You DO NOT configure IPTV Manager, it's a passive utility. If you are using IPTV Manager as a standalone plugin you select it to configure IPTV Simple; if you are using PseudoTV Live you select PseudoTV Live to configure IPTV Simple. It's one or the other...

ie, You're using IPTV Manager alone or You're using PseudoTV Live which can integrate with IPTV Manager via the import function. 

If you want to use PseudoTV Lives import function, you can either directly import any Third-Party m3u/xmltv pair, or if the plugin supports PseudoTV Live you'll be prompted to add the channel to the recommended list. Then you select the channel from the "Recommend" drop-down list.

Hope this helps clear things up. =)

 Makes perfect sense thanks. One other question. I’m not seeing this recommend list or drop down you mention?

Odd, should be in settings under predefined and after PseudoTV Live startup scan is finished, if it's not visible... usually means the list is empty. If by mistake you blacklisted the services, check if you see an option to clear the blacklist.

If still no good, try a clean start... and reboot Kodi. Be sure to select "Yes" when prompted to add recommended service.

Im doing all of this on a test computer so when things don't work out well I actually restart with a fresh install of Kodi so there shouldn't be any carry over from an old install. I don't have never seen any sort of prompt to add recommended service??
