ppv works fine in pvr, they take longer to load sometimes almost so you think it times out. but they will show be patient.
i found after opening one ppv movie they seem to open faster (within the same session), could be placebo or just difference in how fast the server(s) locates the different movie files.
edit: looking at the kodi log its not the format of the VOD movies that have changed or is a problem, but the way they are fetched or have to be fetched have changed.
I have simple client and pvr stalker , they are installed and there but launch is not active. any ideas what i can do
