BBC News HD - Embed M3U8 playlist as extras device

Thanks - I see what you mean now, particularly with the verbose logging and I've added that into the argument. Unfortunately, the issue persists I'm afraid. The Web GUI in conjunction with the logs states this after about 15-20 seconds of attempting to start the extra stream - Streaming Failed (transcoder exited).

Cheers,

Hi Martin,
Thanks very much for your response. Trying this via the IPTV client on Version: 5.2.7.220410, I press import and the website states 0 channels no longer exist and have been deleted.

You'd need to create a temporary m3u file to import a single url like this.

ie, create a c:\temp\bbdhd.m3u

Code:

#EXTM3U
#EXTINF:120,BBCHD

The use the "import m3u" feature, and set the url to c:\temp\bbdhd.m3u
