Hi everyone,
sorry for a noob question, but I am a noob.

What am I looking for is some guide on m3u8 files structure for kodi, so I can use my channels addresses I have from my IPTV provider, name them as I want and pair them with the EPG (xmltv) I have from my university network (but where the names are different). If someone could post a link with some guide or example, that would be great! What works fine is to rename the channel in kodi, but I want to do in playlist file so I dont have to do it on every kodi I have.

For example, I have a channel I want to name NOVA HD, but kodi wont see EPG for it as in the XML file is the channel called just NOVA. What should be the m3u8 line to tell kodi: I want you to show the name NOVA HD, but EPG for this channel is in the XML file (http://televize.sh.cvut.cz/xmltv/all.xml) as:

Code:
<channel id="513.dvb.guide">
<display-name>NOVA</display-name>
</channel>

If someone could point me to the right direction, I will be grateful!

Thank,
J.
