I’m not sure if this was implemented as part of the core change. The original PR is here: https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/pull/20860

Really hope there's a way to change instance settings or even create a new instance from code.

I've got an issue opened here keeping track of what I think we need in python

I've added this issue to the sticky thread here: https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid...pid3141151

I guess this can be considered somewhat of a hotfix for folks like me who like to tinker with different m3us etc and don't want to manually type things in every time. Only supports one instance but will bring back the automation part. I just threw in a line to delete the instance settings forcing it to do the migrate from the regular settings over again. Requires you to add a kodi force close line of code at the end for settings to take.

xbmcvfs.delete('special://masterprofile/addon_data/pvr.iptvsimple/instance-settings-1.xml')
SC = xbmcaddon.Addon('pvr.iptvsimple')
SC.setSetting('yoursettings')

I might need to steal that method. 😂

Lol thanks can't live without my automation scripts gotta maintain my parents setup too! Got another rudimentary script that broke going from 19 to 20 and can't figure out why. Since there's never been that I know of an easy way to clear PVR data in 1 click if the guide doesn't load I just made a button pressing script to add to the menu. Always worked. Now it just freezes when it presses clear data. This script is exclusive to aeon nox but I have one for Titan too and still freezes. Here it is if anyone finds this useful and wants to take a crack at it.

import xbmc
import sys
import json
import xbmcgui
import time

xbmc.executebuiltin('ActivateWindow(pvrsettings)')
xbmc.executebuiltin('SendClick(-74)')
time.sleep(3)
xbmc.executebuiltin("Action(Left)")
time.sleep(1)
xbmc.executebuiltin("Action(Select)")
time.sleep(3)
xbmc.executebuiltin("Action(Left)")
time.sleep(1)
xbmc.executebuiltin("Action(Select)")
time.sleep(15)
xbmc.executebuiltin("Action(Back)")

i had a script to do this at one point. involved finding the sql epg db and wiping the data basically. haha
but removed that method as "too risky"

Seems to work pretty good. So hopefully happy Kodi 20 users now

@phunkyfish
was looking at using IPTV Merge http server and then using remote url in IPTV Simple.
I have an option that makes IPTV Merge run when it gets an http call.
So this would allow IPTV Simple to control the refresh time instead of merge trying to tell it to refresh.
unfortunately on a bootup, simple try calls the url straight away before their service has started
thoughts? maybe iptv simple could have a delay?

The delay would be arbitrary and would be different depending on your setup. But IPTV Simple should try a few times before before giving up. That retry logic interval is part of the settings (I think)

Can you check this on a clean install?

Do you have a full debug log and crash log?
