I've purposefully url encoded any character that could be interpreted as a file system character on Windows.
Kodi should decode it properly when you add the files into the library.

 Ah yeah. Windows :-) 

macOS allows file names to contain ":". That's cool then. I can get away with ":" => " -".

Try 0.0.61.

Thanks for that.
Could you see if you can break it some more with utf8 characters.
Maybe in the tvg-id or programme titles or descriptions.
It is very tricky to find all the utf8 bugs as there are so many different encodings involved in the urls, html, xml, m3u and python files.

This is looking good now. Thanks.
