ATV won't play audio IPTV

[justinrh 260]

Android TV on Shield, I have an MP3 and an OGG live stream URL (https://stream.berean-biblechurch.org/live.oga) configured in IPTV.

I click play then a spinner shows for 1 second and that's it, nothing changes, nothing plays.
I send an app log at 7:00pm CST user home.  Server log attached.
No, I did not try the standard app.

Oddly, it plays fine in the web app, but it transcodes for some reason (mp3 and ogg).  I included the FFmpeg log for reference.

Setup exactly how?

The TV app cannot play a video without a video stream so this will have to be setup as a podcast or some other audio type.

You should.  It will probably work.

I don't understand what you are saying.  I'm using the IPTV plugin - maybe that clarifies.  The only thing you can do with that is exactly put in a URL.

Can you see how the standard app compares?

That content is assumed to be a video by the app and it cannot play a video without a video stream.

Does Luke still expect it to play on the Std app?

Why would the ATV app make false assumptions and the web app not?  Can you change the ATV app to just play source and not make assumptions?

Not sure assuming a TV stream has a video stream is such a bad assumption but that's the way it is right now in the TV app.  It uses different playback interfaces for audio-only vs video and the video one does not do audio-only.

Both of us expect it will play with that app - however, it very well may play in the video player interface instead of the audio one.
