Live TV is a very difficult thing to troubleshoot since there are so so many ways to do IPTV.
The fact that the server intervened and proxied with a direct stream transcode is by design.
If I had to guess, the audio codec of the stream is the reason for the direct play failure. HE-AAC is not as widely supported as plain AAC.
