Only applicable when using the buffer.

@MCTyler I am having the same problem. Xteve uses indeed user-agent header when connecting to streams (after downloading m3u file) but when downloading m3u, it does not use a custom user-agent. Right now, I have downloaded a m3u list to local storage and used it but I would prefer to use m3u by URL to be always updated.

I'm not sure I understand that User-agent will be used when downloading m3u, just when streams are played VIA buffer.

[AlexDias95]

Exactly, when downloading the m3u list, some providers need user-agent to download that same list. Running streams from that list works with the custum user-agent.

Personally, I would find a different Provider if they are that picky ;)
