M89SE , question. Is there a way to add more than one link option for a channel? So when you click a channel it can give you more than one option to play it with? For example I have 2 addons that provide the channel. Like Ivue works where it gives you options to play choosing what addon you prefer. Maybe just an option choose a second channel link in the guide when using the context menu/Choose stream option? Just curious. Thanks.

jdig4240 There is no built-in method to add a second stream, but it is possible to modify the source.db file in userdata/script.mtvguide and add a identical channel name with different stream source or as for M3U playlists the add-on will recognize multiple streams so you could create a playlist and add it as a source in m-TVGuide settings.
eg. filename test.m3u
xml:
#EXTM3U
#EXTINF:-1 tvg-id="channelone.uk" tvg-name="CHANNEL 1 UK" tvg-logo="my_logo" group-title="UK",CHANNEL 1
https://your_stream
#EXTINF:-1 tvg-id="channelone.uk" tvg-name="CHANNEL 1 UK" tvg-logo="my_logo" group-title="UK",CHANNEL 1
https://your_stream_2

Sweet, so in the source.db file, i would add another line in the custom_stream_url section of the .db file. Looks easy enough. So after i do this would the guide ask me to choose which stream to play I assume?
The guide sets them in order, you can then switch stream while playing using Context button.
Hi, newbie here
I installed the addon on Matrix 19.4 running on Linux Mint 19.3. I followed the installation guide and I use a valid epg link and m3u playlist. When I try to record I get the following error: "can't record due to not configured record application RTMPDUMP & FFMPEG".
I have both pvr iptv simple client and nextpvr running. During installation it said that ffmpeg was imported.
Thanks in advance for your help

No problem. I went to the settings page but the list is a lot shorter than the one shown in the wiki, and there is no "install record apps". I'm in expert mode of course. The destination folder I chose with the installation wizard, so I guess is set.

Gaulthier You need to use the scroll button, it's there trust me.

Yeah sorry, I didn't see that the left menu was also a scroll down one. That being solved I now cannot find a m3u list with matching epg for italian channels. That is I have them and they work well with PVR IPTV Simple Client but not with m-TVGuide. I tried a couple with no luck. Any pointers? Thank you for your patience.
Is there a way to get this add-on working on a Nvidia Shield runnning Kodi 19.3 and tvheadend?
With my current setup free to air TV EPG shows in the built in TVGuide. I want to add some IPTV channels from addons to the guide too.
I have created an EPG of the IPTV channels (xml) which I have linked in the add-on under EPG. When I start the add-on I get a popup saying it is doing its thing - it then says it must restart which it does. I then go to the Live TV guide and it is still the stock kodi guide with no option to add channels/streams or anything. The m-TVGuide seemingly never loads and I cannot even get to the context menu on my nvidia shield to add the channels I have added to favourites. Relevant parts of the log:
https://paste.kodi.tv/oyakidivov.kodi
Am I doing something wrong or is this add-on not compatible with tvheadend front end running on nvidia shield? Skin is Arctic Zephyr Reloaded if that matters.
Thanks
In the latest versions I no longer see the "Show only programs with streams assigned" or "Automatically assign streams" options anywhere in settings? If i cant disable these settings, i cannot load my EPG to assign channels without having a playlist file.
**Edit** So I went back versions of the guide and found that these options disappeared starting with 9.9.3. Above settings are present in 9.9.1 and below and now I can successfully load my EPG.

jdig4240 I have checked both on Kodi v18 and v19+ with the latest m-TVGuide release version 9.9.604 and the options "Show only programs with streams assigned" and "Automatically assign streams" are present on both versions.
