Pluto TV-Originated Streams no longer working in other IPTV Players

[Scott8K]

Since ~ 05.26.2026, all Pluto TV-originated streams are no longer playing when used on other IPTV players, other than Pluto TV's own player. Pluto appears to detect this condition and displays an animated screen with "Are you still watching?..." message loop indicating to play on Pluto TV's player site.
Hopefully, new URLs for these channels such as 'SmithsonianChannelSelects.us' with title 'Smithsonian Selects', 'PlutoTVHistory.us' with title 'Pluto TV History', etc., etc. can be updated for these channels soon?

This corresponds to IPTV Repository Issue: #38303 recorded yesterday.

As of ~ 06.03.2026, this issue no longer occurs... Pluto-Originated Streams from prior iptv-org repository version are now working on other IPTV Players! No more "Are you watching" animation loop. Hopefully, this continues.
