Have you tried to play channel from website?

Sure, from the same connection it works perfectly!

Seems to be some sort of problem with Widevine. Can you try with Windows or Mac?

I took a test, I have installed Kodi 18.9 with your addon version 1.5.15 in my pc with Windows 10 and HGTV works perfectly. I did the same procedure, i.e. installed LibreELEC 9.2.8 (Kodi 18.9) and your addon version 1.5.15 in my Raspberry Pi 3B +, with the exact same connection and it doesn't work. Also I tried to change O.S. with OSMC (Kodi 19.1) your addon version 1.5.24 in my Raspberry Pi 3B +, with the exact same connection and it doesn't work. I am starting to believe that the problem is related to Widevine CDM because other addons that use Widevine also have problems.

Yep, if you have problems also with other addons then it is problem with Widevine or Inputstream Adaptive. I'll close this and other issue.
