I need to reopen this ticket / case.

I found a bug in the tvplayer plugin

The following URL does not work.

https://tvplayer.com/uk/watch/channel5

However the following URL DOES work

https://tvplayer.com/watch/channel5

When you look at the URL on their website though it gives you https://tvplayer.com/uk/watch/channel5 so streamlink breaks.

I’ve confirmed this several times so you just need to strip out the ‘uk/’ that the website gives you and streamlink works perfectly at this point.

Thanks
