[mythtv-users] IPTV HTTP Streaming

[John Corps]

Hello all,

I am having an issue when it comes to IPTV HLS streaming. I have my service
that uses an M3U playlist that is pointing to such URL like
http://iptvservice.com:7875/live/username/password/channelnum.ts but
accessing that, you are redirected to another URL like
http://1.1.1.1:7874/live/username/password/channelnum.ts?token=someverylongtokengenerated

Inside myth setup when it loads this M3U when doing channel scan, it shows
in the logs:

2017-02-25 10:22:44.078296 I
http://iptvservice.com:7875/live/username/password/channelnum.ts ->
http://1.1.1.1:7874/live/username/password/channelnum.ts?token=someverylongtokengenerated
2017-02-25 10:22:49.210823 E  IsHLSPlaylist - Open Failed: timed-out
http://iptvservice.com:7875/live/username/password/channelnum.ts

Now as a test, I created my own M3U file with just the
http://1.1.1.1:7874/live/username/password/channelnum.ts?token=someverylongtokengenerated
and Myth loads that fine as a channel and I can watch it. The problem is,
that token appears to change daily.

Is there any way to get the redirect working so I don't have to do a new
scan every day?


Thanks.
