Hi,

I copied the IPTV Simple Client (19.3.0) addon data from Kodi 19 to Kodi 20 (20.8.1)
I'm getting this options when open the settings
The "Edit Migrated..." is marked, selecting it showing the correct previous data.
But when I go to the "Live TV" I get old strange channel list etc.
I tried the "Clear data" of Live TV but still the same.

How can I get the previous Live TV data (channels, logos, epg, etc...) as before?
Is there any known problem here with the Live TV data migration?

Please edit the settings and check that they are correct. If you'd like to check this manually you can compare the old settings.xml and the new instance-settings-1.xml to make sure they are correct. It could be that a setting is not being migrated correctly. If you find one I can fix it and release a new version.

The "settings.xml" files are identical, but there are diffrences between the old "settings.xml" and the file "instance-settings-1.xml".

The previous was: (local m3u file)

Code:

<setting id="m3uPathType">0</setting>

It was converted to: (Which is wrong value)

Code:

<setting id="m3uPathType" default="true">1</setting>

It should be:

Code:

<setting id="m3uPathType" default="true">0</setting>

There are some other new properties in the new file,
but the problem was with the "m3uPathType" value conversion.

if you manually change this file and restart does it work ok?

Yes, I think it worked.

The pattern is not stable.
One time the pattern was like this:

Code:

<setting id="m3uPathType" default="true">0</setting>

On another time it stays with this pattern:

Code:

<setting id="m3uPathType">0</setting>

You can change it also through the "Edit Migrated...." option and change it to local source.
But of course it should set it automatically after migration.

You are right. v2.8.0 performed the migration but incorrectly migrated that setting. With v2.8.1 that should have been fixed, but if you already had 2.8.0 installed, as the setting was already migrated, it had no effect.

Thread marked solved.
