hello brothers.
the channel links that start with (rtmp://$OPT:rtmp-raw=) work perfect when I store the m3u list on the local drive but do not work if I put the same list in a web folder!!!. any idea why

here is an example

#EXTINF:-1,LOBAS TV
rtmp://$OPT:rtmp-raw=rtmp://149.11.34.78/live playpath=lobas.stream swfUrl=http://www.lasteles.com/js/mediaplayer-5.10/player.swf?191live=1 pageUrl=http://www.lasteles.com/es/directo/LOBAS-TV/video/LOBAS-TV/1159
You will probably need to add a mime type for m3u to the web server configuration to make it download as normal text. You should see exactly the same download dialog or view type when downloading your list in a web browser as when you download another URL publicized for public IPTV use.
how do i add the mime ?
any help?

what file do I edit to add the mime ?
administering a web server is outside the scope of this forum. Lets say your web server is running apache, you'd google "apache mime types"...
