Streamlink works:
Also youtube-dl:Code:streamlink --http-header "Referer=https://easyview.eu/watch.php?stream=gold" "https://uk.easyview.eu/hls/gold.m3u8" best -o video.ts
Code:youtube-dl --referer="https://easyview.eu/watch.php?stream=gold" "https://uk.easyview.eu/hls/gold.m3u8"

I used FireFox's Devoloper tools to get the m3u8 URL (you probably get the same URL). The important part is the referer field in the header. Without that you will get the "forbidden" error.
-
Ok, Where does Streamlink download the files?
-
See attached. That's what I get in the command prompt but VLC is not popping up. How do I get VLC to pop up?
Thanks. -
The way you ran it I believe the downloaded file is C:\Users\Owner\video.ts. Or maybe in the same folder as streamlink.exe. You can play the file with vlc as it's downloading.
If you just want to view the file with VLC (no saved local file) you can use:
or with youtube-dl:Code:streamlink --http-header "Referer=https://easyview.eu/watch.php?stream=gold" "https://uk.easyview.eu/hls/gold.m3u8" best -o - | "G:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" -
Change the path to vlc.exe to match where it is on your system. Those commands stream the video directly to VLC, without saving a local copy.Code:youtube-dl --referer="https://easyview.eu/watch.php?stream=gold" "https://uk.easyview.eu/hls/gold.m3u8" -o - | "G:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" -

Thank you for the help. I am sorry to bother you but if I gave you another link can you get the streamlink code? I copied the info into the code for this and it didn't work for me. Anyway here is there link if you can help. - http://redditlivestream.live/fox-soccer-plus/
Thank you again!

It's similar to the other site, you need to supply the referer field:
Code:streamlink --http-header "Referer=https://sportsbay.org/embed/56872/1/fox-soccer-plus-live.html" "https://e7.cdn4.us/ingest666/fsplus.m3u8" best -o - | "G:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" -
You can get the referer field from your browser's developer tools. -
Thanks again for the help.

Is there a way to put
into a M3U8 playlist to make it play?Code:Fox Soccer Plus - streamlink --http-header "Referer=https://sportsbay.org/embed/56872/1/fox-soccer-plus-live.html" "https://e7.cdn4.us/ingest666/fsplus.m3u8" best -o
Thank you. -
I don't know how to include the referer field in a local playlist. I've seen places recommend M3U playlists like:
But it doesn't seem to work.Code:#EXTM3U #EXTINF:-1 Easyview Gold Live #EXTVLCOPT:http-referrer=https://easyview.eu/watch.php?stream=gold #EXTVLCOPT:http-user-agent=Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_14_5) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/76.0.3809.25 Safari/537.36 https://uk.easyview.eu/hls/gold.m3u8
-
I want to thank you again for all the help. I got Fox Soccer Plus to work in a M3U8 playlist with the referrer code as well and I want to share the code that I got to work in the M3U8 playlist.
The code that I got to work is:
Code:#EXTM3U #EXTINF:0,Fox Soccer Plus #EXTVLCOPT:http-referrer=https://sportsbay.org/embed/56872/1/fox-soccer-plus-live.html https://e7.cdn4.us/ingest666/fsplus.m3u8
Although I still could not get UK Gold to work with that same code. -

Thank you. -
The stream isn't working now but the general procedure is to start developer tools in a browser (usually F12). Go to the Network tab (1), find the m3u8 url (you might have to refresh the page and/or start playing the video to see the url) and left click on it (2). In the details pane make sure the Headers tab is selected (3). In the Request Header pane you can see the Referer field (4):

Since the stream wasn't working I just selected a random item for that image. -
Is there a way to open a geolocked m3u8 url without a VPN?
-
Sometimes youtube-dl's "--geo-bypass-country UK" switch works. Or you can use it with a proxy in the country in question, "--proxy "89.36.222.170:88". There are web sites that keep track of open proxy servers around the world.
-
Code:
#EXTM3U #EXTINF:0,Fox Soccer Plus #EXTVLCOPT:http-referrer=https://sportsbay.org/embed/56872/1/fox-soccer-plus-live.html https://e7.cdn4.us/ingest666/fsplus.m3u8
I got the code above to work in a M3U8 playlist by itself but if I add the code above to another M3U8 playlist with a lot of other M3U8 links, it does not show up in the list. Can someone help me fix this?
Thank you. -

I can get it to work in VLC media player, but I can't get it to show up on on another M3U8 playlist when I put it in there. This list - https://pastebin.com/raw/7kjv3NM8 is the list I am trying to put in on, and I got it on there now but I can't get it to show up on the list using anything but VLC. -
I can't get the Fox Soccer Plus link to work in VLC at all*. Even if it's the only item. All the other channels in your longer playlist work. Except ITV 1 which says "Programme not available on this platform."Originally Posted by iNickster
* I wonder if there's some setting in VLC that's keeping the link from working here. -

Ok, I just made this link - https://pastebin.com/raw/FwLp1UQe Fox Soccer Plus is the only item on it with the code.
Code:#EXTM3U #EXTINF:0,Fox Soccer Plus #EXTVLCOPT:http-referrer=https://sportsbay.org/embed/56872/1/fox-soccer-plus-live.html https://e7.cdn4.us/ingest666/fsplus.m3u8
See if it works for you using that link. It works for me in VLC. My problem is that when I try to add that code into a playlist that already has items in it it does not show up on the list.Last edited by iNickster; 1st Apr 2020 at 20:06.

The version of VLC player I was using was a few years old (3.0.3). I updated to 3.0.8 and the Fox Soccer Plus link is now working. Both in an m3u8 file by itself and in your longer m3u8 file.

So, would you happen to know how to add the code to a playlist with other items on it too?Originally Posted by jagabo

It's already in your long playlist from your earlier post, #20:Originally Posted by iNickster

And it played properly with VLC 3.0.8. -
I understand that it is in that playlist now. The problem is I can not add it to a playlist with more items on it. When I try to do that, it does not show up as being on the playlist at all.Originally Posted by jagabo

So you're saying the FSP link in this m3u8 file works:
But if you add more channels the FSP link stops working? I'm not having that problem.Code:#EXTM3U #EXTINF:0,--USA-- http://0.0.0.0 #EXTINF:0,Comet http://usgeowall.sinclairstoryline.com/channel/3e45c6b5354a40f787e0b2aadb0f5d6a.m3u8?tc=1&exp=1614631202&rn=2057716804&ct=c&cid=3e45c6b5354a40f787e0b2aadb0f5d6a&ad=comet&repl=aboi&ad.adUnit=%2FCOMET%2FLivestream_midroll&ad._debug=comet_vmap&ad.ad_rule=1&ad.pmad=12&ad.output=xml_vmap1&sig=b2edfb477155d2588a66e0aecdbebff5a23c90a96e55c831def9a1434a51913b #EXTINF:0,NewsMax TV http://nmxlive.akamaized.net/hls/live/529965/Live_1/index.m3u8 #EXTINF:0,WTOC http://api.new.livestream.com/accounts/11006691/events/3598237/live.m3u8 #EXTINF:0,Fox Soccer Plus #EXTVLCOPT:http-referrer=https://sportsbay.org/embed/56872/1/fox-soccer-plus-live.html https://e7.cdn4.us/ingest666/fsplus.m3u8 #EXTM3U #EXTINF:0,--UK-- http://0.0.0.0 #EXTINF:0,Sky News http://d59pscns5ugc8.cloudfront.net/cdhls/skynewsamericas/1013/live/06.m3u8 #EXTINF:0,Box Hits http://csm-e.tm.yospace.com/csm/extlive/boxplus01,boxhits-desktop.m3u8?yo.up=http%3a%2f%2fboxtv-origin-elb.cds1.yospace.com%2fuploads%2fboxhits%2f #EXTINF:0,ITV 1 http://sportportal1.akamaized.net/hls/live/702646/itvlive/ITV1PORTAL2/master_Main1200.m3u8 #EXTINF:0,ITV 1+1 https://streamonion.com/manager/uk/fo/fo_fw.m3u8?cid=1817 #EXTINF:0,ITV 2+1 https://streamonion.com/manager/uk/fo/fo_fw.m3u8?cid=1820 #EXTINF:0,ITV 3 https://streamonion.com/manager/uk/fo/fo_fw.m3u8?cid=26 #EXTINF:0,ITV 3+1 https://streamonion.com/manager/uk/fo/fo_fw.m3u8?cid=1823 #EXTINF:0,ITV 4 https://streamonion.com/manager/uk/fo/fo_fw.m3u8?cid=101 #EXTINF:0,ITV 4+1 https://streamonion.com/manager/uk/fo/fo_fw.m3u8?cid=1826 #EXTINF:0,ITVBe https://streamonion.com/manager/uk/fo/fo_fw.m3u8?cid=3211 #EXTINF:0,5 Star https://streamonion.com/manager/uk/fo/fo_fw.m3u8?cid=851 #EXTINF:0,5 USA https://streamonion.com/manager/uk/fo/fo_fw.m3u8?cid=845 #EXTINF:0,Pick TV https://streamonion.com/manager/uk/fo/fo_fw.m3u8?cid=371 #EXTINF:0,Really https://streamonion.com/manager/uk/fo/fo_fw.m3u8?cid=372 #EXTINF:0,More4 https://streamonion.com/manager/uk/fo/fo_fw.m3u8?cid=97 #EXTINF:0,Food +1 https://streamonion.com/manager/uk/fo/fo_fw.m3u8?cid=1829 #EXTINF:0,Forces TV https://edge-1192-ch-gv.filmon.com/live/3386.low.stream/playlist.m3u8?id=0ad5aac39bb13fbe08d1b32a6e701876205743719646d03e9b42d951b9c68e11a3c08fd6b6cc03db401401e8a878c35a5d9f305d242bccb91f6abd1a1a3b5d4bc3e528c6a09011325d2e242843ca972b03507494071e31f02edc5174a0fd52ac93c7936bfb51cbddd6da31e6ec898bc05bad2a3f3a0d924d488a781a18555ae077af841f42f370f8c0ff122757d5149d561d0b57416d516f #EXTINF:0,MTV Norge http://unilivemtveu-lh.akamaihd.net/i/mtvno_1@346424/index_3500_av-b.m3u8

I suspect those other apps don't respond to the #EXTVLCOPT:http-referrer=URL field. I believe it's a VLC specific option.
