NextPVR Plugin to save channel logos
#1
Hi all,
I have Kodi 18.6 running with NextPVR 5 and the NextPVR plugin by Graeme Blackley (Current version 3.3.19).
For my standard channels, I have downloaded the pack and saved them in to a local folder, and this works absolutely fine.
I also have an IPTV service connected to NextPVR, and in the data there are links to channel logos. These display fine on NextPVR

But I was wondering if there was any way that the plugin could check the kodi config file to find the channel logo folder and then pull through the data from NextPVR and save the logo in the folder (if it detects a channel with a logo available and no saved image locally).

I wasn't sure if this setting in the config was supposed to do this

I have it enabled, but it doesn't appear to be working.

Apologies if this is in the wrong section, but I wasn't sure where else to post it.
Cheers.

Yes this is a NextPVR specific issue so this should be moved to the NextPVR forum.  There currently is a v5 backend issue with more than a certain number of channel icons https://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.ph...#pid537127 I don't know the limit which I expect you are seeing.

I may be wrong, but I don't think it is a NextPVR issue. As I've only imported 140 channels from the M3U to test with, and in that link, it says that with more than 700 channels, the icon tag dissapears.
but going to http://IP:PORT/service?method=channel.list

and for all of the channels (via IPTV) it shows
<channel>
<id>7693</id>
<name>UK-BBC One</name>
<number>1697</number>
<minor>0</minor>
<formatted-number>1697</formatted-number>
<type>0x1</type>
<details>http://URL:PORT/USER/PASS/1134 </details>
<icon>true</icon>
</channel>

So it doesn't appear to be the same issue... as it still isn't bringing the channel logo over.
Unless it's a setting I'm missing somewhere?

Sub never specified what the current limit, the 700 channels was a user comment but since you get true then they should be available.  If you restart Kodi and they are still bad, clear the PVR database in settings and the should appear.
