[EDIT] Yes  it will open 2 connections. You might be able to watch the recording from the Recordings folder at the same time but that might cause the recording to stop if your device gets overloaded.

I couldn't guarantee only opening one connection at once so I'm not going to even try adding it to the addon.

If your provider doesn't do its own connection limiting on its server and leaves it up to you, then it is time to get a better provider.

You can also use any of the other Kodi addons that provide TV channels, either in the official repo or elsewhere.
Use the plugin:// links that you get when you add a link to Kodi Favourites (without the PlayMedia command) in your m3u.

 Hi. Try version 0.0.108.
There was a bug that got introduced with the recent changes to handle formatting in channel names.

Hi,

is it possible to set timer with a remote like offical kodi app or is it the same problem because of no binary installation?

 Hi. It is theoretically possible.
You can do normal program recording via the default Kodi web interface.
Doing a timed recording isn't possible that way without making a custom web interface.
If you or anyone else wants to do it you can send an rpc request to the record_once_time command.

If you really want to use a remote the easiest solution is to use the "xmltv Meld" addon to create dummy channels with dummy programs.
You can set the length of each program and the time of day starting offset in the settings.

However probably the best solution is to use tvheadend.
It's remote web interface is very comprehensive.
It even comes pre-installed as part of LibreELEC.

Now its working. I have a good provider and 6 lines. But now it works.

Hi, I can't get it to work. I did have it all working but just seems to have stopped. When I look at all groups there is nothing showing yet epg shows all channels.

 That sounds like a problem with your m3u.
Are there any errors in kodi.log?
Is the contents of your m3u correct? It gets copied to:
"userdata\addon_data\plugin.video.iptv.recorder\channels1.m3u"
Do the tvg-id attributes in the m3u match the channel id values in the xml?
"userdata\addon_data\plugin.video.iptv.recorder\xmltv1.xml"

Hi Primaeval,

Is it possible to add support for the MOD of the ESTUARY skin?

 I expect so.

Look for the file called
DialogPVRInfo.xml
and add this to the grouplist control with an id of 9000.
ie after
<control type="grouplist" id="9000">
xml:
                    <include content="InfoDialogButton">
                        <param name="width" value="275" />
                        <param name="id" value="666" />
                        <param name="icon" value="icons/infodialogs/record.png" />
                        <param name="label" value="IPTV Recorder" />
                        <param name="onclick_1" value="Action(close)" />
                        <param name="onclick_2" value="RunScript(plugin.video.iptv.recorder,$ESCINFO[ListItem.ChannelName],$ESCINFO[ListItem.Title],$ESCINFO[ListItem.Date],$ESCINFO[ListItem.Duration],$ESCINFO[ListItem.Plot])" />
                        <param name="visible" value="System.hasAddon(plugin.video.iptv.recorder)" />
                    </include>
                    <include content="InfoDialogButton">
                        <param name="width" value="275" />
                        <param name="id" value="667" />
                        <param name="icon" value="icons/infodialogs/record.png" />
                        <param name="label" value="Recordings" />
                        <param name="onclick_1" value="Action(close)" />
                        <param name="onclick_2" value="ActivateWindow(10025,&quot;plugin://plugin.video.iptv.recorder/recordings&quot;,return)" />
                        <param name="visible" value="System.hasAddon(plugin.video.iptv.recorder)" />
                    </include>

It looks like it is here from his repo
https://github.com/Guilouz/skin.estuary....fo.xml#L57

Look in the one that IPTV Recorder creates to make sure you understand where it should go:
"addons\skin.estuary.iptv.recorder\xml\DialogPVRInfo.xml"

Can it be done with any skin?

 I expect so.

The code above is for Estuary based skins.

Confluence ones are a bit different but similar.
Follow this post for details.
https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid...pid2824451

The main thing is you need to do is close the dialog boxes and do the RunScript for the program recording options,
xml:
Action(close)
RunScript(plugin.video.iptv.recorder,$ESCINFO[ListItem.ChannelName],$ESCINFO[ListItem.Title],$ESCINFO[ListItem.Date],$ESCINFO[ListItem.Duration],$ESCINFO[ListItem.Plot])
or do the ActivateWindow to reach the Recordings.
xml:
Action(close)
Code:
ActivateWindow(10025,plugin://plugin.video.iptv.recorder/recordings,return)

Hello forum..  great add-on!!  I have it working just fine in Win10 but I cannot seem to get it working with Linux-Mint.  I suspect the FFmpeg file that i'm selecting in settings is incorrect.  The .json and .ts files show in the selected share when a recording begins, however the .ts does not increase in size.  I have Kodi 18.1 and ffmpeg v7:2.8.15-0ubuntu0.16.04.1 installed on a VM.  I've tried pointing the "ffmpeg exe" to the following locations below w/o success.  My most recent log is attached.  Please advise if possible, thanks!!

 It can't uncompress your xml file after downloading it to a temporary file.
Change the name of
"userdata\addon_data\plugin.video.iptv.recorder\xmltv1.tmp"
to
"userdata\addon_data\plugin.video.iptv.recorder\xmltv1.gz"
and see if you can open it with a program like 7zip.

Check if the source of your xml is ok by opening its url in a browser.
