I have just tested both SVT1 and SVT2 via Tor, configured with an exit node in Sweden. Both produce audio and video for me. That would suggest there's an audio problem at your end, as I see that the svtplayer plugin in streamlink has not changed for almost 2 years now.

You might be better off using this set up anyway, because when web sites get changed and plugins are fixed accordingly, you can simply do a pip upgrade from master, otherwise you'd need to wait a lot longer to get that fix in a full release.</div><div><br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">

According to streamlink: "Streams may be geo-restricted to Sweden."<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Yes, they are.</div><div> <br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">
I have been in contact with both Telia and SVT and they both responded<br>
something similar to:<br>
"Unfortunately, there is nothing we can help with. According to our<br>
agreements on rights and retransmission, the channels can only be<br>
viewed through the platforms we offer."<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>To be expected, unfortunately.</div><div><br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">
So I guesss my best option would be to use streamlink together with a<br>
MythTV external recorder?<br>
<br>
Would a "Generic" External Recorder be enough or do I need some more<br>
sophisticated?<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I would have thought so.
