FilmOn PVR
#1
Hi,

I'm trying to use the FilmOn PVR, It works fine but it stops after 5 minutes, then I login and again the same problem. Using Kodi 15.0

Hope someone can help me.

I'm using 15.2 now and still the same problem, there is no option in the settings for SD/HD.

Now I'm using 16.0 and finally the FilmOn pvr works with Android, Windows and Linux (Ubuntu) and there is an option for SD/HD. Smile, but the loading of the channels is very slow and the sorting of the channels is awful...

I'm running kodibuntu on and have used apt-get to install the kodi-pvr-filmon package however I'm getting no option for SD\HD and most channels either don't work or work for a few minutes. So I guess this is the fault that I have seen patches for.

Can anybody tell me how to use the patch and fix the fault, step by step??

Thanks

The filmon pvr works relatively fine under Jarvis 16 and 16.1
hd record and playback is for registered and paying subscribers only (although sometimes some channels are quietly made available to free but registered users which default to hd)
- if you are not registered with filmon and not logged in, then you will only be provided sd
some channels do freeze for a moment every few minutes: that's ok, it is buffering and will unfreeze after a moment -or hit play on the remote.
The only time you should need to exit and restart kodi in relation to filmon content is when you update your favourite channels (you can of course, use the filmon remote for that, and the remote mouse app to exit and relaunch kodi)

Hope this helps

Have you gone into the settings option of the PVR Filmon client and added your username and password of your filmon account? Free account SD, paid account HD. You need to do this + ensure you have some favourite channels in your filmon profile before using the PVR Filmon client

@MikeKL. I need help from you now. Smile
I can login ok but don't get any channels. I am a free user. Is there something else I need to do apart from not press HD?

Have not used for a while, so you logged into and then set-up your favorite channels on Filmon webpage, as only your favorite channels are pulled into PVR Filmon nothing else.
Just checked on kodi Jarvis 16.1 as still had PVR Filmon set-up and its working for me (kodi essentially refreshes channels from the Filmon server every reboot of kodi and is a little Slooooooow doing it)

I didn't add them as favourites. I was assuming they would all show up like ftv. I can see them now.

Thanks.

Great, I was very pleasantly surprised how well it works when trying it out for first time. Wink

I just need to find out how to trick it into showing the hd streams in free mode like ftv does. Wink

Please be advised that due to API changes, I believe that this PVR add on is no longer functional. I have now experienced problems - Access Denied no API. Contact Webmaster.
