XMLTV EPG File?

Good tune, Crazed! Simple, clean...great early Cash.

Here's what I did and it worked first time. No odd or different ways of doing things either.

1) As I always do when changing some things I ran Raw MAINT and Cleared Cache & Purged Packages

2) PVR.Stalker: changed local to remote path an added the http://nfps.**********

3) Epg Ninja Repo - Services: DISABLED EPG Updater

4) KODI - QUIT COMMAND

5) Went into ES File Explorer and deleted the epg11.db in database folder and then also deleted "epg_xmltv.xmlepg_xmltv.xml" in Temp folder

Note: Some changed the path but I had it like was supposed to be ran by the Epg Updater. If your file is elsewhere, go delete it.

6) Started KODI back up and it loaded easily.

NOTE: I did not delete the TV29.db folder because I have too many customizations. So it's not needed to delete.


Hope this helps some especially the users who have to go inside ES File Explorer.



You can also delete these files thru the FILE MANAGER in KODI. If you need help with that ask and someone can help show you including myself.

Verify that you have selected 'xmltv only' under 'guide preference' within the pvr addon settings as if you are getting the server version you won't get the colour version of the epg. As far as the blank channels...looks like the epg hasn't been updated since the 15th, so that would explain that.

I can't see an option for XMLTV Only under Add On settings for the PVR IPTV Simple Client. I am running Kodi 16.1

PVR Stalker Guide
I started by deleting KODI in its entirety and reinstalling it. I only used PVR Stalker Client that comes with KODI, not the NFPS version . I did NOT install IPTV STalker ( Blue or the Red Plus version) You dont need to install anything as KODI comes with PVR stalker client. Once you get the EPG working, you can re-add your add-ons, back-up etc

Go to NFPS and reset IPTV. Got to Kodi – System- Setting – Addons – My Addons – PVR Clients.
Go to PVR Stalker
General tab
Set Active Portal to 1
Set timeout to 15

I followed these steps and the guide was working this past weekend but as of today I see it is no longer working. Does anyone know if epg ninja is down at the moment?

go to system settings..go to tv and where it is enabled...turn it off , clear data where it asks below...then enable TV...i sometimes have to do this...but with the directions above it is still working...

I'm having an issue with the UK channels. After 24 hours (the xmltv cache), the UK channels do not update automatically. All of the other epg data is correct other than those specific channels (#1-20, 21, etc.) Does anyone have any ideas as to how to fix this problem?

Thanks.

What do you put in Token block?
Will this guide work with windows pc? and PVR Stalker that came with Jarvis 16.1

thanks guys

[ilan]

Don't put anything in the token field. Yes, it will work with Kodi 16.1's native PVR Stalker Client on a Windows PC.

thanks ILAN for the response, I have some black areas in the guide are there anything I can do about them?
