POTATO TV (IPTV Stalker addon)

Works, but the categories (genres) for IPTV aren't bringing up the right channels... should be an easy fix as they are just one down. I'd like an ALL genre as well.

Replicated the bug again with a real rocket account. Seems to be an issue when the Adults are blocked, so genres after that one are wrong. When the adults are made visible, the proper channels appear. I use the "Information" genre to test which should bring up the news channels.

Thanks for the ALL genre though...works. I'm not sure if the MAC requirement will be enforced for non-STB or Stalker applications, as I can readily use my code within the m3u link, even with a MAC enabled in the checker, and I can also use xtreams-codes as well without nulling the MAC. Once NFPS is fully converted, it won't be an issue, but I do like the ability to enter a custom server, even though I have no need to use it.

wow! you must have eagle eyes

Thank you mate
I don't know why I missed that part

I simulated the process according to your description
and I think I got the culprit, then I found the solution

in the "show_tv()" function @ "addon.py"
I changed this following code:
Code:
cmd = [None, {'mode':'channel', 'cat':genres[genre][1]}]
with these ones:
Code:
cat = [id for name,id in genres if name == opt[genre]][0]
cmd = [None, {'mode':'channel', 'cat':cat}]

and I think now I get the proper result:

the new codes will be added in my next release

Great work my friend.

couch potato ..thanks so much working good....now...

Thanks couch potato. Works great for me ;)


enjoy mates and thanks
glad if the addon works for you

please report any issues / bugs if you can find one


yet vod shows movie list but will not pay video...............

here is a thread talking about the vod issue... you could participate there, so the server guy will hear us and fix the issue asap

http://iptvtalk.net/showthread.php?27326-Video-on-demand-not-working


Also ...the view options are always on Thumbnail.....I prefer List...........I can change it but it always changes back to thumbnail once I go into a submenu......

yes! I set the thumbnail for the IPTV and the fanart/thumbnail one the VOD as their default view mode

I can remove the code for you mate in my next release :)
but of course I will not do it again.. all the questions about view mode will be ignored :D
 
a new release


--------------------------------
v1.0.3 (2017/03/28)
--------------------------------


Code:
1. removing the default view mode codes

2. improving all the cache system
especially for the vod caches

3. improving the parental control for all adult contents


NOTES:

If you disable the adult content filter and you enable the password protection

All the red-light channels will be password protected
All the contents can be accessed only thru' their matched folder ('FOR ADULT')
Even the 'ALL' folder will also hide them too

The adult contents in the PVR Simple Client will be protected too

All the protected items will be marked with yellow color

And you will be asked for the password

The protection will run silently...
It won't tell you if your password is incorrect
But it will still play a (random) video instead

I loaded the latest plugin and IPTC is working fine but VOD is not I get ERROR: VOD integer argument expected, got float

Not just you, but everyone posting a bug... you need to say which server, and whether you are MAC based or just Donation based. Also, before posting, if you have an error, first try starting from defaults, as well as have completed an IPTV Reset before configuring.

sorry, server is p1.iptvprivateserver.tv I have to use MAC and Donation number, just did a reset and started from scratch but still same error.
 
weird! does anyone have the same issue too?

I've tested my addon at least with 3 devices with 2 acc. nfps: mac based + iks: donation based
everything is running smothly

btw, which type acc. do you have?

you may try to access this URL:

*sorry... wrong url*

if you're able to download the m3u file then you do have a DONATION based, otherwise it's a MAC based

you can also try to remove/delete all files from the addon's userdata directory (Kodi/userdata/addon_data/plugin.video.potatoTV)
you have to use your o/s filemanager to delete the files (not just the clear cache within the addon)

the latest addon (v1.0.4) uses different cache system with the older one

a complete log will also be perfect to help me tracing the bug

EDIT:

sorry I posted a wrong url... the prev. one is for acc info

this is for the M3U:
Code:
http://p1.iptvprivateserver.tv/get.php?username=DONATION&password=DONATION&type=m3u_plus&output=ts

I believe the account I have is MAC based, if I do the above URL, put in my username and donation number, I cannot download the file.
I deleted in the userdata folder in the addon_data folder the plugin.video.potatoTV

then did the settings menu again and it is strange if I put in the MAC address only with the p1.iptvprivateserver.tv portal, I get an error login. When I also add my donation number, the IPTV channels are working, but still get the same VOD error
