some ip channels stopped playing in NetxPVR only

[ciccio]

Once NextPVR is running in a command windows you can test from Kodi.

Something outside NextPVR changed I guess.

Nope. is a little outside my knowhow. Thanks

On thing I see is your site doesn't like the VLC user agent NextPVR is sending. This fails

Code:

"C:\Program Files\NextPVR\Other\ffplay" "https://mediapolis.rai.it/relinker/relinkerServlet.htm?cont=2606803" -user_agent "VLC/2.2.6 LibVLC/2.2.6"

as well as anything with VLC in the user_agent

can i disable this or is it just remove

Unless sub adds an option to override the VLC user agent you may need to contact the stations and ask why they are blocking VLC. @sub do you support the |user-agent option in IPTV?

If you save this as extra-rai.xml in the NextPVR data folder and go to device and add it as a station it might work, it's worth a try.

Code:

<extras>
  <channel name="RAI">
    <command>c:/Program Files/NextPVR/Other/ffmpeg.exe</command>
    <args>-i  https://mediapolis.rai.it/relinker/relinkerServlet.htm?cont=2606803 -codec copy -f mpegts -</args>
  </channel>
</extras>

Sub is the author of NextPVR and the only one who can change the code.

Under device you should see an new tuner, if not use Ctrl-F5 and rescan.

ive added xmxl but cannot see tuner (see pic) 

how can i contact sub

That link returns a redirect to a 16 second mp4 file with the message saying the content is region locked to Italy. It's hard to know what it might return in Italy, where it's not geo-blocked. If ffplay can stream, it should work in NextPVR.

The 16 second mp4 file it's currently returning isn't long enough to keep things the video flowing, to appear as live tv in NextPVR. (ie, it probably downloads it all in a second or two, then the stream ends)

Hi Sub.

mvallevand has suggested that it might be a code thing and only you can do this. might this help others going forward

[mvallevand]

If you have C:\Users\Public\NPVR-data\extra-rai.xml then you may need to restart the recording service if Ctrl-F5 and rescan don't work to find it. Once that happens you should have an Extra device that you can scan.
