IPTV not working for this URL

[justinrh 174]

admin: Not sure if this is the best forum, so move if appropriate.

Using the IPTV plug-in, I created a stream for https://rumble.com/embed/v37yqrw/, but when I try to play it (web app or Android TV), it fails to play - no compatible streams.

If I put that URL in my browser, I see the video and it plays fine.

Why would it not play thru the IPTV stream?

Hi there, let's look at an example. Please attach the information requested in how to report a media playback issue. Thanks!

I have not attempted to access the url but ffmpeg seems to have trouble determining what it is:

That in turn is going to lead to problems when trying to play.

What does that url return?

It returns a webpage, which I did not notice before.  Try it out and see.

Looks like it is just invalid - sorry for the trouble.

You can use wireshark to get the stream links, youtube has videos on how to do this. Stirr for channels now has custom channel support, I have been playing with this last week for a bit https://github.com/robbiet480/stirr-for-channels

It's kind of fun to play with this stuff.
