Hello!

I have an m3u playlist generated by dream box so I can see my tv on the pc/mac, but after a while (the time is not always the same, it can be after 1 minute or 1 hour etc.), the channel changes and goes to the next or even the next and next and next. How to fix that?

My m3u file looks like that:

Code: Select all

#EXTM3U  
#EXTINF:-1,Rai 1
http://192.168.0.2:8001/1:0:1:213F:3070:13E:820000:0:0:0:
#EXTINF:-1,Rai 2
http://192.168.0.2:8001/1:0:1:2140:3070:13E:820000:0:0:0:
#EXTINF:-1,Rai 3
http://192.168.0.2:8001/1:0:1:2141:3070:13E:820000:0:0:0:
#EXTINF:-1,Rete 4
http://192.168.0.2:8001/1:0:1:3:3DE:110:820000:0:0:0:
#EXTINF:-1,Canale 5

That sounds like a bug on the server side. VLC switches to the next channel because the connection got closed.

so what you suggest me to do?!

Originally there was this string at the beginning, but what does it means?

Code: Select all

#EXTM3U 
#EXTVLCOPT--http-reconnect=true
#EXTINF:-1,Rai 1.. etc
