix my DVB channels (from MythTV) with my rtmp streams (from PVR Demo).

You can add http URLs to mpeg streams as "tuners" with the NextPVR (Windows) backend http://forums.gbpvr.com/showthread.php?5...-Streaming
