Live TV only Playing for 5 minutes then stop

[Efontaine 0]

HI,

I am new to Emby and i am premiere member. I set up the live TV using the M3u tuner with no issue but whenever I go to a channel, it takes a longtime for me see anything from the channel, and when the channel do come up it only plays for like 5 minutes and then stop. Can someone educate me on why is that happening?

 

PS I had read a couple forms online about this. seen like a lot of people are having the same issue. have any one figure out the cause of that

What happens after the 5 minutes?

 

Have you tried playing the same stream in VLC to see if it is a stream or internet stability issue?

Thanks guy's for the response
 
I had took a look at the log's it seen like my server it getting a access denial from the downstream server. question, would the downstream server be my server or the server that is streaming the channel. and i did try the M3u files in VLC is work fine with no issue. i posted the information from the log file below.

Some of these m3u streams have actual time limits in the url. Have you ensured you don't have that?

hmmm im not sure. how can i find that out?

[Luke 36997]

To answer the earlier question, it would be the server that is streaming the channel that is sending back the access denied response.
