I'm trying to play a HLS stream in WPF using Vlc.DotNet, but I keep getting 403 Forbidden error. I can however download the m3u8 file through browser and it also does play with https://www.hlsplayer.net/. I just cannot get it to work with VLC or any other media player software. Do I perhaps need to send some headers with the request? Is there any other media player library that can handle HTTP live streaming?

It seems that the stream uses cookies for authentication and VLC does not support them directly. I managed to get it to work using StreamPlayerControl library. https://github.com/jacobbo/WebEye/tree/master/StreamPlayerControl
