[Lantash77]

Describe the problem

Working on rewriting openFM addon as been moved from direct streams to hls. OpenFM
As figured out API and streams url quite well, stomp on bump when tried to play using ISA as no sound.

Tried on K21 - Win11 and Libreelec platform.
Installed additional codecs for Win11 didn't improve.

Possible fix

Steps to reproduce

Part of code:

def playitem():
	url = params['url']
	manifest_url = 'https://stream-cdn-1.open.fm/OFM2/ngrp:standard/playlist.m3u8?t=cf320e8569836263b7c8cb12fb04a13acaac5b44b2d70d9986d165cf788669afcae59afb28cc303d846e69c2002df620c0c2e18762b357277f0c9febaaa46f0a58262488ca372285de29334c3db8abbd5daf14ad894f16d102be92b8daaf8c92f04c37165082e28e9c233ddacfac9dec9106fa16b2b0ae8fb78c8ab9c967cab71313a17da1fd485f742c6f2210666560e3089b354d7c5fb8134af0b55bcf9f224155a4ea5e8ab6cc3d55fb9eb5ac45ed76a6d91471d98287b9a7b7af95d18d5c88ba39740b082a53bd1093e778a30335dfb5d6aceef752331c20065c19f468f1c80d2e9d4a1d1f57b3fd55b98635ecc1919f2d70c1bb8a3d38'
	print(f"openFM station name {params['name']}")
	print(f'openFM url - {url}')
	print(f'openFM playlist - {manifest_url}')
	last_part_url = manifest_url.split('/')[-1]
	manifest_parse = requests.get(manifest_url)
	playlist = re.search(r'chunklist[^\s]*', manifest_parse.text)
	chunklist = playlist.group(0)
	streamurl = manifest_url.replace(last_part_url, chunklist)	
	liz = xbmcgui.ListItem(params['name'], path=streamurl)
	
	liz.setMimeType('application/vnd.apple.mpegurl')
	liz.setContentLookup(False)
	liz.setProperty('inputstream', 'inputstream.adaptive')
	liz.setProperty("IsPlayable", "true")
	
	xbmcplugin.setResolvedUrl(int(sys.argv[1]), True, liz)

You can just use your manifestUrl. I tried putting that in a playlist and it works on Kodi 22 on Linux.

[Lantash77]

Glad you managed to play. Did pre-release addon with sending manifestUrl to ISA, sent addon for testing.
Got feedback that having same issue. As for now K21 on Win11.
Is there anything wrong with Codec Init process - Unable to Init Codec while loading file https:/...
Tried myself on linux but using K21 as wel as Libreelec on Rpi. It tits up on same place.

more likely one of many ISA improvements on kodi 22
no backports will be done
