Live Tv will not play in the recommended players (mxplayer and VLC)

none of the players i select in yatse will play my live tv channels. i downloaded mxplayer and vlc, neither will work for live tv. i even tried plex ask default player and selected plex but it just takes me into the plex app where i have to put in my pin but never plays the video.

but if i try to play VOD then it plays fine.

here are my logs
