- M1 previously linked to the "M1 Hiradó" YouTube channel, which only
carries news bulletins, not the actual M1 programming. Replaced with
the real M1 live feed (same mediaklikk source already used for
M2/M4 Sport/M5/Duna TV), kept M1 Hiradó as a separate YouTube-based
entry since it's non-geoblocked and covers different content.
- M1, M2, M4 Sport, M5 and Duna TV's connectmedia.hu manifests
explicitly label their audio tracks "*_HUGEO_*" (MTVA's own
Hungary-only geo variant), confirmed by inspecting the HLS output -
marked all five with Ⓖ per the README convention.
M3 investigated further (nemzetiarchivum.hu/api/m3/v3/stream): the
live feed is FairPlay DRM-protected (skd:// key scheme via
fairplay.keyos.com), so it cannot be played by a plain M3U8/HLS
client regardless of URL freshness - stays in Invalid.
The "| * | * | [x]() |" row was leftover template cruft, unique to
this file (no other list in lists/ has it) and never matched by
make_playlist.py's [>] check anyway, so it never affected the
generated playlist.
Checked each remaining Invalid channel's own homepage/domain for a
current stream, per the pattern that already worked for Hegyvidék TV
in the previous commit:
- Spektrum Home: confirmed free on MinDig TV, found a working direct
stream, moved from Invalid into Commercial.
- Hegyvidék TV: rebranded to "Buda TV" (tvbuda.hu); hegyvidektv.hu now
embeds a new working stream; restored to Regional under a clarified
name.
- Fix TV, ErdélyTV, Radio 1, DikhTv: their old domains/CDNs are dead,
but each runs an active official YouTube channel (verified via
yt-dlp, 19k-467k subscribers) using the same /live pattern already
used for M1 Hiradó/ATV/Euronews Hungarian. Restored with Ⓨ marker.
Still unresolved (own domain checked, genuinely dead or parked):
M3, Duna World / M4+ Sport, MUSICPlus, Budakalász, VTV Füzesabony,
Putnok Városi TV, Miskolc TV (miskolctv.hu is a parked/for-sale
domain), Hatoscsatorna (site unreachable). MAX4 confirmed as a real
free MinDig TV channel but no working stream found anywhere - not
added since there is no URL to reference at all.
Found via onlinestream.live's own sitemap, then resolved to the
underlying origin URLs (stream2.nmih.hu / live.tiszatv.hu) rather than
linking through the onlinestream.live redirector itself. Verified
playable with curl + ffmpeg. Budakalász resolved successfully only
once out of several attempts (matches its "not 24/7" status elsewhere),
so it stays in Invalid rather than being restored on a single hit.
Tested every stream in lists/hungary.md against a live connection
(from a Hungarian IP, so no false negatives from geo-blocking) using
curl/ffprobe/yt-dlp. See issue #1104.
- M2/Petőfi TV, M4 Sport, M5 and Duna TV were all dead but still
marked [>], meaning they were shipping as broken entries in the
live playlist despite sitting in the "Invalid" section (make_playlist.py
only checks the [>] marker, not the section). Replaced with fresh
URLs sourced from mediaklikk's own player API and moved them into
the National section where they belong.
- RTL Klub, TV2, ATV, Izaura TV, Ózdi Városi TV: replaced dead URLs
with working ones. ATV now uses its official YouTube live channel,
same pattern as M1 Hiradó.
- Fix TV, MUSICPlus, Radio 1, Budakalász, Pannon RTV, VTV Füzesabony,
Hegyvidék TV, Tisza TV, Putnok Városi TV, Miskolc TV, Hatoscsatorna:
no working source found, moved to Invalid with [x] per repo
convention (not deleted).
- Duna World / M4+ Sport: no working live feed found on mediaklikk
anymore, changed from [>] to [x].
Note: the mediaklikk-sourced connectmedia.hu URLs are session-tokenized
and will likely need refreshing again in the future - this is the same
reason the previous URLs for these channels went dead.
- Sanitize the channel number field for embedded double quotes; the
previous fix (#1124) covered group/name/logo/epg but missed
tvg-chno, leaving the same attribute-injection vector open via the
"#" column.
- Add missing "kenya" and "nigeria" entries to COUNTRY_CODES so those
channels get a tvg-country attribute in the generated playlist.
- Sync README.md and flag_order.txt with lists/: add missing flags for
chile, egypt, saudi_arabia, indonesia, kenya, nigeria in their
proper geographic groups.
- Add .gitignore for __pycache__/*.pyc.
