Why is the old .m3u list not stremable anymore with the new x9x and upper players?

You have tuner options in those .m3u files?

Hm IIPTV playlist.

#EXTINF:0,7 - HBO Comedy
udp://@239.255.0.24:5002
#EXTINF:0,7 - HBO
udp://@239.255.0.47:5002

If you remove #EXTINF:0,7 - HBO Comedy and #EXTINF:0,7 - HBO, does it work any better? If not, what error/warning messages you get to Tools -> Messages... (set Verbosity to 2) when you try to open one of those URLs?

No doesnt work any better. It still starts playing it locally instead of streaming like in x8x.

main info: Running vlc with the default interface. Use 'cvlc' to use vlc without interface.
main info: creating httpd

How do you init the steaming?

Medaia>streaming> selecint playlist.m3u > http > profile mpeg TS > Stream / and it starts playing it locally.

Does it work better from command-line? (you can copy the :sout part to command-line)

Hm yes it does work from the command line or firedaemon now. I can see the list working and I can see it playing in netlimiter. But The stream doesnt connect on port 1290 like I set it and like it works in x.8.6i.

Command line looks like this.
"C:\Users\Sawyer\Desktop\test.m3u" ":sout=#duplicate{dst=std{access=http,mux=ts,dst=:1290}}" -I http --http-host :10090

Actually the listening port is missing for the video which is set to 1290.

If you check this out which is on x.8.6i and works just fine.


This one is on 1.0 and has no listening port for the video now but has lots of other wired IPs.

":sout=#duplicate{dst=std{access=http,mux=ts,dst=:1290}}" It seems to fully ignore the destination line?

Could you do with logger interface and paste the messages here?
So something like
