Some HTTP M3U8 links (please be aware that you are testing the links over http):

HTTP M3U8 links don’t work over HTTPS due to browser security measures against mixed content. For testing or use, these links should ideally be served over the same protocol as the main website (HTTP) to ensure functionality and security.
