Internet Radio Issues [#16883]

First of all, thanks for the great software!

I have 2 issues when playing internet radio:
1. MediaMonkey cannot play some URLs end with .m3u8 (the forum doesn't allow URL). It will go through 5 links found one by one but not playing. I have tried it with other player and no problem.

2. I am using python script to launch MediaMonkey with an URL, it pops up an Error window saying: There was a problem downloading the following file(s), then the URL - Unknown Protocol. But after that it plays the URL (if playable through Open URL).

Hope this could be fixed.
Thanks!

We'll need the URLs to test. You can post them like mediamonkey .com/forum (note the extra space) and we'll fix them.

Thanks for the quick response!

The URL is
https://cbcliveradio-lh.akamaihd.net/i/ ... aster.m3u8
Please remove all spaces.

I can confirm it doesn't work: https://www.ventismedia.com/mantis/view.php?id=16883

This may not get a fix in MediaMonkey 4, and instead only get a fix in MediaMonkey 5.
