Hi guys,
I have a list of channels , part of which are "On demand", but for all of them I can just watch from start to end, without interact with them. So Play/Forward/Rewind are disabled in all streams tha are "on Demand", do you have same problem?
Does somebody know how to solve this problem?
Thank you

Hi all,
Same issue. I have a m3u file in an internet server, with IPTV I can watch on demand movies, but I can not pause/forward/rewind.
Any suggestion how to fix it? (With VLAN the same m3u file works perfectly)
Thanks in advance,

I'm guessing all these lists are piracy content but the thread has been active for a while so I guess nobody is that concerned.
In answer to the question you need to save the file locally and access it via Videos/Files. You might be able to add it as a source and access the remote file but I can't be bothered to really think about it too much right now as it's not something I use.

Hey.. I am have also the same question.
for now it is ok, because I have a script which generates the m3u and I open it via Video/files. But here no covers were shown.
when I one the m3u with IPTV simple client I see covers of the films.
so it would be great to have a solution that Play/Forward/etx also works in the simple client..

My script looks like that:
#!/bin/bash
cd /some_folder
wget "http://link-to-your-m3u“ -O "iptv.m3u"
egrep -A 1 „Videos_1“ iptv.m3u > iptv_Videos_1.m3u
egrep -A 1 "Videos_2“ iptv.m3u > iptv_Videos_2.m3u
cat iptv_Videos_1.m3u iptv_Videos_2.m3u > iptv_filme.m3u
Explanation:
with wget you get the m3u it will be safed as iptv.m3u
that with egrep you cut the links which have Videos_1 or Videos 2 in the #EXTINF an saves it in the Files iptv_Videos_1.m3u or iptv_Videos_2.m3u
from here you can load this files in kodi library, same way as you load filmes in kodi without setting a content (films or tvshows) for the location.
if you need to merge the files, like i did and want to load it with iptv simple client, you can merge the files with the "cat" and point the iptv simple client to that file.

Thanks for the reply. I thought it was easy but it's not within my reach! I'll wait for Kodi 18 who should have this function. Thank you
