Hey, Could you guys help with a little problem. So I use channel type "LiveTV" but it keeps on trying to play the stream eventhough it is already playing, but if I use internet tv it works flawlessly. But I need XMLTV and that doesn't work with InternetTV Channel type... I think the problem is with _1" value="5400" LIVETV doesn't have that So I think my question is if it is possible to use _1" value="5400" with LIVETV or is it possible to use XMLTV with InternetTV

Hi guys, just got an amazon fire stick for xbmc on the bedroom tv. PTVL works really well, however I am having an issue with the remote mapping.

The remote only has a few buttons so no info button. I am trying map the context menu button to the info function in PTVL so I can get to the new sidebar in PTVL. But I would like to keep that button mapped to the context menu everywhere else.

I tried mapping the context button to info function under fullscreen video but no dice. Do you guys know what I should map it under in the remote.xml?

Thanks

EDIT: Further research showed that what I'm asking for is the window name or id# for the ptvl video screen. any ideas how I can find out?

Thanks

You can use internet tv with xmltv(channel type 8).You can read post 2 at the first page for configuration.
Also an example of my settings 2 with internet tv channel with xmltv,might help you

Code:

<setting id="Channel_1_type" value="8" />
    <setting id="Channel_1_1" value="ANT1" />
    <setting id="Channel_1_2" value="http://wow.ant1.gr:1935/live/smil:mavani.smil/playlist.m3u8" />
    <setting id="Channel_1_3" value="xmltv" />
    <setting id="Channel_1_4" value="" />
    <setting id="Channel_1_rulecount" value="1" />
    <setting id="Channel_1_rule_1_id" value="1" />
    <setting id="Channel_1_rule_1_opt_1" value="ANT1" />
    <setting id="Channel_1_changed" value="False" />
    <setting id="Channel_1_time" value="171619" />

Luna,

I cannot get the "only play watched" filter to work. I tried adding it both through ptvl's channel config and the pseudotv manager but I still get a lot of new items popping up on the channels.

Here is a log: http://xbmclogs.com/show.php?id=356858

Thanks

Hey, thanks for the reply but the same thing is happening. I am not loading a stream it is a plugin, the streams plays but it keeps on loading the channel over and over and over again. Your stream works though. I guess the issue is with the plugin itself.

Not sure if this will be resolved in the next release, but I am getting an error for XMLTV channels that are returning without any show data (channel exists in header, but there isnt any show data lower in the xml).

TypeError: attribute of type 'NoneType' is not callable on line 1956 of ChannelList.py

A viable solution is to replace this line:

Code:

now = datetime.datetime.strptime(now, '%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S')

with

Code:

try:
        now = datetime.datetime.strptime(now, '%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S')
            except TypeError:
            now = datetime.fromtimestamp(time.mktime(time.strptime(now, '%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S')))

This allows the Listing Unavailable placeholder to exist in the EPG.

I am having all sorts of problems today with pseudotv live. I closed pseudotv live on one of my machines that was using channel sharing. When I went to open it back up it says I don't have any channels and do I want to run the autotune, which being I had channels before so that doesn't make any sense why it would want to autotune. I have another two machines that also are using channel sharing, and they also wanted to run the autotune today. I have reinstalled psuedotv live on one of of the remote channel sharing machines and it still wants to autotune and not grab the channels from the main machine. I reinstalled pseudotv live on the main machine sharing out the channels and redid the channels (settings2.xml) and let rescan all the channels. I go to one of my remote machines and still the same thing. I have no idea if there is setting somewhere I am missing, but the channel sharing just stopped working for some reason. Also anytime I configure any of the settings(settings.xml file) on any of the remote machines let it try scanning the channels in, when I reopen the settings, they have all reverted back to default (settings.xml). I am not sure why I am having all these problems tonight, since I have been using this setup for a couple of months without any issues.

I've got a similar issue to this. A couple of weeks ago my setup lost all my channels, after I'd been using them for months and months with no problems at all. I go to the settings, rebuild my channels (there's only ten of them), and they're gone again by the time I launch PTVL and I get the same message asking me if I want to autotune. Even if I do let it autotune the channels, it just breaks again instantly, going into a loop of building the channels then asking me again if I want to autotune, without ever getting as far as actually playing anything. Bloody annoying.

I'm only using it on one machine with no channel sharing set up, and this bug seemed to come up out of nowhere - it was working one day, broken the next without me making any changes as far as I could tell. I've reinstalled the plugin once already, but I suppose my next step will have to be to uninstall the current version and try to delete all trace of it from my PC.

I guess Lunatixz would like to see a log for this issue.
Happened to me at the past but I always keep a copy of my "settings2" somewhere in the pc,so i just copy it and everything works again
Check your settings2.bak,,maybe your channels saved there.

Has anyone been having problems with Bromix's YouTube plugin? It works fine if I just watch the videos through the addon itself but doesn't play videos through PTVL anymore.

FWIW the old YouTube plug in still works fine with PTVL, but I'm spoiled by the nicer fanarts with Bromix's version.

Bromix changed some of its code, I've already made the changes to PTVL, but didn't push the update yet.

Well that solves that mystery lol. I'll just stick with the old school YouTube addon till the changes go through.

Thanks for the quick response.

Hey guys, just been messing with this for the first time today. I set up PTVL with USTVNOW, it works great but I don't get any program data. It says "TV listing unavailable, check you xmltv file". Now, I do NOT have a xmltv file but only because I ONLY intend on using this as a program guide for USTVNOW and I do not have anything other than that included in PTVL. I know in the first post it says I do NOT need an xmltv file for UTVNOW. Is this still true? Do I need to select anything in the settings to get the listing information? Note: when running the USTVNOW addon (yes, its the Lunatixz one) I DO get a listing for the shows there. They only do not show up in PTVL. Thanks in advance.

Do I need to select anything in the settings to get the listing information? - You need to not select anything , XMLTV Service by default is enabled under PVR settings... did you disable it?

If it's enabled and you still have missing data please send me a log.
