#EXTVLCOPT directives

Hello Everybody,

i installed the Plugin, Channel in Plex appeared. I did the configuration and gave the m3u-File. But when I click the channel a Message "Chanel not Responding" appears...

The Log says:

Do you have any advice?

[Cigaras]

I can not reproduce Your issue, can You share Your playlist and plugins settings?

Settings are stored in ..\Plex Media Server\Plug-in Support\Preferences\com.plexapp.plugins.iptv.xml file.

Also what operating system are You using?

Hi,

sure...

com.plexapp.plugins.iptv_xml.txt
tvsd_m3u.txt

[Cigaras]

Your playlist has additional lines between #EXTINF and url that I've ever heard of:

#EXTM3U
#EXTINF:0,Das Erste
#EXTVLCOPT:network-caching=1000
rtsp://192.168....
#EXTINF:0,BR Fernsehen Süd
#EXTVLCOPT:network-caching=1000
rtsp://192.168....
...

Wikipedia has nothing to say about those #EXTVLCOPT lines, google wasn't of much help either, for the moment best I can suggest is to delete those lines, and I might update the plug-in to skip #EXTVLCOPT automaticaly, however those lines might be required for streams to work however I have no idea how to pass them to Plex player and I really doubt Plex would understand them anyway, so it's a good chance Your playlist wont work with Plex, sorry ☹️

Hey,

thanks for the Hint. I removed the Lines u mentioned. Playlist is still working in VLC but sill nocht working in Plex.

Do you have any other Ideas on how to get rid of the Problem?

[Cigaras]

I can't play You streems in VLC, I gues they are ment for Your network, and I can not help here any more, Plex is not very good ar playing RTSP streams either way, must be Plex players issue.

Hi,
I have the same problem and the same #EXTVLCOPT lines in my playlist
which was generated btw by a FritzWlan Repeater DVB-C just fyi
maybe it helps someone
I`ll try next with Kodi
thank you for your great plugin anyway!

[Cigaras]

Version 2.0.0 (no release yet, You can download beta.zip and rename it to IPTV.bundle) is aware of #EXTVLCOPT lines and will not break.

Hey,

Thank you for your work. But it is still not working... Here is my logfile...

I need to see Your playlist.

Hey,

Here it is:
tvsd.m3u.txt

You need to open it with Notepad++ or something better than Windows Notepad... I'm not able to attach a m3u-File

Regards

[Sidamos666]

playlist_SANI.m3u.txt
and here is mine
but I deleted the #EXTVLCOPT lines

btw that playlist works flawlessly in Kodi with IPTV Simple Client
just fyi
