Description of the Issue:

  • When I add a video to the channels list, it plays correctly using InputStream Adaptive.

  • However, when the same video is added to the recordings list, it does not play. Instead, FFmpeg is used, and playback fails.

  • This suggests that InputStream Adaptive is not being utilized for videos in the recordings list, even though it works fine for the same content in the channels list.

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Enabled InputStream Adaptive in settings.

  2. Add a video (e.g., an HLS stream) to the channels list with the following M3U8 definition and Add the same video to the recordings list with the same M3U8 definition:

#KODIPROP:inputstream=inputstream.adaptive
#EXTM3U
#EXTINF:-1,Example Channel // media-dir="test"
https://example.com/stream.m3u8
  1. Attempt to play the video from the recordings list. Observe that it fails, and FFmpeg is used instead of InputStream Adaptive.

Expected Behavior:

  • InputStream Adaptive should handle playback for the same video regardless of whether it is in the channels list or the recordings list.

Actual Behavior:

  • InputStream Adaptive only works for videos in the channels list. Videos in the recordings list are handled by FFmpeg and fail to play.

Additional Information:

  • Kodi Version: Kodi 21.0

  • pvr.iptvsimple Version: 21.8.3 ( Latest version 21.8.3 in the repository)

  • Operating System: WebOs

  • Debug Log: FFmpeg couldn't execute error, inputstream.adaptive execution information is not available.

Possible Causes:

  • Kodi may be treating the recordings list differently, forcing FFmpeg as the default player.

  • InputStream Adaptive may not be properly configured to handle recordings list content.

  • There could be a bug in how InputStream Adaptive interacts with the recordings list.

Request:

  • Investigate why InputStream Adaptive is not being used for videos in the recordings list.

  • Provide a solution or workaround to enable InputStream Adaptive for recordings list content.
