Your 2 logs of with and without VPN are both using the UK only URLs - I cannot see any attempt to use non-UK streams.
The error is as expected Code: -------------------- [18-09-11 18:32:21.6883] Plugins::BBCiPlayer::DASH::__ANON__ (744) Failed URL: http://as-dash-uk-live.akamaized.net/pool_6/live/bbc_radio_fourlw/bbc_radio_fourlw.isml/dash/bbc_radio_fourlw-audio=320000.dash [18-09-11 18:32:21.6963] Plugins::BBCiPlayer::DASH::__ANON__ (743) Aborting stream - fatal error fetching [240106798] Status=403 Reason: Forbidden Fetch time 507 ms -------------------- and Code: -------------------- [18-09-11 11:28:27.2362] Plugins::BBCiPlayer::DASH::__ANON__ (744) Failed URL: http://as-dash-uk-live.akamaized.net/pool_6/live/bbc_radio_fourfm/bbc_radio_fourfm.isml/dash/bbc_radio_fourfm-audio=320000-240102824.m4s [18-09-11 11:28:47.0796] Plugins::BBCiPlayer::DASH::__ANON__ (743) Aborting stream - fatal error fetching [0] Status=403 Reason: Forbidden Fetch time 25 ms -------------------- It looks like the BBC can detect your VPN as a known VPN and is blocking it. The plugin is making a standard HTTP request sent over PC network interface - and BBC's CDN Akamai is rejecting it. The plugin can do nothing about this. What I cannot understand is that you say from same PC using same network interface using BBC Browser radio - you can play the DASH UK streams (i.e. R4LW TMS). I need to find a restricted broadcast over the next few days and devise a test. As a sanity check - the audio chunks are timestamped so 240102824 is for 11 September 2018 09:27:53 GMT. This chunk is logged by LMS at 18-09-11 11:28:27.2362 - are you in Central European Summer time (GMT+2) ? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=109434 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
