Please note this is not my work but the wonderful guys at the iVue TV guide and is very much a work in progress.

Obviously you need the IPTV Stalker addon as well as the iVue TV guide installed.

Links can be found by doing a search in Google.The iVue TV guide can be found by installing the following repo on your device -
Code:

iVue repo or following ths YouTube video.

Once you have it installed you need to run the iVue guide once and then close it down again as this allows it to create a database etc.

Now rather than opening it again press the C button on your keyboard or context button on the remote and select addon settings.

Now where it says xmltype change this to stalker (it might take a couple of attempts for this to work) and then go along to the guide fixes tab and select to reset the database and infact do all the fixes in that category.

Once done relaunch iVue TV Guide and it will download the schedule again but this time will have all the stalker channels in.

To connect the channel name with a stream click on the channel program and choose stream and in the addons choose the IPTV stalker addon and then scroll for the corresponding channel.

You can change the appearance of the iVue TV Guide and personally I prefer the DreamTec skin but the choice is up to you.

Again please note this is very much a wip and the guide doesn't have many logos on the stalker channels as yet but these are being added and its a step in the right direction.

Guess I am doing something wroong. After chose stream, click on add on, plugin.video.tuxbox shows up. I disabled Film On. Left arrow just cycles to favorites then
.strm file and back to addons. No stalker visible.
 
Thanks guys. Its a work in progress. We're still working on getting the logos done and making things look a little better. As mentioned, if you don't see the stalker channels under addons when choosing your stream, you'll need to do the fixes in the addon, especially the "delete addons ini" Thanks to everybody involved in making this great addon

Excellent work mate, really looking promising.

I love iVue TV guide and the tech support from the guys is second to none.

For me IPTV Stalker and iVue TV Guide is a perfect combo and looking forward to this taking shape.

Thanks. Just to be clear. iVue is not my addon. I just made the EPG and sent it to the developer. All credit to Richard from iVue. And you're right, their support is second to none!
 
Deleting the addon.ini file in Guide Fixes Ivue seems to have fixed the problem of Stalker not showing up. Thanks for your help. I probably corrupted it when I changed addon.ini to a local file.
 
that looks to be correct for a windows machine yes.. will be slightly different on different operating systems.

Im not sure the ini file is the correct file, but looking at the file, i think all we would need to do is share that file once one of us does the tedious task of linking the channels.

The problem is iVue is setup to work with many addons. So if 2 or more addons have a BBC, for example, iVue needs the user to link the preferred addon. Easy way to fix this for stalker users, just strip out everything in the addons.ini file not related to this stalker EPG. So give this a try...

Settings, Guide Fixes - Fully reset the database, close the addon.
Then overwrite the addons.ini file with this one which only points to Stalker and CanTVLive(my addon for the Canadian channels at the bottom of the EPG).

Open iVue, try a channel. It should startup with the channel from stalker. You may have to link one channel to point iVue to the right addon the first time, after that they should open automatically
