Can't see the player on HTTPS site

I can't see the streming player on my HTTPS wordpress site (Aruba provider)

I installed Restreamer on a Raspberry 4 B+ following a tutorial on YouTube.

I can see the stream player with no problems when I stream via my public IP on 8080 port but I can't when I stream via HTTPS on my site(Aruba provider) and I opened and forwarded ports :(

I took a look here and other people had the same problem, Is there anyone here who has succeeded ?

The player is not shown on your wordpress site because it is HTTPS and the Restreamer not. Browsers will not load HTTP content on a HTTPS site. You have to enable HTTPS for your Restreamer.

In order for the Let's Encrypt verification process to succeed, your Restreamer must be available on port 80 on your public IP and you need a (sub)domain name pointing to your public IP.

Thank you for your help, I spent last days studying and trying to set it correcltly but nothing... I think I forwarded ports correctly and setted a subdomain pointing to the public Ip correctly. I tested it with a DNS checker too...please take a look to these screenshots: dns config dns checker forwarding 80 forwarding 443

I think you need to swap these values. For HTTP Port to device 8080 throug... 8080 and Port requested externally 80 and for HTTPS Port to device 8181 throug... 8181 and Port requested externally 443.

I tried for days doing research on my Fritzbox router, then I realized that I had to download my site's SSL certificate file and upload it into the router! Furthermore, I had to delete ":8181" from the final link generated by the restreamer to make it works :)
