CBC streams fail to play

Closed this issue · 7 comments

I've been trying to play CBC streams but they keep failing since about 3 days ago. I can select the show I want but once it queues up it fails immediately. I'm able to play streams from other channels, like The Comedy Network, so I suspect this is due to a change on CBC's end. I thought I'd report it here in case this is something the add-on can address. Please let me know if there is any debugging info I can provide.

I don't have too much time to look into this further but hoping this helps someone fix the issue:

They've changed the manifest file. Here's an example.

The rtmp stream link is broken into separate pieces, and the ad streams now start with http, and contain '/pfadx/'

This affects CBC Doc Zone streams - used to work in the past

Pull request merged, thanks Kenny.

I confirm the CBC streams are working again after updating the add-on this
morning. Thanks Kenny for getting this working again.

Good to hear, and you're welcome. I gained a pretty good understanding of how all the CBC stuff works so hopefully I'll be able to jump in on further issues more quickly.
