Links on USTVNOW expire inside a day? #19

Do these links to USTVNOW expire ? It seemsed they worked till about midnight Eastern Time, then died.

If so is there any way to automate the script on Android every hour?

Is the scrript compatible with Python 2 and 3?

Hi there, yes they expire once per 24 hours. You would need to rerun the script to get the fresh links.

Any idea how to automate this on Android? It was an elegant solution how I had it working wirth IPTV Client but seems impossible to keep it going regularly without some server elsewhere to do the processing, and that represents a security issue.

How are you importing them into android?

markosjal commented 6 years ago

Copied via USB Memory. Unfortunately where I wanted USTVNOW there is not a computer there and I see no secure method to get them to an android IPTV client over the web.

Would be best to have a Cron on Android running the python commant. Everything I see about python on android seems very convoluted and nothing seems to be script-able

I'm afraid I wouldn't know what is best for you to do. The links are valid for less than 24 hours, this is out of my control
