Research direction

Start in hypnotix.py at the before_play path around line 932, where launching an Xtream API channel raises the reported AttributeError. Reproduce the failure by launching a TV channel, then verify that the channel starts without the exception and that the resulting playback data remains valid.

Description

Hello,
Hypnotix 4.3 bug when launching a TV channel with Xtream API on Ubuntu 23.10.
Installed by http://packages.linuxmint.com/search.php?release=any&section=any&keyword=hypnotix

AttributeError: 'Channel' object has no attribute 'info'
CHANNEL: '|FR| ........' (http://..............ts)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/hypnotix/hypnotix.py", line 932, in before_play
    data = f"{channel.info}:::{channel.url}"

Solution

I fixed the problem by deleting {channel.info}.
data = f"{channel.info}:::{channel.url}"
becomes
data = f"{channel.url}"
