Would be nice to have a DVBLogic sub-forum. Filmon has recently been added yet fewer overall posts....
Just saying....

I think that there are only sub-forums for backends that already have PVR client addon for Kodi in the official repository.
https://github.com/kodi-pvr
Is there an DVBLogic PVR client addon in the official repository?

same question here
why nothing for dvblink in the forum
also as of 15 alpha2
no pvr plugins are included
alpha 1 had 1.10
but after upgrading the plugin was removed
how do we go about getting it?

Perhaps someone could help if you told us your OS?

Usually doesn't hut to ask nicely, and be patient.

In my opinion it's better to post in the vendor's forum:
http://forum.dvblogic.com/viewforum.php?f=66
DVBLink is a COMMERCIAL product, and even though the XBMC/KODI client is free of charge I'd assume that most of the problems are related to the BACKEND software / system for which I have purchased a license...
In my understanding all client addons should share more or less the same code base (git master)...?

But they should...
I think KODI should only have 1 PVR-Addon with the option to configure the BACKEND (Argus, DVBViewer RS, DVBLink ...).
I assume that a lot of problems reported here in the forums are backend specific and should be kept away from XBMC/KODI...

We look forward to your all encompassing pvr client contribution on github.

Again read the http://kodi.wiki/view/PVR page.

Many developers of upstream PVR backend probably don't care if Kodi works as a client, and most of the time problems in Kodi and its PVR client can not be traced to the back to upstream PVR backends

After reading the wiki I am still not getting the idea...
The main point here is that PVR-backend providers like DVBLogic make money with their software! And they use KODI/XBMC as a/their unique selling point!
So it's not a technical requirement to have one PVR-client codebase, it's a business requirement.
As long as the client and server-API is officially maintained and defined by team KODI the vendors can not get out of their liability.
E.g. at the moment there is an issue with DVBLogic PVR-addon for ARM processors and the vendor just points to KODI (which might be technically right...).
btw... Rocker, are you a developer (of a PVR addon)?

What drugs are you on? I need to know so I can avoid them.
None of the backends I have used are commercial products. They are open source, and also free in the monetary sense.
If there is a problem with the arm version of some frontend, post the appropriate logs to the bug tracker.
If you have a problem with kodi's architecture, redesign it and submit your code.

nicki, thank you for your reply.
I have bought DVBLogic licenses, you can find more information here: http://dvblogic.com/en/software/windows-pc/
I'm trying to contact the vendor regarding this bug for months now.
http://forum.dvblogic.com/viewtopic.php?...cb6c8d6d8b
The whole system (KODI + PVR addon/backend) is unusable for Live-TV on RPI and Android/ARM boxes.
And what really makes me want to use drugs is that I have paid money (Software Licenses + Hardware: RPI, Intel NUC, Windows Server, Digital devices TV card > 1000€).
I have not reviewed the codebase, neither will I do a refactoring. Unless you pay me
