Please don't "bump" your own post so soon after starting a thread. People have lives and don't always see posts straight away.

The issue you are having is that IPTV Simple Client is designed to give access to your local or personal, legal IPTV streams, not for an m3u file of 2000 channels of dubious origin.

It's by design. There is no possibility to load channels/epg somewhen else

Really? If it's designed to give access to local streams (whatever those are) then why is there a time zone offset built into IPTV Simple client?

IPTV Simple is a wonderful PVR add-on but it should really have a way to set whether it updates on startup. In my view, it would probably be better to have no updates done at all and require the user to clear and rescan channels. Another issue is if one removes channels using the system preferences, the autoscan puts them back in the guide.

So, is there a way to disable auto updates completely?

I admit that I don't know much about the workings of the add-on but I think the original poster raises a legitimate point.

Thanks,
Hish

No, it's not possible. It's by design.
