Hi Lunatixz,
Have been playing around with this fantastic plugin for awhile now, and have not run into any problems until now.
I have a problem with the xml,m3u import function, it's ignored when Pseudo TV creates its EPG.
My xml & EPG work perfectly with PVR IPTV simple client, it worked in previous update.
Just to add i am using IPTV merge for the xml & EPG.

You need to post a log, m3u and xmltv you're trying to import... log should be a fresh start of Kodi right after PseudoTV is finished running background update. Also requires debugging enabled in Kodi.

Anyone seeing within the last few updates an unusually long delay for the initial program to start playing and also the time in between episodes? I’ve changed nothing but am seeing a noticeable increase of around 15 seconds or so to where before it used to be almost instant.

There haven't been any obvious changes that could cause this behavior. I'm not seeing delays on my end... it would be best to find the last build that didn't have this issue so I can compare.

FYI there are a lot of causes for slow channel changes not all of them within the control of this project....

Is anyone else still having problems with channels disappearing?  The issue has been consistent for me across versions.

I've done a couple complete kodi re-configurations from scratch, and even tried disabling auto-updates of pseudo-tv thinking that the updates were causing the channel loss.

Unfortunately it still only last a day or two before I lose everything.

I tried using the channel backup/restore function.  It says "restore 74 channels from last backup: unknown" but fails to restore.

Lunatixz:  If I create logs for this, what logs would you need?  During creation of channels, the shutdown of kodi, or the re-start when everything is gone?  I'm back on the latest version now.

i haven't seen this issue in the past couple releases since I mentioned how they were getting lost. 

@Lunatixz thank you for fixing the issue with the player showing the busy symbol very much appreciated!

Hello,

I'm using: 

Kodi 19.0
Pseudotv Live 3.0r

Log file:

The problem:
None of my content shows up within Pseudo Live TV. The content is playable and loaded in the standard interface. I only see a "Utilities" option.

I've looked at the posts here, but did not find anything related to this issue:

Is there something I'm missing? Could someone point me in the right direction? Thanks!

Did you install IPTV simple? If so did you choose Utilities> Reconfigure IPTV Simple Client for use with Pseudo TV Live?

@Lunatixz I installed the Tubi tv addon from your beta repo and added some channels that are just one show each. The shows populated just fine and the duration looks to be fine but it is just showing Content Path in the EPG instead of the show name as would be expected.

Yep, installed and I tried reconfiguring. Sadly, did not work.

Ok, let's start from the beginning, your content is local real video fikes, not strm files right? Then you installed PTVL and IPTV Simple. You then either auto tuned or manually created channels right? After that it takes a bit for PTVL to build the channels. I find it helps to restart Kodi after to get everything building.

Let me know what steps you have taken and I'll see what I can do to help.

I know this is going to sound strange but since the update to 0.3.0r kodi has been stealing focus.

Let me explain. I run a kodi instance on my main computer for updates and processing, as well as the server for pseudotv. I just leave it on on a virtual desktop and do everything else on a different virtual desktop.

Since the update from 0.3.0q to 0.3.0r it will steal focus from whatever I am doing to Kodi whenever pseudotv is updating channels.

I'll look into it... Might have something to do with python multi-processing under windows.

Thanks jctennis, appreciate you looking at this. 

Correct, video content is local content. I will add, I have Kodi installed on an Amazon Firestick. 

I installed Kodi, then installed Pseudo TV and IPTV Simple. Pseudo TV shows that it is "building" in the upper right hand corner and it does take a while to build. However no content shows up after it's done building. After it's done building it says "no new channels found" and asks me to AutoTune. Then there is further updating. Once that is done, it still shows no channels or content within PseudoTV.

It seems to me that you haven't created any channels. Go ahead and open the settings when all the processes are finished running and go to the auto tune section. Select a few channels. Try different types and see what you like. After you save everything, it takes a little while to build the channels. Again, I find restarting Kodi helps with this as PTVL will go through its initializing processes again. After everything is done building and updating choose Force PVR IPTV simple to reload from the utilities. That should get you a bit closer. After you have had some success with the auto tuned channels you can work or creating channels based on playlists or add-ons. Let me know how you make out

I started playing with Stirr from the SlyGuy repo as it seemed to go well with Pluto TV and give me a few more options.

https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=357739

I am using Stirr with IPTV Merge to create an m3u and xml to import into PTVL. The m3u and xml works fine with IPTV Simple on its own but PTVL doesn't seem to want to import it. I have attached a log as well as the m3u and xml.

I am not sure if the m3u is malformed in some way or if there is some type of incompatibility.

@Lunatixz Even more weirdness to report. Not only will my Stirr m3u not import and show in the EPG, as long as the setting for m3u import is enabled the recommended add-ons will not import and show in the EPG. I have tried with Pluto TV, Hdhomerun simple, and Locast.

Log with the Stirr m3u, Pluto tv, and HDHOMERUN Simple enabled:
