Playing a .m3u8 radio broadcast help

Greetings...

I am running LibreElec 9.2 and am trying to play these HD radio streams listed here

High Quality 320kbps streams for all BBC radio stations - 2 Channel - HiFi WigWam

In particular

bbc_6music.m3u8

I downloaded and transferred the m3u8 file onto LibreElec music folder since it is easier than typing in the long url

I have installed IPTV Simple Client and entered the config section. I set IPTV to look for the stream file locally rather than entering a remote URL and chose the m3u8 file.

But I cannot get anything to appear under TV or Radio to stream. The stream works fine under VLC for example. I just want a simple streamer that can load this file.

Any other suggestions ?

Thank you in Advance
