I mentioned a problem with my Dreambox 800se some on the previous page. The problem is found and it seems to be a bug in stream handling of this plugin.
The affected channels, that did not run, had an alternative channel set in the Dreambox channel menu. When streaming with VLC everything works fine nevertheless, but I did notice the given stream address changed in VLC with an alternative present.
When deactivating all alternatives in the Dreambox the VU plugin streamed this channels OK now. Perhaps this is something you like to review.

its well supported, but not yet up to date with the last pvr api change. ppl get used to wait a bit or use the time you spend on making requests to learn to code.

when i open the m3u with mplayer, xbmc is off.
i opened the m3u (without the addon), just dragging the m3u file inside xbmc. It doesn't play, so it is not a addon problem.
If I record the stream with dreamstream e2 I get a ts file which is not playable with vlc nor xbmc. "Media player classic" and mplayer plays it with no problem.
When I use "ts doctor" on the recorded ts file it creates a "fixed" file which is playable by all players (including XBMC), because (I believe) "ts doctor" filters only a PMT.
the log from "ts doctor" is too big to fit in this reply. How can i send attachments? (i didn't turn on debug logging in xbmc yet, but if you need I can do it. Just tell me if you want debug on the m3u, the "bad ts" or the "fixed ts")

another simpler problem, while you think in this one... :-)
I have a lot of channels and it takes a lot of time to load all the channels and epg data each time i start live tv.
I have to wait at least 10 minutes to be able to play a channel, because it seems that the channel list is build each time I run xbmc.
I've tried in the "channel options" not to update chennels, but without sucess...

no...
so it is not storing...
lol. I will find it and try..
meanwhile do you have any clues about the problem of shared pmt channels?
I want to restream/transcode those streams to the internet and i don't have enough upload speed (i have adsl so i'm stuck to 1 Mb/s).
XBMC does restream/transcoding? Sorry for the questions. I'm just starting with this program and it seems complex...

Is there no possible way to get this compatible with xbmc master + pvr? Would be really awesome cuz the only thing I'm lacking is bitstreaming hd audio. Anything anyone could do to help, donations or whatever I'm sure we would be more than happy.
