It's great that IPTV can now be paused. If anyone can solve the problem of .ts streams freezing after a couple of minutes then that would be even better and make the box practically perfect!
Freeze after couple minutes, I don't get that.
Try using serviceapp with extplayer3 see if that helps.
If using something like suls, try 4097 and then extplayer3 via serviceapp.
If using an old iptv.sh panel script, ditch it and try different method.

Thanks for the reply but it's a well known problem. If playing the stream on VLC you can get round the problem by using loop function. On openvix you have to change channel and go back. I have already tried all the options you suggested but no joy. By the way these are free streams I'm talking about not created bouquets using suls app & sub which when tested work ok although they are .ts streams also.
I never got round to testing this but maybe restarting network with crontimer
/sbin/ifconfig eth0 down
/sbin/ifconfig eth0 up

Is this in reply to my question? If so can you please be more specific as am not too hot on that sort of thing. Do I just post the two lines to sbin folder using notepad?
Yes it was a reply to your question, I haven't fully tested it but maybe create a .sh file i.e. restart_network.sh with those commands then add to usr/script then set a cron timer to run it every 3 minutes.
I would be careful though as the web server may see it as ddos attacking as you will be constantly reconnecting to the stream every 3 minutes so try it on something your not bothered about getting banned from.

Many thanks but my knowledge does not stretch to that I think. Also 3 minutes would be too long as the freezing is usually between 1-2 minutes I would say.
Is there not a way to detect a frozen stream and do a fake stream or channel change?
From my understanding of the different service types (from what I've read and some from what I've experienced on my solo2):-
Service type 1 = better at recovering from glitches but I've found my box has more glitches using this but I understand some boxes are better with this service type. Can record from this.
Service type 4097 = less glitches but doesn't recover very well when a glitch does happen. Can record from this.
Service type 5001+ = Never really tried these as you can't record (last time I checked).
Sometimes, it's hard to know if glitches are because of our hardware/setup, iptv provider or a mixture of both.
Thanks but it's none of the above. It depends on how you play the file. The same file on an Android app or VLC with loop enabled plays fine. Openvix can't handle it for some reason.
It's not openvix that is the problem.
It is that Enigma2 doesn't know when the connection is dropped, so it can't auto-reconnect.
That's basically what I am asking is there a way to detect and reconnect? Or detect and do a fake channel or stream change.
As Ev0 mentioned, problem isn't with openvix, it will likely be an E2 device problem affecting all images.
Remember that E2 was never conceived with iptv in mind and iptv support has been added on after.
