Authorization is required to play this stream

[gmx]

I have an android M8S box, keep these messages on open load or video me saying authorization is required to play this stream. Do I need to authorise on the web link or can I just keep pressing the cancel button. Thank you very much.

You need to authorise it if you want to view the stream. It is called "pairing". It is safe to do so. If i recollect you get a number of hours in which to view the stream.

If you don't want to authorise, and there are other fast enough (and HD if the source requiring authorization isn't the ONLY HD one offered) sources, no harm in cancelling the request. I wouldn't remove those type of sources from the add-on though, as sometimes you may find these sources requiring authorization are the only decent ones.
