It's accurate:

Need to start with live tv disabled.
Download stalker master zip file, or source it from a repository (you can search this one on google or this forum for locations to get the addon), either way, get stalker video addon installed.

Now there are two addons ONLY that need to be configured. IPTV stalker (video addon), and PVR IPTV simple client (PVR client).

The PVR IPTV Simple client has absolutely nothing to do with your rocket or MAC address and is already inKodi 15.0. It is a pointer to your local host port 8899 and portal 1 and it gets you your EPG from is.gd.

So the URL in there should be http://localhost:8899/channels.html?portal=1. Note, portal = 1, stalker provides a few to be defined, just configure portal 1, leave they others alone. The next item to configure in the PVR IPTV Simple Client is the EPG. URL is http://is.gd/NFPSE. Set your time shift and save it and close the window. That's it for that. Don't touch it again afterwards...just make sure it's enabled....lol

Now, configure your IPTV Stalker video addon. This one your gonna use either portal.iptvrocket.tv (if your using a rocket), or portal.iptvprivateserver.tv (if your using NFPS) as your URL....not the 11.version. Or the 1.version.......it's portal.

Add your specific MAC address... It must begin with 00:1A:79...then add three more pair from you machines actuall MAC address (00:1A:79:xx:xx:xx). This MAC address MUST match exactly what you added to your donation. Caps don't really matter, but do it anyway. ..... That's it for that.... Your done here too. Save it and close the window....make sure it's enabled.

Now, make sure they are both "Enabled"......
Lastly, go to the "Live TV" general settings and "enable" it. You should see downloading of the EPG in the top right and in the lower right you should see something like "IPTV PVR Client loaded 722 channels" notification. The TV category should appear.

If you don't..... Then try disabling and re-enabling live TV...or, closing and re opening Kodi.... And if needbe, dig into it by clicking video....video addons... IPTV Stalker....NFPS...entertainment and try a channel... If it works your good. Close Kodi again and reopen... It should load up.

Sometimes, it will hang while loading and the TV category will not appear. You'll see this if in the top right, loading EPG it's taking forever and not progressing and/or if you don't see a notification that the PVR client loaded channels in the lower right. If this happens, you'll have to force Kodi to close. Open it and race (before the EPG begins to load in the top right) to disable live tv through the general settings tab. Then reenable it and it should load.

Hope this helps a few folks get up and running and doesn't confuse anyone... I tried to put it straight and simple...

Don't mess with anything else until you get your rig working though. These two addons are they only setting that need to be altered from a fresh install to get your tv working.
 
Guys,

I'm having issues with the EPG timing using NFPSF. The EPG guide seems to be 1 hour off. I've changed the Time Shift on IPTV Simple Client to -1 hours however that hasn't made any difference at all. Also tried changing to -2 hrs, +2 hrs, + 1hr etc along with clearing the cache but the timing still remains unchanged - i.e. changing it in the settings has no effect.

I have also tried the Daylight savings link (NFPSFD) but still the time remains exactly the same.

I'm not sure if the Time Shift setting in IPTV Simple Client is working and would appreciate it if anyone can tell me how I can shift the EPG time to -1 hour.

I live in the UK.

Thank you!
 
The time shift should be +1. It could be that the data itself is off, but the grabber is coded to pull for UTC, so I don't think it's the grabber itself. Try clearing the cache at the TV settings page then the guide page as well.

Thank you so much Dara, I set the time shift to +1 and it worked. I've tried +1 many times before but it has never worked. For some reason, with your magic blessing it's worked! Now I can finally see the correct EPG information shown instead of being an hour behind :) Thanks once again ;)

Make sure your Settings level is at Advanced or Expert. On the TV-Settings page, go to Guide tab and clear data/cache there as well.

Kodi 14.2 clears data differently than Kodi 15.0
 
I am using Stalker on Kodi 15, bot for some reason only is.gd/nfpsf works for me, Tecbox and ninja links all do not load epg at all, which one is the most complete one for nfps ?

Also I do not have EPG for the new South Asian channels 612-693 using is.gd link, do the other 2 lists have that or anyone working on them?
 
id.gd is retired. nfpsf.epg.ninja works, but you may have to clear data, and also put http:// in front. That version is our most complete version, it doesn't have the dummy to fill in the rest of the channels yet.

Currently there is no on-going work on the new India channels guide, we'll do it if there is a demand, (and of course, there is), but it may be a while because there isn't a good mc2xml source for them. Make a request in the xmltv development thread, it may take a lot of work though.

Thanks Dara , after several kodi restarts, epg loaded.

Hi everyone,
I'm getting problem with PVR Simple Client integration with IPTV Stalker (1.0.18). I set up Simple Client, it loads channels and EPG but the channels are working only for some time, when I start a channel it plays, I can watch different channels. But after a while channels won't start, there is loading icon for a while but it just doesn't play, no errors showing up. I have to close Kodi and run it again or restart M3U server to get it working but again for some time. It's verry annoying. I tried to restart M3U server, clean cache, nothing works. IPTV Stalker works perfectly fine.
