404 error when opening IPTV stream

[xbmcgotham]

Just try it with a single channel, to see if that is the problem.

If it is the problem, I could see about making a change to automatically strip those characters out.

Thanks! I will get back to you tomorrow. Have a nice evening.

I am not convinced it is the pipe characters since we have seen that often enough.

It is certainly part of what is happening in his logs. I can see some web transcode attempts with the | character in the filename.

I am wondering how many sessions you have set up per IPTV device?

I was also wondering about this.

It does look like the 404's are related to his source already being in use, and maybe limited to a single connection.

I dont think the connection is limited to 1. I tested by using the same user account through 2 different ISP's at the same time. Both where playing channels without one being blocked. Unless its blocking two connections from the same IP source.

When you go into the device in Settings->Devices, when do you have the connection limit set to?

I have set it to 4.

So update: very strange, when switching on the Android TV box and opening the channel which name that was changed, it worked, however, all the other channels worked as well without changed names.

Running the same channels on 2 devices from same ISP also worked.

So not sure why now its resolved, especially as I had rebooted the device yesterday as well.

I guess issue resolved for now. 

Thanks again for helping out! Enjoy your day.
