I posted this info a month ago

and the Mod (Dara) has already mentioned it on the bottom of my official page

http://iptvtalk.net/showthread.php?28186-POTATO-TV-(IPTV-Stalker-addon)&p=186834&viewfull=1#post186834


Instead of answering the boring repeated same questions,
I decided to post the info as a new thread






PLEASE READ THIS !


with the new system applied, now there are 2 types of account availabe with stalker's portal

1. DONATION based :
this account will use the same donation # as both user's ID & PASSWORD to generate a direct link for the streaming

2. MAC & DONATION based :
this account will only use the donation # as the user's ID
you don't have to change your MAC to null
and the stalker portal will automaticaly generate a different PASSWORD based on the token's session,
and it requires a valid MAC to generate the session's token

for example:

the direct link for the HBO EAST:

http://USER_PORTAL/live/USER_ID/USER_PASSWORD/301.ts

your donation #: 123456ABCDEF
your portal: p1.iptvprivateserver.tv:80


if you have a DONATION based acc., the link will become:

http://p1.iptvprivateserver.tv:80/live/123456ABCDEF/123456ABCDEF/301.ts



but if you have a MAC based acc:
you need any app which can comunicate with the stalker portal to perform a handshake action
it requires a valid DONATION # and MAC
if your account is legit, the portal will generate a fresh token and also the user password (based on the token)

for example:
your new token: C1D47E54A666D0365E51A55C64BC1C7F
your new password: WHjl6e2VBJ

thus, the direct link will become:

http://p1.iptvprivateserver.tv:80/live/123456ABCDEF/WHjl6e2VBJ/301.ts

WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW:

Each generated token will always has their specific expiry time (it won't last forever.. only valid for few minutes/hours)


So, this is the feature/function performed by any app like my addon:

1. automatically detect which type of account you are using
2. generate a proper user's ID (donation #) and also a proper user's PASSWORD
(donation based: donation # ...or... MAC based: token based password)


but of course, the addon still need a liile help from you
you have to make sure that your account is VALID & LEGIT


you have to decide which type account you want to use
is it DONATION based ? or MAC based ?

if DONATION based:

you don't have to have a valid MAC (any MAC will be ignored / become nulled)

but you have to ensure, your account IS REALLY A DONATION Based !!!

by trying to browse the following URL:


http://YOUR_PORTAL/get.php?username=YOUR_DONATION&password=YOUR_DONATION&type=m3u_plus&output=ts

if the browser is able to redirect you to download an M3U playlist, thus your account is valid as a DONATION based

But...

if it fails:

you have to repeat the IPTV RESET at papiao website:

ONE THING YOU HAVE TO KNOW:

in some cases, after doing the IPTV RESET at papiao website
YOU JUST HAVE TO WAIT for several minutes/hours to get the new reset'ed account be activated


COMMON CASES

If you are sure that you've already reset your account and you have set the MAC to nul (00:00:00:00:00:00)
and weirdly...
you are not able to download a proper M3U playslist based on your donation #
or..
the playlist can be downloaded, but only few channels can be opened / watched

it means:
the stalker portal IS NOT ABLE to recognize / detect your account as a valid DONATION based account
the stalker poltar will still require a valid MAC to create a proper password... although you have nulled the MAC

THUS...
YOU JUST HAVE TO WAIT FOR SEVERAL MINUTES/HOURS to get your new account be activated


To avoid the issue:

you can keep your account as a MAC & DONATION based one
thus, you're still have your valid donation # & MAC which will be instantly detected by the stalker portal as a valid account

Couch Potato, thank you for this thorough explanation. I had to read it a few times, but my pea-brain eventually got it. :o
I definitely have the DONATION + MAC scenario. The Papiao checker portal even hints as much by saying:


Sorry but playlist option is not available for those using MAC Address authentication.
If you want to use the playlist instead of the MAC Address then make click on "Change IPTV MAC"
and leave it in blank.

I want to keep the DONATION + MAC scenario anyway because those settings in my PVR Stalker Client are stable and working fine with that.

But, sadly, as I posted/asked Here (http://iptvtalk.net/showthread.php?30139-Authentication-Failed-MAC&p=212621&viewfull=1#post212621), I'm having a devil of a time getting past the Authentication Failed 'mac' error when configuring the PotatoTV client (which I was meticulous about configuring). :(
