Stalker client: unable to load channels

[Mimi58]

I have an android box and follow all the instructions to download the stalker add-on but when I re-start kodi I got a message "stalker client: unable to load channels". I'm no sure what I did wrong any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Thanks for your reply, I read the thread but they talked about a PC and other devices mine is a box. I don't know if that makes a difference.

Basically the same issue. If you have root access, locate the .../Android/data/org.xbmc.kodi/files/.kodi/userdata/addon_data/pvr.stalker and modify the settings.xml for a longer timeout, 60 should work.

You may want to triple check and make sure you have the correct spelling etc, in you set up, im on a android box, with time out set at 5 and works perfectly

I checked everything and after the 4th or 5th tried it downloaded the channels, but every time I turned off and on again the box,I got the same message "unable to load channels". Has anybody the same problem?

Did you modify the settings.xml like I suggested? Your error comes up when you can't establish a connection for the channel list, so if your portal url is correct and you have a correct MAC, that would be your next step because the request to the server is not being seen.

How do I know if I have a correct MAC? I just changed the last two digits with letters between A-F.

That's fine. As long as the first six are 00:1A:79, you can change the last six to numbers and a-f. Can you please answer my question, or I'll stop helping.

I couldn't modify the settings.xml, I found it in file manager but there is not option to open or modify the file.
