Alexa Audioplayer M3U

I want to build an Alexa Skill which streams an mp3 stream. But the Stream itself is http. But i had read, that it's possible to stream an http stream, if i create an M3U File which contains the stream-url, and host only this M3U File on my S3, to get an https url. 

    var url = "https://s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/xxx/radio.m3u";

    this.response.audioPlayerPlay('REPLACE_ALL', url, 'myMusic', null, 0);
    this.emit(':responseReady');

But it doesn't work. In cloudwatch log there is the following error:

Player error occurred: com.google.android.exoplayer.extractor.ExtractorSampleSource$UnrecognizedInputFormatException: None of the available extractors (WebmExtractor, FragmentedMp4Extractor, Mp4Extractor, Mp3Extractor, AdtsExtractor, TsExtractor, FlvExtractor, OggExtractor, PsExtractor, WavExtractor) could read the stream.", "type": "MEDIA_ERROR_INTERNAL_DEVICE_ERROR" }, "token": "myMusic" }

The MP3 Stream i wan't to use is e.g. http://mp3channels.webradio.antenne.de:80/antenne

When i host an MP3 to my S3, and enter this url in my skill, it's working fine. But even i enter this MP3-URL in my M3U file, and use the M3U-URL in my coding, it raises the same error.

Can someone give me an hint?

Kind Regards Stefan

The AudioPlayer Interface Reference states:

The audio file must be hosted at an Internet-accessible HTTPS endpoint. HTTPS is required, and the domain hosting the files must present a valid, trusted SSL certificate. Self-signed certificates cannot be used.

Your desired url is not HTTPS.
