BTW, so far recording does not work for Internet streams via Demo add-on. Is it possible to add fully functional recording?

i've been working separating epg and pvr completely, so writing epg grabber add-ons will be possible in the future, but not in frodo.
i wrote this demo add-on as a quick hack originally for a proof of concept, and added a couple of features to it so it can be used by skinners now. adding features to the add-on is fine (if you provide the patches), but keep in mind that this specific add-on is primarily for skinners without dvb hardware, and must provide content without configuring anything after installing.

Found a problem with PVR? Report it on Trac, under "PVR - core components". Please attach the full debug log.

I have not tried myself but I think vdr with iptv plugin can handle h264 as well.

What is the primary function of the <channelgroups> tag in the xml file? Can we sort channels in groups for easier navigation?

indeed, i wrote that add-on for demo purposes only, because it was intended to be used as demo environment when no network connection or dv adapter was present, and i've added it to xbmc's repos later (with a couple of changes) so it can be used by skinners without hardware too, without the need to configure anything.
if you need more than this which needs to be configured before it can be used (like integrating an external epg source), then i suggest you copy the add-on, give it another name, and implement the stuff that's needed to get this working. the demo add-on should always work without any configuration and should always present data without any configuration.
