So you're asking us to fix your car, but we are not allowed access to the engine. Things don't work that way, mate.
Either you give us full disclosure on what is going on on your LibreELEC device, or the people here go on with their lives.
No log file, no problems to fix. It's as easy as that. We have no crystal ball here, we have no heightened perceptive abilities, nor are there any tea leaf readers. So far, the only situations I've seen where multiple stream qualities are suggested, are with the add-ons that TeamKodi wants no part of.
So either give us the details we need, or find your support elsewhere. The choice is yours.
wow, this escalated quickly. since i've already read this, i just wanted to refer to the "the only situations I've seen where multiple stream qualities are suggested, are with the add-ons that TeamKodi wants no part of"
Sometimes, a video stream can have 2 video and 2 audio (or even more) streams with different resolutions. This is something i've seen in my lifetime, not too often though. One stream I remember being like that was a news channel live stream.
So what comes to my mind is - maybe, just maybe, if that's the case and he uses inputstream.adaptive with "ask quality" checked in the settings of inputstream.adaptive, he could get the message to choose the stream.
From my experience (before inputstream.adaptive was a thing), that kind of a stream will play the lowest resolution available, but if i'm in fullscreen and go to "video settings - video stream" i'll be able to choose another resolution from those available because all the video tracks from the stream will be listed there just like they are listed in audio settings when there are more than 1 audio stream available.
I haven't seen such streams in a long time, though. Those I did were usualy open streams from an official website (music channels, news channels - always live streams).
edit: also, i noticed that in his post, his example of a stream ends as .m3u
if we know m3u is just a playlist that contains a link or links to a stream, his streams might have more than one in that m3u so it's perfectly normal to be asked to choose one.
but i guess he'll have to check what the problem is himself
i'd say - download that m3u link of yours and open it up in notepad. if there are more than one streams in the m3u (and m3u is just a textual file, not a stream), see which one you'll use and use that link rather than the m3u to open it up. the m3u is not a link to the stream, m3u just tells a player where the link is and it can also be a playlist of many streams. so if they are m3u, they are not streams. radio stations will use m3u when they have more than one stream available for the listeners.
the whole thing sounds like a lack of understanding of what he's doing and that's probably where the crazyness comes from
i mean, i didn't understand many things years ago, there are so many things i still want to learn. but i also don't remember going wild on someone else because of the lack of my understanding
i only have 166 posts since 2009 because there was no need to ask before i check if the answer exists. and most of the time it did.
