Background:

I am trying to connect to my school's IPTV system. I can connect by using VLC player on a Windows machine. Currently I am trying to connect to IPTV with VLC on an Ubuntu machine. I keep getting this error.

Your input can't be opened:
VLC is unable to open the MRL ' http://iptv.byu.edu/player/downloadPlaylist.htm'. Check the log for details.

Worked just fine on the windows machine, same 'MRL'.

Any tips? Direct me to where I can get better help? Thanks.

  • Check the log for details it says. Did you? And can you post what it says in the log file?

  • look out for the white space in front of your MRL... I am not sure how you managed to get a Whitespace in front of your MRL, since vlc trims whitespaces in *RLs by default...
