New PC won't load M3U or Xtream codes.

Hi all, new member here. This is my first post so please let me know if something isn't right.

I started using NextPVR on an older W11 Home PC and it worked so well that I decided to get a  new, dedicated Mini PC for home theater use. Purchased a Beelink SER8, Ryzen 7 8745HS, running W11 Pro. Installing my IPTV credentials on the older PC, and a newer laptop also running W11 Home, was no problem. However, all attempts to install the M3u or Extream codes on the new Mini PC have failed resulting in the following error message: " Failed to download channel list: An error occurred while sending the request ". The message appears immediately and, yes, I'm sure that they are being entered correctly, no errors.

I know that the credentials are good, they work fine on the other 2 W11 Home PC's and an Android player. I also installed NextPVR in Kodi on the older PC and it works fine. I just cannot get the credentials to work on the new PC. The only differences, that I can see, are that the new Mini PC is using an AMD chip and running W11 Pro. I'm pretty sure that this is a machine / OS related problem as I've tried another IPTV player and VLC in the new PC and they, also, will not download the channel list from my provider.

At this point I'm looking for some advice from experienced users as I'm obviously missing something. I've tried to attach my logs but am not sure if I've done it correctly. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

It won't be the chipset, if you are 100% certain your XC credentials work in the another instance of NextPVR, it will probably be other permissions like firewall, antivirus, or possibly VPN or othe networking issue.

Martin:

Thanks so much for your quick reply and helpful suggestions. It was, in fact, the firewall in W11 Pro. Problem solved. NextPVR is up and running on the new mini PC. Thanks again.

Best regards
