[RPi4][pvr.freebox] Problems when playing RTSP

  • Dear all, I am becoming crazy because this has been working before but randomly. This is the interesting log:

    Code

    the link obviously works on vlc on my laptop. On the other hand, I can see the channels, the guide, but not the streams :(

  • Please provide a full debug log.

    How to post a log (wiki)

    1. Enable debugging in Settings>System Settings>Logging
    2. Restart Kodi
    3. Replicate the problem
    4. Generate a log URL (do not post/upload logs to the forum)

    use "Settings > LibreELEC > System > Paste system logs" or run "pastekodi" over SSH, then post the URL link
  • Just to confirm, I am using the m3u file I can get from my Freebox with the IPTVSimple plugin and the result is the same:

    Code
    2025-09-14 18:22:31.215 T:3992     info <general>: AddOnLog: pvr.iptvsimple: pvr.iptvsimple - GetChannelStreamProperties - Live Stream URL: rtsp://mafreebox.freebox.fr/fbxtv_pub/stream?namespace=1&service=202&flavour=sd
    2025-09-14 18:22:31.216 T:1499  warning <general>: Create - unsupported protocol(rtsp) in rtsp://mafreebox.freebox.fr/fbxtv_pub/stream?flavour=sd&mimetype=application%2foctet-stream&namespace=1&service=202

    If I play from my laptop the same Live Stream URL I can see all the channels. I also tried, as suggested here https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/issu…ment-1239864984 , to add #KODIPROP:rtsp_transport=tcp but with no luck
