Wordpress FV Flowplayer fails with certain m3u8 paths

Foliovision › Forums › FV Player › Troubleshooting › Wordpress FV Flowplayer fails with certain m3u8 paths

  • yalrighty 8 years, 10 months ago

    Certain paths to http m3u8 links fail. It seems to be with paths that have hyphens (-) or underscores (_) in them. Unfortunately I cannot change the paths. But all the other m3u8 hls streams play fine. And the streams are ok I can put them in other players or VLC of even in a kodi media center and they play without issue. I tried to replace the hyphens and underscores with url encode characters like %2F and got the same result.

    Hello yalrighty,

    could you please post some example of such URL? On our demo page https://foliovision.com/player/demos/hls-stream we have HLS stream https://d3kqo6411ge1e5.cloudfront.net/swen_lake_reloaded/index.m3u8 and it works well.

    Thanks,
    Martin

    OK two URLs that work in kodi, VLC, windows but not in FV player are

    http://veetle.com/index.php/hls/streamMbrfast/51e482fa02883_/stream.m3u8

    http://veetle.com/index.php/hls/streamMbrFast/50929e6579bc8_/stream.m3u8

    Hello yalrighty,

    it plays for me in browsers which support HLS natively – Safari on OS, iPad etc. In other browser it doesn’t play for me even if Flash is installed, as the access in http://veetle.com/crossdomain.xml is locked down to your domains only.

    Please let us know what browser you are having issues with.

    Thanks,
    Martin

    Looks like in Windows, Google Chrome, Firefox, and Opera all fail. I never use Internet Exploder/Edge browser so never thought to try it on there. It seemed to work with IE only. Is there a reason for this?

    Hello yalrighty,

    could you please post the URL where we can see the video? Does it match the domains entered in crossdomain.xml?

    Thanks,
    Martin
