Cant Navigate to Channels while app loads Logo's

Post by ian_h »

I love the app but have noticed that while the m3u playlist list loads perfectly, if i then select a folder i cannot navigate within the folder to select a channel and have to wait until channel logo's have loaded.

In a big folder there could be a large number of channel and logo's and the wait can be several minutes. Once the app has stopped trying to load them I can navigate fine but every time I leave one folder and re-visit later it goes through the same process.

There doesnt seem to be any way to cache or ignore the logo loading - does anyone have any ideas?

We suppose that you face this problem because of 'https' in logos' URLs. Remove URLs starting with https from your playlist and everything should work fine.

Hi Eugene, Thanks for your reply. The issue I have is that the M3U list is provided directly by my package supplier so I dont have the option to edit it, I have contacted them and they confirmed that the Logo URL's are httpS as you suspected. Are there any other ways this could be resolved?

You could add #nologo=1 appendix for palylist URL as described here. It says the app not to load external logos.

Great thanks - my current url looks like this
http://url.com:8080/get.php?username=US ... up=default

So will changing to:
http://url.com:8080/get.php?username=US ... s#nologo=1#catchup=default

be the correct syntax? (I tried this quickly but it seemed to still try and grab the logo's)
