Propose: shorter links?

[patrickdrd]

hello,
could it be possible to make the links shorter?
I mean xtream-editor supports a max of 300 chars in url addresses,
so some of them don't work and create problems instead

[BellezaEmporium]

Some simply can't be shortened because that's how the link works, and some can.

[patrickdrd]

yes, I understand, obviously, maybe a url shortener can be used in the first case?

[Dum4G]

Simply don't use editors that bad. If we shorten every link there would be thousands of raging people with awful IPTV players and dozens of unavailable links. Consider switching to m3u.in or a PC app for the purpose

[patrickdrd]

xtream editor is bad?
I wouldn't think so, I'm using it for some months with 5 lists and I'm absolutely happy with it,
and as you say, there are thousands of people, I can argue that there are thousands of lists as well,
and editors help in organizing, syncing/updating, etc,
so not using an editor would be bad eventually,

anyway, ok, I would be editing this list manually, but the sync/update of it would be some pain,
that's why I suggested this for discussion

[Dum4G]

m3u.in doesn't have that limitations

[patrickdrd]

m3u.in's interface is pretty bad though, not easy to move channels from a (large) group to another

@themak1985 It is better to hide comments rather than delete them to make it easier to track repeated violations of the rules.

Got it, will do @freearhey
