I have a server/client configuration under Windows 10 (NextPVR 3.6.6 server + Kodi 16.0 beta 3 confluence client + add-on NextPVR client 1.12.3).
Xmltv TV guide file is downloaded by NextPVR server on the kazer.org website.
Everything worked properly except TV guide genres.
In Kodi TV guide all TV programs appear with the genre "Other / Unknown" so that search genres like "films" in the guide are impossible.
I specify that :
- all genres are available in the original xmltv TV guide file
- all genres are correctly displayed in the TV guide with NextPVR client
This problem was the same under previous versions of Kodi and NextPVR.
I think there is a bug in add-on NextPVR client 1.12.4.
Can somebody help me to solve this problem ?

I don't think you can post them here. You can either post it as an attachement over at the NextPVR forums, or post it on somewhere like dropbox, google drive or one drive, and supply a link.

I've got a patch for you, but I can't post the attachement here. If you can make a thread on the NextPVR forums, I'll post the patch for you.

The problem has been solved with modifications in the new 3.6.6 version of NextPVR.
Now the genres are available in the TV guide uploaded by Kodi on NextPVR server.
However, the search module in Kodi/Add-on NextPVR/TV guide doesn't work properly. It isn't possible to select programs by genres in TV guide (for example "films" in order to program recordings)
The research module in Kodi includes selection criterias of genres, but they don't match with the genres uploaded in the guide, so that the search gives poor results. It's the same when using genres as keyword.
This feature was one of the best in Windows MCE. It would bee welcomed in Kodi.
