PlutoTV Shows Not Being Populated in EPG - RKCRLR - 2021-05-04

I installed both Locast and PlutoTV Add-ons today.  
Locast channels and shows appear in the EPG.  
However, PlutoTV channels appear in the EPG but there are no shows listed (blank lines).  
I did a channel refresh and it states it is getting the PlutoTV information.  
If I open the PlutoTV Add-on, the shows and scheduled times appear there.  

How do I get the PlutoTV data to populate the EPG?  

Thanks

Well, the Pluto.TV guide populated on it's own last night.  But then it was gone this morning but then populated again after a while.  It appears that the Pluto.TV guide data only looks a few hours ahead and then it gets old.  
Is there a way to keep the Pluto.TV guide data updated or force it to populate the EPG?

Please post in the forum section for those add-ons.

The providers of those addons override the settings of iptvsimple to load their data and are not supported natively by iptv simple.

OK, I posted in the Pluto.TV forum.  I wound up uninstalling and reinstalling the app and I think I got past the guide data not showing up.  
But I have another problem.  If I'm watching a show and IPTV Manager does a guide and channel refresh, the show I'm watching gets stopped (and sometimes I'm booted out of Kodi).  This happens with OTA recordings and while I'm watching Pluto.TV.  However, it I'm watching live TV then I don't have problems.  

Is this a problem for this forum or another forum?  (I couldn't find a IPTV Manager forum)

I don’t think there is an IPTV manger forum yet. But you would need to ask them.

You should create an issue on their GitHub.

Pluto TV is great I use the version that matt huisman has made

I'll give this a try.  Would I be able to use IPTV Merge with the Kodi Locast add-on also?  

Thanks
