IPTV66 What to use now iptv stalker plus does not work help

IPTV66 Help here!
Ok, does not seem to matter what I put in, I receive an error. I know my account works as I had the Stalker client working last night. Although I'm now locked out of iks66 site for attempting changes. PIA.

I have tried with and without http:// tried without /c/. No luck.

Are you sure that you have the right route number, no spaces?
 
Yes, no spaces.

This same number works with the other method using the Kodi Stalker client and a MAC. My Mac is removed for the purpose of M3U lists. I do see quite a number of lists in the drop down on the iks66 page.

I'm just persistent in trying to get the M3U lists working, I think these would be much more efficient.
 
Well, if you do have the Stalker Client active and trying to use the Xtream-codes addon, you may have simultaneous attempted connections, regardless if you clear the MAC or not in the route checker.
 
Thanks. I just went back in to the route checker (it let me in again!) and confirmed the MAC is still at 00:00:00:00:00:00, did a reset. Not using both, my Stalker is Disabled. Still no go.

Can you use the M3U generated URL and input this into a browser? I would have thought the site would bring back an XML file showing all the possible channels, if the authentication works properly?

That should work, if you are using the M3U you get from the route checker.
 
I agree, it should work. Instead the site just returns a blank page. Which makes me think the authentication, is not parsing the credential string properly
"username=xxx&password=xxx&type=". Athough appears to be working for others, so I'm at a loss?

If I submit simply this s1.iptv66.tv/c/ I get this, so I know the site is alive.
 
I just sent you a PM cwh060, but I'll ask it in general..

Any IPTV66 users with a 13 digit route working with the alternative add-on? Any that have only 12 digits working?

I was working fine on VLC till around 3am GMT this morning till it cutoff now 404 error on the link. Friend New sub hasn't worked since he bought it 2days ago also 404 error on his m3u link. (Tried both on Magbox with MAcs also) Both IKS 66
 
Finally got it working!

After hours of reading, researching, utter frustration and trying different configurations and different repositories the xtream add-on is finally doing it's thing. I had all the settings right for iptv66 and kept getting login errors using my routing number as the username and password. Had to ultimately change my mac and do an iptv reset and BAM it now loads.

I do have to say I am very very disappointed though in the lack of communication about the server address change, as I had to research that for a while before I finally stumbled upon the address after combing through thread after thread and with the quality of the streams in general. Channels either don't load at all, are configured incorrectly (as loading MLB TV was actually streaming SNY NY) and if they do load constantly either drop the channel completely or are buffering constantly. The audio often lags behind the video (even using Easy Advanced Settings to set buffer rates and other settings). Numerous times throughout the day the channels will work, drop for seemingly no good reason and then will not connect and do not work again for hours.

I do not know who is running the show or who is behind the magic curtain and do understand that the change implemented in the updated URL resolver that affected IPTV Stalker was out of their control, but a server address change or server upgrades (if that's what the server address change was implemented for) has been terrible and has taken a good service and turned it to manure. I have been a subscriber for almost a year now and this service has taken a severe turn for the worst in the last few months. This has unfortunately left me searching for alternate IPTV providers that provide the channels I watch and has better stream qualities. I will test them out one by one on a few month at a time basis but sadly will probably not be renewing my subscription here unless those services are worse than this.

I feel, IMHO, that the admins or owners or Mr. Wizard should consider extending everyone's subscription a few months assuming they plan on rectifying these issues and get the service back on track. But won't be holding my breath.

I do have to say though that this forum and its mods, specifically Crazed and Dara, are great and this site has been a great tool and an invaluable resource for troubleshooting various issues and learning about the ins and outs of streaming live TV however the cons are beginning to far outweigh the pros and in a nutshell someone needs to get it together as if this continues this site and its services are on its way to a dead service. I am very technical and require little assistance when it comes to technical things as I am a computer/server tech by trade but this service is pushing me in another direction.

Hope things change and get better soon.

Cheers,
Steve
 
Feel your frustration man.

Just out of curiosity, do you have a 13 digit code or a 12 digit code. Also, you mentioned changing the MAC, did you make it all zero's, or essentially remove the old MAC number and just not put anything in it's place and then save (IPTV reset)?
 
I have a 13 digit code and I completely changed my mac address, removed the old one and just re-entered a completely different one, then did an iptv reset.

Interesting.
Most of the material I have read, show to zero out the MAC address or remove it completely, then take a copy of the URL iks66 portal gives you. You seem to be saying just by changing and putting a number in there the xtream-codes iptv plugin is working? Is that correct or maybe I'm confused? I don't recall the plug in having ability to enter a MAC, but I will look again.

You see my Kodi Stalker PVR works fine, I've just not been able to get the M3U lists working.
 
I tried zeroing it out but got an error that said that mac is banned and I'm not certain whether or not it can be blank or not. No xtream does not have a mac address entry line. I did notice once I re-added my new mac address to the Stalker PVR client that xtream wouldn't open again but I prefer the PVR setup over the client as I didn't like using the IPTV Stalker add-on anyway as it didn't load the channel listings. However, xtream does load the channel listings right in the add-on so I may stop using the PVR, but I only used the Stalker add-on as a backup when the PVR client wouldn't load the EPG, so that will probably be my game plan going forward as I only have like 2 weeks left in my subscription anyway.

xstreams I believe the MAC can stay
The m3u lists, the MAC has to be blanked out.

Xstreams would also use the server URL with the /c/ part removed ( I think, but I may need to be corrected on that)

The new server URLs been posted since the start spboz . That procedure of changing the MAC is also there :)
The announcements threads are linked in my signature :)

With iptv66 if you cahnge the MAC to all 0;s it will come up as a MAC banned mesage. You have to blank it out. Or change to something else first and then Blank it out may help, if I read spboz psot correctly :)

With Rocket, the MAC changed to alls will not give a Banned message but that should not be changed to 0s either, just blanked out and the the Rocket wiill automatically revert to all 0s, where as the iptv66 MAC stays blank (empty)


I know its frustrating guys with this on-going server changes.... I am frustrated too :(
Tinie tells me just this morning that most issues now are due to the transferring of data and stuff.
Hope to see this all get better soon

Without the c is correct for xtream Crazed. I honestly did not see them posted but I started having problems a week or so after the changes were made so the thread might have been buried and I didn't click on or look at the links in your sig. Hoping things get better quick as I do or did really enjoy the service and the learning. Despite not having the Travel Channel US and maybe one or two other channels. I'm a transplanted NY'er and having channels like SNY, MSG and YES are important to me and not a lot of other IPTV providers have the selection I have gotten w/ iptv66.

I have bumped the thread to the front in the Announcment forum now spboz and also I have adjusted the thread title a bit to help distinguish it.
I also altered a little bit of info in there, regarding the MAC changing aspect of things, thnx :)
 
SPBOZ, THANK YOU! Finally after 4 days working Xtream Codes, it came down to new Mac, and a reset. And certainly no offense to the service or moderators, very anti-climatic to what I was expecting. Really hope there is a Service provided guide other than what there is on Xtream. The Stalker guide by Couch Potato has just been excellent in recent days. But if this is the future, I will continue because I believe in, and enjoy the service.

Thanks, I get it now. I would rather have the M3U lists working. My EPG, I think would work better if it can scrap the M3U channels from Simple PVR or Playlist loader.

Crazed Me and cwh060 and My Friend have exactly the same issue going on. Routes Desynced with Auth Server I did Re email support again today and sent you some more info. Looking at Kodi on wireshark with /c or without doesn't matter it gets redirected before the /GET
It seems the way it work is a Cookie gets generated that allows access if you pass Auth Server. Me no getting any Cookie or further along the Chain like sending Token or Id's
Route just Redirects to 404 or StB Blocked (same thing)
