Bug#988862: kodi-inputstream-adaptive: Attempts to load incorrect stream URLs

[Nick <debian-bugs@njw.name>]

Package: kodi-inputstream-adaptive
Version: 2.6.7+ds1-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

I use the "iPlayer WWW" video addon with Kodi, which uses kodi-inputstream-adaptive to find its live stream URLs. However it fails to load the correct stream, instead trying incorrect streams URLs, which causes the stream to fail with 404s.

I reported this on the "iPlayer WWW" forum page, and the author informed me that this is due to a known bug in this version of kodi-inputstream-adaptive, and recommended at least version 2.6.13, which apparently fixes the issue. It's not clear to me exactly which bug or series of bugs in the upstream issue tracker is the issue in this case, but if I had to guess it's certainly similar to this one: https://github.com/xbmc/inputstream.adaptive/issues/439

For reference, the "iPlayer WWW" author's advice to update is here: https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=353349&pid=3038167#pid3038167

So if the version in Debian could be updated to 2.6.13 or later, that would be great.

Thanks, and let me know if I can be of any more assistance.
