test pattern

#5
I am getting the same thing, it was working fine now the test pattern. The funny thing is that I can get all of the porn channels.... my hand is starting to get sore... :)

Anyway I have reinstalled the couch potato repo and the potato tv addon. Also reset my MAC addy and reentered all the info in both the addon and the IPTV pvr addon.
Don't know what else to do besides reset my android box and reinstall everything.... pain.

If anyone has a better idea I would be most greatfull.

Thanks

There is a sequence you need to follow, to properly clear your data and do an IPTV Reset.
1st, since you are using the system wrong (testpattern), here is the link to setup potatoTV with Kodi and use the features.

http://www.mediafire.com/file/91cjof23l02b010/NFPF+Kodi17-PotatoTV+Tutorial.mp4
Download & watch the tutorial Video

After you setup PotatoTV, you won't have a guide
The guide sources in PotatoTV setup are no longer updating.
Use;

hxxps://raw.githubusercontent.com/kens13/epg/master/guide_kens.xml
*(Change hxxps to https )

* PotatoTV Users
To change the guide source URL address;
- Go to System Settings/ Add-ons/ My Add-ons/ PVR Clients/ PVR IPTV Simple Client
- Click "Disable", then click "Configure"
- Click "EPG Settings" button
- Click in the "XMLTV URL" edit window
- Change the URL to the new URL, then click "OK" to save the settings
- "DO NOT ENABLE YET"
- Go to System Settings/ PVR&LiveTV/
Guide Tab - click "Clear Data" and confirm by clicking "Yes"
General Tab - click "Clear Data" and confirm by clicking "Yes"

-->> Now shutdown Kodi, go to Papiao and do an IPTV Reset.

Restart Kodi
- Go to System Settings/ Add-ons/ My Add-ons/ PVR Clients/ PVR IPTV Simple Client
- Click "Enable"

Channels and Guide will reload

The only thing you have to do to make it work is change the Portal number. I was having the same problems a few months ago with P1 portal and change it to something else. Now is working fine. Try it and let us know.

Still have same issue, I have changed servers, change mac #'s reset I don't know how many times, still get the test pattern. I am running kodi 17.6, I can get the guide but when I pick any channel or POV it comes up test pattern..... Very #&*Y^*E$&^@#( annoying. I don't know what changed but something did because I had it up an running before.

Everything looks good in the Donation Checker: Account shows Active, Portal address is proper, MAC address is proper? Are you choosing the portal in a pulldown within Potato TV or are you adding it as a custom address within Potato TV? If as custom, what exact address are you adding? Have you tried choosing channels from Potato TV directly, not through IPTV Simple client?

Thanks for responding. I am picking the portal set up by Potato, also tried choosing from Potato TV also nothing the same thing happens. I don't know but could it be the kodi 17.6 should I try downgrading... ? I just got a new android tv box octa core so I was hoping that this box would help on me getting IPTV since the IKS is down.

That isn't a beta version, so I think it should work. What happens when you choose CBS News, a couple of channels above CNN US? It doesn't require authentication, so if the channels are truly loading, it should work. If not, there's something fundamentally wrong.
