[QUOTE="Brownard, post: 1283473, member: 48291"] The streams should hopefully be working again, however the 2 hour delay still exists :(. Tagging [USER=98267]@doskabouter[/USER] as you look like you've done some work on the url source filter :D. The BBC iPlayer live hls streams don't actually start from the live point, it looks like they use the #EXT-X-PROGRAM-DATE-TIME tag to indicate the 'broadcast' time of the first segment, which seems to be 2 hours before the current time, i.e. the playlist starts 2 hours before the actual live point. On the iPlayer website you can skip back to the start of the currently playing programme when watching a live stream and this is obviously how that's implemented, but the source filter seems to ignore that tag and start from the beginning of the playlist, and doesn't allow you to seek forward. I had a look at the source and parsing for that tag does exist, but it doesn't seem to do anything with it. Any ideas on if this can be implemented or any workarounds? I guess ideally it would start playback from the actual live point and allow seeking backwards but that might be wishful thinking ;). I've attached an example playlist for reference. Also, I get a missing reference to AudioPostEngine in OnlineVideosPlayer.cs with a fresh checkout of the OV source, it's fixable by adding a using MediaPortal.Player.LAV, but I haven't pushed that change as I wondered if you see it too or it's something my end? In the meantime I'll hunt around and see if I can find a 'simpler' stream that doesn't have the initial 2 hour buffer. [/QUOTE]
