pip install requests

python streamtest.py

⚠️ Supported Stream URL Formats

This tool supports only direct HTTP/HTTPS streams.

✅ Supported:

• http://example.com:8080/stream/live.ts
• https://yourserver.xyz:8888/channel/1
• http://123.123.123.123:8000/live/test.ts
• 192.168.1.100:8080/stream/live.ts (will be automatically fixed to http://)

❌ Not supported:

• rtmp://...
• rtsp://...
• udp://...
• Playlist links (URLs to .m3u instead of file)
• Streams requiring session/cookies/auth via JavaScript

ℹ️ Only local .m3u files are supported, not remote playlist URLs.

If your playlist contains raw IPs (without http://), the app will try to auto-fix them by adding http://.
