IPTV STALKER Authorization Failed Help

Has Iptv stalker stopped working today?

All of a sudden my Iptv stalker doesn't seem to work! I have had issues with it in Ivue but it always worked pretty much perfect when I go the standard route of going into video add on's, iptv stalker and clicking on nfps and selecting the channel to watch. But now today no matter what I do it just says "authorisation failed". Never had this before, is there something wrong with Iptv in general?

Thanks
 
The way iVue works with IPTV Stalker is different than what is expected from the IPTV Stalker alone. The server (ie. stalker middleware) collects more than just your MAC, it does have user settings to get machine specific information, like serial numbers. So if you use iVue, you are sending some form of the serial number, even if the settting for sending serial number is not checked on Stalker. For you justin, try turing on "send serial number" but leave the custom blank, and see if you can get IPTV Stalker running on its lonesome.
 
Hey Dara,

Yeah your right, I turned off the send serial number earlier when I messing around trying different things and forgot to turn it back on! Was so busy installing from repo's, add on's etc and customise menu's etc (nice that I have learned these things now lol). Anyway I turned the send serial on like you suggested and the bog standard iptv stalker works fine again thank god :)

Btw why does ivue work so bad with Iptv stalker and it this something that is being worked on? I have also noticed today since I turned the serial back on that in Ivue now gives me a new message that I haven't got before when I try using Iptv stalker for channels. It says "tv authentication failed" and unfortunately it now says this on every channel I try and use iptv stalker on in ivue - any idea why that is?
 
We want to avoid using anything except the MAC and the portal url to connect to the server, so you'll not have issues with authentication. If you try the android emulator, or PVR Stalker, you will surely have issues in connecting. There is a way to completely prevent IPTV Stalker from sending the serial number when it communicates with the server...when you use it independent of the iVue, its pretty obvious, but if do use iVue, the selection gets bypassed.

I understand what you mean and glad its working alright on stand alond iptv stalker but am a bit unclear what your suggestion is for the " itv auth failed "issue I am getting in ivue? Such as is there a way to resolve this?

Thanks

@justin, if you are ok with your situation with iVue and IPTV Stalker, you probably don't have to make any changes...you'll just have to play with that serial number going forward. For many, that's going to be good enough. If you do want to use PVR Stalker or the emulators, and to not get authentication issues, the best course maybe to start fresh with a new MAC, don't send serials or passwords to the server, and not use iVue Guide.

Take a look at the EPG section in the Kodi discussion about how to get iVue guide working with IPTV Stalker and look at the dialog between Drivium and myself at the end of the thread.
 
@Dara, No defiantly not happy with the situation between Ivue and Iptv stalker as well Iptv just really doesn't work with Ivue (just gives the errors as mentioned). The annoying part about that is I really like Iptv stalker and I really like Ivue, its just very frustrating that its not working together properly!

I tried the PVR for simply client earlier but in all honesty I found it awful so quickly got rid of it. I will look into the thread you recommend earlier and read up and what it says there. In reference to the serial, how do I do exactly? Surely there must be something wrong like a known issue between the iptv stalker working in ivue, can you confirm that is the case or not? As surely I am not the only person having this problem

Also can someone confirm what is the latest version of ivue? As just want to double check that.
Thanks again
 
Anyone able to get iVue working in conjuction with Stalker? All I get is Authorization Failed?
I have been following this thread. Even tried the VB scripts ... tried the "delete" function in iVue with no luck. Is a reWrite of iVue what is really needed?

Crap sorry ... too many windows open and replied to the wrong one lol.
See proves I was doing my reading lol

Thanks Dara

iVue works, as long as you have a clean MAC, and have the defaults set for IPTV Stalker (1.0.18), and modified it so it doesn't send a serial number. It may be that iVue may have made a change on the addons.ini that could have made those vbs scripts not correct anymore, but they worked when I tested them last week.

Go to this thread instead... we are getting off topic for the IPTV Stalker only.

Hi, need a little advice.

I have a Android mbox running Isengard 15.2. I have a donation with iptv stalker. All linked and working fine until last night. Now I get authorization fail message. I have logged into Papio and checked my details. Says my MAC is good and running. Over 300 days left.

I have iptv stalker on my phone also but never use it. I have briefly for 30 seconds or so if checking a dodgy channel out for buffering issues to work out if my box lacks power. I am still a newbie. I have never watched a programme or anything on my mobile on iptv stalker as I know it can screw up my MAC address donation but that does not seem the case here. All on the same IP address also.

Any ideas or suggestions? Thanks
 
Oh and running iptv stalker 1.0.18

I have also added some channels as favourites then used them in Ivue. Would this be causing the problem?

My send serial number is on in iptv stalker.
