Finally some logs with new information (still not debug though)   Without profiles special://userdata and special://profile should be the same but it looks like special://profile might not be working on tvOS.

If you go to the Kodi File manager->Profile directory->addon_data  what do you see?

Martin

I thought I had debug logging turned on as well as component for PVR and EPG.   I see the pvr.iptvsimple directory as well as the config files when browsing the Profile directory.  Profile as well as userdata seem to point to the same place.

here is another log:

That is quite different from the last set of logs, not sure why so many PVR's were being checked.  In any case if you change the URL for xmltv http://292.168.50.249:8089/devices/ANY/guide/xmltv  to a valid IP does that help?

Yeah, that was a typo when I was configuring it.  I fixed it before enabling.  The PVRs are binary add-ons for iOS and TVOS so they are all installed to start with.  I have only enabled iptvsimple.  Not sure why there are pvr.vuplus errors in the log.  It's definitely not enabled.

are you using pvs.vuplus as well? if yes is that working for you? in my apple TV kodi both iptv simple client and also enigma2 client are not working.

you mean modify this kind of line ?
<default>special://userdata/addon_data/pvr.iptvsimple/providers/providerMappings.xml</default>

by this for instance

<default>/storage/.kodi/addons/pvr.iptvsimple/resources/data/providers/providerMappings.xml</default>

?

I've solved the issue by:

1. Connecting to CCWGTV through ADB over WiFi (guide)
   
2. Locating the settings.xml file and pulling it to my PC
   
3. Editing the settings.xml file to include the required local file paths
   
4. Pushing it back to my CCWGTV over ADB
   

IPTV Simple Client is working fine now (in conjunction with IPTV Manager)

What version of Kodi are you running?

Can someone try these testbuild's and see if they make a difference? In these testbuild I reverted the async connect support.

I tried this on my Apple TV and it made no difference.   I believe there may be an AppleTV specific issue.  No matter how many times I configure the add-on, it resets to default settings the next time I run it.   Maybe a problem with the migration, resetting everything every time it runs?  I even tried a known working instance-settings-1.xml from my MacBook and it still reset to defaults the next time I checked the configuration.  Note that the add-on is working on my MacBook with Kodi 20.1, iptvsimple version 20.9.1.

When you configure the add-on does it save changes correctly in instance-settings-1.xml prior to restarting?
When it get's reset does the instance-settings-1.xml file show the same values that are in settings.xml?

Yes, when reset, except for the first 2 lines (instance name and enabled).  The m3uUrl gets reset to this "<setting id="m3uUrl" default="true" />"

And yes it saves the configuration until I enable the add-on, and then it resets to defaults.

Ok, try this.

1. Configure the add-on so it's working
   
2. Remove the settings.xml file completely (obviously back it up first)
   
3. Restart and see what happens.
   

I'm fairly sure migration should not happen and the instance settings file should be left as is, hopefully.

OK.  I disabled iptvsimple, added my configuration and checked with the file manager and the configuration was saved.  I restarted Kodi, went to file manager and the configuration was still there.  I went to addons and looked at the iptvsimple configuration and it was reset to defaults (as unknown).  I never even enabled it.

And yes, I deleted settings.xml before all of this.

@AdFundum  Would you please post an exemple of the modification you made in settings.xml ?

[phunkyfish]

Can you send me a copy of the settings.xml so I can test it here?
