Try 0.17.391.
I've added an offset to the secondary and tertiary streams in Lab3.

I did another quick update to 0.17.392 because I missed a word in the settings.
That might have stopped the Kodi update getting the new version.
You shouldn't need to remove the db and xmltv file.
Old channels will stay in the database though unless you do a "Reset on Start".
That's always been there in case your xmltv file updates are just partial changes rather than a full change.
I think that is how the data came in for the original Danish TV Guide from twinther.
There is a check to see if the xmltv file date is newer than the last one before it loads the new one.
If your xmltv files are on computers in different time zones that could cause a problem although it shouldn't.

I have an m3u list from my IPTV provider that I've edited to include the channels I want to see. Unfortunately, the xmltv file they've included cannot be edited and has all 1500 channels including many I don't need. The xmltv url does upload successfully into tv guide fullscreen, but in order to edit and move the channels I want from the menu, it would take a very long time. Just wondering if there is a way to edit the channels in the backend. Is there a file I should be looking for in the userdata section?

To reduce the size of the xmltv file you could use my "xmltv Meld" addon
or use the tv_split and tv_cat command line utilities from xmltv.org.

I like TV Guide Full-screen because can do a lot more (.m3u list) than what I am used to (FTV Guide) but the option for me is to get the XML file through FTP only.....I can't make it happen with TV Guide Full-screen!!!
The xml file loads just fine from local drive but not from FTP server.
This is from the log file:
"No connection adapters were found for 'ftp://"
Anyone can help?
Thank you!

Try 0.0.393 0.17.393.
It was treating ftp as a remote url which is logical but it didn't work.
It should work as a Url or File in the Settings\Source menu.
I only tested with a simple ftp server without authentication so let me know if it doesn't work with a user/password combination.

Hello,
If I use the option "Settings \ Optional \ Channel mapping \ Import m3u" to always update the channels links would I be able to have multiple links to 1 channel?

Hi.
The channel mapping will only match one m3u channel to the xmltv channel.
You can have as many alternative streams as you like connected to the main channel.
There are a few options in Playback that control showing the alternative channels or just using them as an automatic fallback if the main stream fails.
If you want an SD channel for a main channel you can use the alternative streams or you will have to create an xmltv file with a channel that has a unique id for that channel.
It isn't the same as the way IPTV Simple Client does it.
