Few IPTV streams failed to play but works on VLAN (0x150001 - Likely end of VOD)

Hi there

I have a M3U playlist for IPTV
Few of them (2-3) are failing to play on Next PVR while they work perfectly fine when the M3U file is played with Video LAN

I attached the log files from a fresh NextPVR install to avoid any noise
If needed I can share privately an extract of the M3U containing 2 failing and 1 working channel

Thanks

Do you mean VLC or VLAN in the title?

NextPVR needs to forward an m3u8 file to ffmpeg. Are you saying VLC can play a php URL?

Sorry, I meant Video Lan
This is a M3U8 playlist
I have other IPTV stream in the list which are working perfectly fine; only few 2-3 of them failed with the logs I have attached
The temporary ts and map files are created and then deleted once it failed

Thanks

Yes I know it is an m3u8 list, but it looks like it loads a php file which NextPVR can't open so it forward it to ffmpeg and it can't open it either. Perhaps VLC is skipping over it and just playing the next item in the playlist.

nopes, Video Lan is playing the corresponding item/channel which fails in NextPVR
I'm not sure to understand how NextPVR is trying to load a PHP file from this playlist, especially as this playlist contains all IPTV stream and only few of them failed
What will be the best way to share an extract of this playlist (the channels failing and 1-2 working ones)? any other logs I could provide?

I can't tell what is going on but it seems related to the referer, maybe VLC adds it.

Does this URL get TF1 working for you. It seems you may have opened a thread on this on iptv.org

Code:

#EXTINF:-1 ,TF1
http://www.callofliberty.fr/stream/TF1/manifest.m3u8|Referer=http://www.callofliberty.fr/tv/1-TF1/1-TF1.php

you can also use the format you probably use with VLC

Code:

#EXTINF:-1 ,TF1
#EXTVLCOPT:http-referrer=http://www.callofliberty.fr/tv/1-TF1/1-TF1.php
http://www.callofliberty.fr/stream/TF1/manifest.m3u8
