yes for now. pocpoc said he'll enable autostart in the next version.

this is a really nice step in the right direction, issues im experiencing right now, no channel logos, and i lost the channel groups using simple iptv and also proper server channel numbering.. also having a hard time getting the guide to sync with my Timezone (UTC-05:00) Eastern Time (US & Canada), guide is also confusing epg data on certain channels. whoever is doing all this work for everyone, its much appreciated over here, this is a great solution for many. very nice.

The guide data is already offset to EDT . So go to Settings >Addons> IPTV Simple pvr >Configure and for those in the eastern US/Can, do not set a timeshift, so set it to 0 and for CDT=-1 MDT=-2 PDT =-3 and so on.. after you change the timeshift . go into Settings >TV >General and YOU MUST reset the pvr database to apply the setting.

Also enable "use backend channel numbers" in Settings >TV >General (advanced) to have proper channel numbers.

Unsure if IPTV Simple Client has the logos... such a minor detail anyways IMHO.
 
hello first of thanks for all your help and advise. i got ivue guide working. but i see only half the channels dont see the latin channels like de pelicula any advise how to load them

If you want a guide for non english channels, first a source needs to be found.. this is a daunting task.. but you could check out webgrab plus, or start googling xmltv grabbers. this is no task for a novice though, so lets not discuss that here. if you figure it out we would love to see.
 
Thanks psycon, can you point me to the direction for tutorials on this ,webgrab plus so I can start learning. Is there a thread started on this topic?
Thanks again..
as i said, not for the novice user there are no tutorials, you would be treading in new waters, if you cant figure it out on your own on google its probaby over your head.

ok i got a local logo pack working under the Settings > PVR > EPG ( any big logo pack should work and it auto sets them so you dont have to do it one at a time or anything)

use backend channel numbers is not working right here, it all worked fine with with stalker.pvr, but something between the guide data or the m3u server isnt keeping the right numbers.
 
Firstly thanks to stalker iptv and the guys behind npfs server its beautiful *****

Hi everyone i have updated the addons.ini file now so any channel will autolink or prompt you to use an addon instead so there shouldnt be any need to add channels to favourites anymore now. i will be updating the guide data aswell to include some of the missing channels itv 2 3 4 sly sports 5 etc. this should be done by the morning.

If you are using the guide then simply

1.goto program addons
2. highlight ivue and press c or menu * context menu*
3. choose ivue settings
4.goto guide fixes and select delete addons file

once you then go back into guide it will recreate it VERY IMPORTANT AT THIS POINT CLOSE THE GUIDE AND GO BACK IN
now the channels should autolink and it will either play or ask which addon to use IPTV is at the far right
 
i have not tried it yet Dara ive made all this on 1.0.0.7 if stalker have changed the playmedia functions then i doubt it ill take a look and see

Yes, it will definitely have issues with the newer versions. Your changes still are valid to 1.0.7 though, and we're recommending people use that to access the ivue tv guide.

Will they eventually integrate together agian on newer versions? It seems as though the newer versions with epg and pvr are bypassing ivue altogether..

Any way you could change the channel names in your xml file so they match the names on the server so people can direct load the xmltv file to the PVR.? (even plug in a Brought to you by Ivue or something so credit goes where due.)
 
AT LAST. The PVR EPG WORKS With THIS!!!!..

Install the ivue tvguide plugin and set us as normal. Install the latest IPTV stalker client 1.0.11 and read its OP for setting up PVR

Then go configure PVR simple IPTV client > EPG Settings and tell it to use the remote address and enter the following

Code:
special://userdata/addon_data/script.tvguidetecbox/stalker.xml
You will have to launch the ivuew guide once a day i think, to update it.

You also have to restart the m3u server if you restart kodi.

Would you be kind enough to provide a link to version 1.0.11 (or 1.0.10) so I can try this please? On one box I have ver 1.0.15 and that definitely messes up the channels, grouping, channel order and epg info.

Now that I see how this is going to work I would like to use both the pvr (simple client) as well as the stalker video addon. I stopped the auto update function on Kodi so any changes won't mess things up and was thinking that I would keep watching here to find out when all the kinks get worked out. In the meantime I'm happy to have a minor epg just for movie channels so I don't have to keep looking online.

I have version 1.0.15 on one box and 1.0.13 on another.
This is GREAT STUFF! Have told several people about it and they are all impressed! :cool:
