IPTVEditor Catchup Issue
Hi, I use IPTVEditor to alter my playlist and for some reason catchup isn't working when i use the. Everything works perfectly as it should, except catchup on Open TV, catchup works fine on other IPTV aps on different devices. Below is the error (with my URL and details removed)
[ffmpeg] tls: IO error: Error number -138 occurredFailed to open https://(URL)/streaming/timeshift.php?username=(USERNAME)&password=(PASSWORD)&stream=216&start=2025-04-17%3A05-00&duration=210. [ytdl_hook] ERROR: [generic] Unable to download webpage: HTTPSConnectionPool(host='ts.itvx.eu', port=443): Read timed out. (read timeout=20.0) (caused by TransportError("HTTPSConnectionPool(host='ts.itvx.eu', port=443): Read timed out. (read timeout=20.0)")) [ytdl_hook] youtube-dl failed: unexpected error occurred
Any ideas? It also works fine with my real provider details, it only doesn't work with IPTVEditor details.
Happy to help however i can

If you could find what other IPTV apps use with your provider instead of this format, it could help me support more providers. Catchback is still experimental due to the lack of documentation.
I know that Tivimate on my Nvidia Shield works, and also UHF + SwipTV on iOS work with this format. More than happy to try other apps if needed.
That's nice to know, if you could try to reverse proxy those apps to know the URL format they use it would help me fix this issue for your provider

I’ve MITM the traffic for a few providers and apps about a year ago, and it has always been the same format (that you already use) for catchup streams.
