Brief XMLTV Tutorial: What is XMLTV? XMLTV is a very popular XML based file format for describing TV listings. see XMLTVFormat How do I get an XMLTV File? there are several ways, I will list two possible ways: Free: If you want to build a xmltv file for free with very basic info try MC2XML or ZAP2XML Pay: If you want a more detailed TV listing try Schedules Direct I suggest you build your XMLTV file with only a few channels, and no more then 3 days data (follow the guidelines listed in the grabbers you have chosen). *If you build a XMLTV file over 2mb the plugin will take longer to load (smaller file = quicker load times; so chose wisely when building your xmltv file, you don't need info for channels you don't have nor do you need to list more then a week at a time!) XMLTV must use default encoding format "UTF-8" do not enable "ISO-8859-1" Please visit XMLTV for more info... Example XMLTV configurations that work with PseudoTV Live Code: zap2xml.exe -u [email protected] -p PASSWORD -o xmltv.xml -i icons -U -I -T -D -A -d 3 Code: mc2xml.exe -a -f -A -L -s -5 -d 72 -g ZIPCODE -U -D xmltv.dat -o xmltv.xml Bumpers, Commercials and Trailers (BCT's): If Auto is enabled for BCT's: PTVL will add one bumper and automatically fill commercials and trailers in order to stay under the "hide short clip" value. (B)umpers: Bumpers are short videos TV stations play between shows. If not auto, select your bumper folder and the amount of bumpers you would like between each show. Organize bumpers by channel name, e.g.
(C )ommercials: Commercials are any short video advertisement or promo. Options include:
(T)railers:
How to setup Multi Room Sharing: Foundation:
Channel Sharing: Channel Sharing, allows synchronization between multiple XBMC instances. Sharing works by copying a "master" setting2.xml to a "slave" instances while also syncing it's cache folder.
Video Mirroring: Unlike channel sharing "Video Mirroring" doesn't require PTVL to run on a client device. It only requires another system running XBMC (future plans include full UPNP support which will eliminate the need for a client to run XBMC). The "master" instance of PTVL acts as video server, all media played will be forwarded to it's clients. No user control (ie. EPG/Overlay) is available on the client end. It's simply a mirror of the master instance. Enable kodi's webserver, and enable control via upnp on both master and client systems. Config the clients IP, leaving the default port 9090 (not the same as Kodis webserver port) and enter Userassword information, for up to three client devices...

RE: PseudoTV Live - Set-Top box solution - GenerikS - 2015-10-22 Do you think it would be possible to add support for directv streams?

If a plugin was developed to use directv streams then yes... but that's highly unlikely for multiple reasons... USTVnow is a great alternative.... Also so are any tuners supported by Kodi PVR backends, and HDHomerun which does not require a backend.

Finally now I got artwork in all pvr windows with this command: Window(Home).Property(SkinHelper.PVR.Thumb) from the excellent "script.skin.helper.service" All artwork is cached in a local folder. I was wondering if there is a way to get these artork inside PLTV for my live channels through pvr backend. RE: PseudoTV Live - Set-Top box solution - Lunatixz - 2015-10-23 (2015-10-23, 07:41)tromy Wrote: Lunatixz, I already have code that pulls thumbs from the backend (it's been working great for me)... Rather then just steam roll past the problem. Can you post some logs over in the bugs thread, I'd like to fix it. Create a channel configuration with only your livetv, and make sure debugging is enabled.... Navigate thru the EPG, then send me that log... Thanks RE: PseudoTV Live - Set-Top box solution - snesmaster40 - 2015-10-24 Should Youtube channels or Youtube playlist channels have a lot of repeated entries in the channel m3u files?
