IPTV on Vlc for MAC

Postby strainu » 20 Feb 2021 21:09

Hi, I have a Macbook Pro with Big Sur OS, and I wasn't to use an IPTV link in VLC, in WIndows OS is working fine, but on Mac is not working or I need to wait a long time for loading the network link. How can I fix the problem?

I can suggest to collect more information about problem

try to start vlc from terminal
add logging (change stream address with address you need in my example)

/Applications/VLC.app/Contents/MacOS/VLC vlc --extraintf=logger --verbose=2 --logfile=~/Documents/vlc_log.txt --logmode=text --file-logging udp://@233.81.116.1:1234

VLC will be started
same time the log file vlc_log.txt will appear on your Documents folder
when the video will be started (or you think it's enough to wait)
press ctrl+c or close VLC
than check log file and/or share with us
