Greetings from Greece, throughout KODI society.
I need help from a specialist ...
I have this m3u8 url: https://flive.secure2.footprint.net/fort...index.m3u8
its from the nova.gr official website (Pay-TV).
stucks after 60 seconds playtime.
can we make it play continuously?
and how;

You should contact your pay-TV provider then because that .m3u8 file consists of the same promo video of 30 seconds each at three different resolutions.
Those are not live channels but simply links to the same video.
If you use another player, VLC  or WMPC, you will get the same output.
Nothing to do with Kodi I'm afraid.

You are absolutely right my friend ... its not about kodi, but its about locked .m3u8 urls.
And this one: http://d2ktlibtvvj8vp.cloudfront.net/tra.../live.m3u8 is a locked .m3u8 url, but it doesn't stop ... playing "forever".

P.S. Can anyone from this forum, to tell me, how the companies locks the .m3u8 urls?
I know this is not legal...
