If i load up the playlist.m3u8 file in tivimate, all movies play perfectly but id like to use xtream codes so I get the tv shows as well. When I load it via xtream codes all movies and shows populate but they all give me error 404. any idea why they would play loading via m3u8 but fail via xtream codes? Thanks
If you aren't using the root directory that could be the problem.
The m3u8 would list the full url like:
http: //YOUR_IP_OR_DOMAIN/some-folder/play.php?movieId=105
However, when using Xtream Codes the app may look for the video here:
http: //YOUR_IP_OR_DOMAIN/user/pass/105.m3u8
Which isn't a problem if you have the files in the root directory cause it would redirect the request to the /play.php
Now, even if the app accepts the Xtream Codes server details like:
http: //YOUR_IP_OR_DOMAIN/some-folder
It may still request the video from the root:
http: //YOUR_IP_OR_DOMAIN
Not sure if this is the problem you are having but it sounds like it. You can check your servers raw access logs to see the route its taking.
