Try to delete the epgxmltv.xml file which is located:
SYSTEM->File Manager->Profile Directory->addon_data and then you'll have to choose either pvr.stalker or pvr.iptvsimple after selecting one delete the epgxmltv.xml file restart Kodi and the guide should load without issues.

Since a few people seemed to be having trouble loading your guide I thought I would give it a try. If I load it in a browser it does seem to take a very long time to load, but it loaded up fine for me in my Simple Client PVR.

Great job on your guide, it's nice and full!

When it did finally load in a browser I noticed a few channels that need to be tweaked in your ren file:

I285.65342.schedulesdirect.org:Investigation Discovery HD
I286.60468.schedulesdirect.org:Destination America HD
IWatch.61458.schedulesdirect.org:Watch (here's another one for that channel: I245.61458.schedulesdirect.org:Watch
I565.46710.schedulesdirect.org:Hallmark Movies & Mysteries HD
I312.11221.schedulesdirect.org:Hallmark HD
I333.14873.schedulesdirect.org:IFC HD
I557.16108.schedulesdirect.org:Sundance HD

Thank you Ex, I had some issues loading guide for those specific channels that's why there is a small mess in my ren file. But will get on that. Thank you buddy.

Acid, just curious - what lineup do you use for the UK channels? I pull mine from BSkyB but the BT Sport channels are not listed.

BTW, yours is not loading for me either now (times out) although it worked fine a few days ago. It looks like server overload.


Edit: Duh, asking the question made me look again. I was pulling from BSkyB England instead of BSkyB UK.

Tack I'm using BSkyB - England (United Kingdom)

As I mentioned in another thread, there could be some server, bandwidth or simulateous download issues, but I have no way to determine that. For those not getting it to load yet, leave it configured and bide some time. I suspect the guide will eventually populate. You can try data clears and restarts, but it might just be the luck of the draw that dictates success.

I have no way of checking that, I'm using hostinger's premium account which I payed for few days ago and should be unlimited bandwidth etc.

Been trying for couple days now to bring guide up no luck,using stalker client and kodi 16.1 was using yahyabell with no problems and have tried couple dozen times to clear guide and reset as well. I have entered http://acidjesus.tk/guide.xm1. Have rebooted serval times and each time I clear guide I do a restart, also let it sit for couple days thinking it might populate on its own..anything else I could try guys please let me know...thanks

Ilan you seem to be the most masterful at it. Since I seem to see you post more than anyone here. Is there a walk thru that I can find on here that would help me out. I would like to make a guide like ***.ninja did back some time ago. An post it here. I'm just not a dev. But a little computer savy.

AcidJesus, Is there anyway of making your xml file available to download? My guide is custom and I need to tweak the xml file a bit to calibrate right. I could do it through github for Vipers And Pach. Thanks.

Quick Question regarding AcidJesus EPG. Currently using it on Simple Client, works great though a bit slow pulling streams, but my question is, every few days a good portion of the guide disappears then returns a couple days later. Is there a setting in which I may be able to correct this or is this just normal due to updating the guide. Thanks

His guide auto updates at 6pm CST every day. In Simple Client settings you can cache file to local drive under the EPG tab. That should help pick up changes. In KODI settings for Live TV you can pick number of days (maybe change to 1 day if it's slow for you) and also update interval. You can change that around. I use a local file for my guide and have days to display set to 2 and update interval set to 120 minutes, prevent updates during playback and also don't cache in local database. Works good for me. I had the same settings when I used a remote url for my guide.

You could also clear guide data every night (after 6pm CST) and be assured of getting refreshed data, in KODI settings.
