I was just updated to 0.5.8g and the 'Channel Type' set to directory is still putting only one video in the channel when it did the initial channel scan. I did discover an issue, under 'Tweaks' if you have the 'Media Limit Per channel' set to 'unlimited' it will scan in only one video. Once you drop the media limit to a 1000, it will scan a 1000 videos, so it seems having it set to unlimited is breaking the directory channel function. After you change it from unlimited to a 1000 (or another number) you do need to 'force channel reset on next start' to see the change happen.
Update:
it looks like it doesn't matter how many videos you set for the actual channel itself in the configuration, if the setting in Tweaks is set to a 1000 it will do up to a 1000 videos (I didn't count them to be sure, but it was quite a few in the m3u file) even though you set the channel to only 25 videos.

Hi All
I have Mediaportal as a tv server and Kodi as a front end, I installed the plugin and I allowed it to do an auto scan but the auto scan takes for ever... so far 3 hours....is it supposed to be this slow?

Is LiveTV integrated in the in-app channel manager yet? When I choose "LiveTV" as channel type and then "PVR", and then click on "browse" I cannot see any of my TV channels but only the normal media library file sources (movies, TV shows).
I read the MediaPortal tutorial linked on the first page but it is using xml file based configuration not the in-app manager.
