Live TV, IPTV M3U file, wrong titles

[etrax 0]

Hi

I get a M3U file from my IPTV provider. It looks like this

 

#EXTM3U
#EXTINF:-1,FI: Channel 1
http://example.com/live/channel1.ts
#EXTINF:-1,FI: Channel 2
http://example.com/live/channel2.ts
#EXTINF:-1,FI: Channel 3
http://example.com/live/channel3.ts

....and so on

 

If i use it in emby Live TV, all channels are called -1,FI: if i look under Live TV -> Channels.

If i open the playlist in VLC it looks fine.

This is the format we support:

We'll have to look at supporting that variation in the future. Thanks.

Hi thank you for your reply.

 

I downloaded that app to my andriod and imported the m3u and the channel names worked there aswell.

 

Hope the future is near

Also it seems to take the channel name to the first blankspace only, if i check the site you linked and make a m3u containing:

#EXTM3U
#EXTINF:0,Channel 1
ace://94c2fd8fb9bc8f2fc71a2cbe9d4b866f227a0201

#EXTINF:0,Channel 2
ace://94c2fd8fb9bc8f2fc71a2cbe9d4b866f227a0202

#EXTINF:0,Channel 3
ace://94c2fd8fb9bc8f2fc71a2cbe9d4b866f227a0203

 

 

All channels are called: 0,Channel

The numbers do not show up under Live TV -> Channels

 

It should be taking the name from the first comma ( , ) onwards.

I can confirm this as well. Have tried a variety of different combinations and none of them seem to be read correctly.
