Iphone app SRT issue

Postby SR66 » 07 Nov 2023 11:40

Hi.. trying to play an SRT stream on iPhone app (latest ver.) with direct input of stream parameters (srt://ip:port) I get error message "Playback failed" .. same thing on VLC app on Firestick.
Same stream parameters play without issue on VLC IOS on MacBook and on Haivision Play Pro app on iPhone. - any thoughts ??

thanks
S

We do not support SRT playback on iPhone or iPad for legal reasons and it is unlikely that we will be able to in the foreseeable future.

I've been through similar stuff where one thing works on one device but not on another, and it's super annoying. First things first, make sure VLC on your iPhone and Firestick is up-to-date. Sometimes, an update can fix these weird issues. Since SRT streams can be picky with networks, double-check your Wi-Fi setup. It might be something simple like a firewall setting that's messing things up.
