Hi Guys. I need your help . Does anyone know why I can not in the settings (File Types) m3u and m3u8 can not activate? as soon I activate, then click Apply, it will not be saved. I think that's the problem why the SMPlayer not want to play the URL also. I need your help . Thanks for your help.

Maybe you need to change the file association in the Windows control panel.
How to do it depends on the version of Windows.

RVM

RVM I thank you for your help. I have added the SMPlayer to standard player and assigned the m3u and m3u8, but it still will not work. I'm at a loss. I can't anywhere in the network, see how I can solve the problem. Can you help me further? I am Windows 10 user. The VLC plays my URL for IPTV easily, but I have buffer problems. It is not on Internet speed, that's for sure. Let me know what screenshots I can send if you can help me. I have a lot of good reading about SMPlayer and wants to use him absolutely. So I thank you RVM!

This is what I did, on Windows 10. Right click on a m3u8 file, select "open with". Select "SMPlayer Media Player" and check the option "Always use this app to open m3u8 files". From now on all the m3u8 files are opened with SMPlayer.

Unfortunately it will not work the way with you. I tried it that way.

Have you tried to set the m3u and m3u8 extensions in Windows start :: Settings :: Default apps :: set defaults by app :: smplayer :: choose defaults for this program?

What happens when you try to open a m3u8 file? Is it opened by another application?

Have you tried to reinstall SMPlayer?

I have a m3u Paylist and the only updates itself via a URL. In Player I sat then only the URL, but I can use only the M3U file, without regular updates. No, when I read in the M3U over the SMPlayer, he does read all m3u line and that lasts forever and no TV program starts. but he does so as if he wants to start it. With VLC is not a problem, but it is buffering trouble with him. If I want to play an m3u file, it starts with smplayer because he is now the standard program. Iam smplayer installed on Linux Zorin and have the same problem. I do not really understand where the problem may lie? it frustrates slow, but I will not give up. Iam smplayer not uninstalled until now, but I'll try, but I expect the same problem. The proof is precisely that he also does the same with Linux Zorin or Linux Mint. Thank you for the effort that you want to help me friend.

So SMPlayer loads the m3u file but playback doesn't start?

Could you send the smplayer log after loading the m3u file? (menu View)
