I did try switching the url from https to hlsplay (see the PM from
yesterday).

In the particular case that I am working on, there are a mixture of HLS
and Icecast/Shoutcast streams and it is only the HLS ones that are
causing me problems. I can (currently in my case) identify them from
strings in the URL although that is not foolproof.

However, in the ideal world my plugin should not need to know anything
about the type of protocol (etc) needed to play the stream. Knowing that
the raw URLs work when no special PH is used means that at some level
LMS can do it all itself (with assistance from genuine protocol helpers
like PlayHLS).

Maybe when HLS is natively supported in LMS this problem would
disappear.

Anyway - I'll continue with the experimentation.
