Hey I noticed the new fsl links from 4khdhub does not open in IINA or KSPLAyer of stremio but mpv works very well . Could this be issue of anything I noticed from last 3 update . Earlier it was very well supported .

Hi, I've unfortunately no clue. Can only say that it seems fine on Android with exoplayer and that I don't think the last releases affected it. You could try checking if you have the same issues with nuviostreams, which also returns those links. If it works there, then I have something to start comparing / debugging with

Yes I think its not web streamer /nuviostreams issue as mpv opening the links very well and its just fsl server likely to recode url on opening with

Im stremio iOS developer and this issue is not related to addon. iOS 17 and up broke URL encoding where it could not decode '[' and ']' symbol and tries to percent encode whole URL again which leads result video not playing on iOS 17, 18 and 26. @kprabhat248

Yeah but on macOS also iina does not load that whole url else mpv and native stremio works well .

Desktop stremio app does not use NSURL for handling URL. I already made a fix for this issue in stremio lite and when updated this issue will be fixed.

thx both of you, am I right in saying that it does not make sense for webstreamr to try to mangle with the URLs here and we wait for the fix in the ios app?

@webstreamr Yes. It will take few days before update is ready for public . Additionally, this is not an issue on iOS 16 and lower.
