Any information or suggestions would be welcome.
Thanks

any plans to add radio as well? I quite like to listen to BBC 6 music programs, and these currently aren't in the list - I have to exit the software entirely and open it up in a browser, which is a pain as I'm using an MCE remote for everything else and have to dig out the keyboard and mouse to achieve this

The iplayer addon seems to work fine through retrieving the current program data. But when a selection is made, the call to ffmpeg fails to retrieve the designated m3u8 file, and instead gets a "403 Forbidden" response.

I used the rejected url in a browser running through the proxy-server and again without the proxy. With the proxy it succeeds and without the proxy it gets a "not authorized" response. When I use only the url's domain name through the browser and proxy, that's when I get a "403 Forbidden" response. I tried that because the debug log shows ffmpeg as specifically identifying as "host" just the domain name from the url passed to it from the addon (although that's after an ffmpeg "GET" request with the full url.

When I route other video addons through the same proxy, they seem to run without incident.

Now I'm wondering if there is a way to set and "unset" that environment variable only when I use and leave the iplayer addon. Suggestions, if any, are welcome.
In any event, thanks for the help. It's a great addon and Kodi is terrific.
