I have the same problem with trying to stream from a TVheadend box. 
Tvheadend has urls to stream channels using iptv, and if I paste an url 
into VLC, it plays fine. The url looks like this: 
http://192.168.1.38:9981/play/stream/channel/a559bf0b35c3e9a6c8343ccb36d4481f?title=TNNE

I made a .m3u file and scanned with mythtv setup, this is part of the file:
#EXTM3U
#EXTINF:0,1001 - GVX HD
#EXTMYTHTV:xmltvid=
http://192.168.1.38:9981/play/stream/channel/9d819a83506f04c9c2a3516952773749?title=GVX%20HD
#EXTINF:0,1002 - GVV HD
#EXTMYTHTV:xmltvid=
http://192.168.1.38:9981/play/stream/channel/be88b545c042d80dbb75729bec5da6b2?title=GVV%20HD
#EXTINF:0,1002 - GVTV HD
#EXTMYTHTV:xmltvid=
http://192.168.1.38:9981/play/stream/channel/71c155e055c9e4a3c1bf3148729ddc86?title=GVTV%20HD
#EXTINF:0,1003 - GVMV HD
#EXTMYTHTV:xmltvid=
http://192.168.1.38:9981/play/stream/channel/f10e6da30efb60536f778328558085da?title=GVMV%20HD
#EXTINF:0,1004 - RTV
#EXTMYTHTV:xmltvid=88925
http://192.168.1.38:9981/play/stream/channel/e591b56df9c8f23d014c0f2e252dc09a?title=PBJE

When I open a channel in VLC, the tvheadend log shows the connection and 
status. When I try to open a channel in Mythtv, tvheadend log doesn't 
show any activity. The Mythtv backend log shows the correct url was 
attempted, so I know the .m3u file was scanned correctly.

Mythtv will play web urls like this:
http://wgntribune-lh.akamaihd.net/i/WGNPrimary_1@304622/index_350_av-p.m3u8?
rtmp://hsn.mpl.miisolutions.net:1935/hsn-live01/_definst_/mp4:468p500kB31 playpath=mp4:468p500kB31
The urls don't always point to a m3u file, and the xmltvid is optional.

When I have tried different web iptv channels in the past, usually if 
VLC would play the url, mythtv would play it as well.
I don't know where to begin looking to diagnose this. Thanks for any advice.
