IPTV stream stops in browser

[VCR58]

Did you try using vaapi transcoding?

Just now I did. The stream still stops about the same time as CPU. Don't know if it's required to restart the server after making the change but I did.

It's because the IPTV stream took too long to deliver new data. I've made the timing a little more flexible for the next build, which will hopefully help.

If your IPTV provider has ts streams instead of m3u8 streams, you may find these are better, since the data arrives at a consistent pace, rather than chunks every 10 or so seconds.

Ok. I'm still using the free links on Github as they seem to work but I don't think there are ts streams available.
I'll try again the next build.
Thanks

They're probably not the most reliable streams. ie, if they're leaked versions of a personal account, they may only work until the next user somewhere else in the world tries to view the stream.

I agree. In fact, I have yet to find a valid IPTV subscription that allows anything other than a browser or smart TV to view their streams here in North America.
