Stalker Client PVR Add-on Release Thread

Not open for further replies.
Hi friends:

I had a small breakthrough, which I'll explain here, and want your intuition/take on what may remain as the issue.

So I changed the MAC address once more and, along with specifying my S/N, Device IDs, and Signature (all set up before enabling TV - thanks for the tip @data), I finally was able get my Rocket Donation working on my Android (Nexus 6) device.

Since I did not alter the KODI (nor the Stalker-PVR plugin) software on that Android device (i.e. didn't upgate anything) then, that my original and unprotected MAC stopped working could mean that original MAC was hijacked. As mentioned above, the new MAC address is working, and is now protected. The Stalker-PVR plugin on the Android device is version v0.8.4.

Okay, getting back to my Fedora-22/Linux computer. I'm using the exact same ./settings.xml file that now works on the Android device on that computer, but the computer scenario still fails. The Stalker-PVR plugin on the Fedora-22/Linux (which recall from a previous thread that I have to compile ground-up) is version v0.9.7.

Two questions:

(1) Does Stalker-PVR v0.8.4 respect, use and transmit S/N, Device IDs and Signatures? Or were those just place holders in v0.8.4 for future enabling? I need to know because I just registered this new MAC when my Android device connected and worked.

(2) Is anyone successfully connecting "securely" with Stalker-PVR version v0.9.7? (i.e. using S/N, Device IDs and Signature). If not, I may file this as a possible bug on stalker-pvr Github. I may have to clone and compile v0.8.4 and use that. That, in fact, was the previous version I was using before I downloaded the latest kodi, pulse-eight, kodi-platform and stalker-pvr stack (which, again, I do on Fedora-22/Linux to keep up with the software updates, fixes and enhancements).


Thoughts, observations and hunches on the above information appreciated.

Thanks again folks.
 
Tried changing my mac to something new... still same error message.

I'm thinking there is a bug in 0.8.4.
I just installed Jarvis on my test box same settings file (but changed the url) and it worked first time.

I still want to get this working on my main Kodi hooked up to my tv

I enabled debug mode in 15.2 and found the log reporting that my serial number was bad or missing

10:02:37 T:48336 DEBUG: AddOnLog: Stalker Client: Bad or missing Serial Number.
10:02:37 T:48336 ERROR: AddOnLog: Stalker Client: SAPI::StalkerCall: parsing failed

10:02:37 T:48336 DEBUG: CAddonCallbacksAddon - ADDON::CAddonCallbacksAddon::QueueNotification - Stalker Client - Error Message : 'Unable to load channels.'
 
SOLVED:

Thanks to everyone, particularly to @puska who had answered my other post here (I just noticed the answer today):

In summary for Stalker-PVR v0.9.7 (and possibly the entire v0.9.x series), the URL to use is:

hxxp://portal.iptvrocket.tv/stalker_portal/c/


Glad you got it working, this was going to be mu next suggestion since I saw that you were using a newer client. I know that this needs to be done in the next kodi version but I do not know what version of the client is included in it.
 
Yesterday I managed to break PVR Stalker client on 15.2 on Windows 10 while trying to fix time zone issues. After trying different time zones in the client and on the PC I started to get Unable to Load Channels. Ive uninstalled 15.2, mades sure all kodi files were removed ran a registry cleaner and reinstalled 15.2 setup the PVR Stalker Client and IPTV Stalker with the same Information and IPTV works the client dosen't. What other steps should I take to fix my booboo.

Hey this is great I get to answer my own question all that was needed to get the PVR Client to work again was to open PC Time and date settings and return to my time zone and correct local time. I originally set 1 zone to the east and set the PC clock back an hour and this worked but later caused thge PVR Stalker Client to stop connecting. I hope this helps others. Thanks

If your having EPG Guide issues with the time being off an hour you need to do this, at least for Kodi users. Now I am using the PVR Stalker that comes with Kodi.

1. Make sure the computer TZ is correct and time synced with a NTP server. If it is off to far then that will screw up your certificate data and cause connection failures on HTTPS requests.
2. Make sure the time zone is correct in the Stalker PVR Setup for your area. Use this link to get the correct TZ name: hxxps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tz_database_time_zones Replace xx with tt.
3. Change the fname in the remote XML URL to NFPS2 or NFPS4 depend on what guide you want.
4. Go to your live TV settings in Kodi and clear your EPG Data.
5. Restart Kodi.
 
Is anyone having this issue. I feel like its a problem with the servers streaming the content. It loads the freekin tv guide, just no content.

try this

c/p

This is what fixed my stalker client. You have to have to put in a 13'digit alphanumerical combo in serial number, 5 alphanumerical combo in deviceID and 5 alphanumerical combo in DeviceID2. Also in signature Imuse the last 6 numbers of donation number. Change one number on your MAC address and hit ok to save it. Then go and change your Mac on papiao.com.
Then restart KODI or clear cache and go back into KODI. This is what worked for me today.

I knew this is what it needed now to work, but I linked mine with a lesser amount of a alphanumerical combo a while back and it worked great until yesterday. So I am guessing this is what happened to you guys also.
 
I had the same problem rivera on one of my setups i change the url from h..p://11 to portal.iptv........ that fixed it


Update : problem is back it happens when you open a second kodi on another devise the new kodi authenticates
the old gets kicked out then you have to restart for it to work before i had three kodis on as long as you were not using TV channels on more than one at a time kids watch videos wife listen to music and you could change
from one to the other without authentication problem

notice how also pvr.stalker hasnt been used by leechers as IPTV stalker has... services it meant for 1 donation, 1 device anyways. your problem isnt really a problem.

Not sure how anything puts more strain on the EPG as well. the new versions of pvr.stalker cache the EPG locally and only redownload them when they get near expiry.. once or twice a day..

psycon What a fantastic job you do thank you thank you what i was thinking that you said to set epg to download every 1440 some thing
and me and every other person trying to authenticate more offen will put more pressure downloading on your fantastic EPG did i say thank you Thank you
that is alll Disappointed that though we can not have multiple kodis on at the same time with out authenticating. Kodi is open so You could
watch videos play music and then go in to tv maybe i am too open minded one TV at a Time
