I run NextPVR v4.2.5 on a Windows 10 machine. I can access live TV fine using the NextPVR client on the host machine, but I can't access the live TV stream from VLC Player on another Windows 10 machine on the LAN.
I'm using this as the network stream URI in VLC:
http://192.168.1.230:8866/live?channel=1
VLC doesn't report an error, but it doesn't connect to the video stream (I just get the scrolling orange bar in the status bar at the bottom).
I have the web server option enabled on the NextPVR host machine, on port 8866.
I have explicitly allowed both the NextPVR program and port 8866 through the Windows firewall on the NextPVR host machine, and have no other AV software installed on that machine.
Any ideas?
