VLC iptv archives problem

Postby huddad » 14 Apr 2024 01:19

hi there , i did a deep search everywhere but couldnt get my answer , many iptv channels have programs archives which you can choose and watch recent movies / series etc...
you can also forward backward , and watch from any minute you want .
in android when i use iptv player app i have a option for that i can select and watch whatever played Live before , Like this

as you see recent movies list are there even if i scroll down there are tons .

and now in VLC i cant find anything like that , i just see 3 disabled options in playback, im not sure but maybe " program " or "chapter" is what im looking for ? if yes how can i enable it , and if no , tell me how can i access archives from VLC ,thank you all

The history is in the menu Media -> Open Recent Media

Program is for selecting one specific TV channel out of a transponder/multiplex. It is normally only used for broadcast (satellite, cable or terrestrial digital TV) not IPTV.

Chapter and Title is for seeking to different part of a recording, typically a DVD or BD. It makes no sense for live TV.

What you seem to have is a playlist of live IPTV streams. You need to find where the playlist of former programs is. VLC can't guess what you want to play out of thin air.
