Maybe I'm slow but is there a way to only play shows/movies at :30 and at the top of the hour? I hate stuff starting at like 8:17pm

Are you using BCTs?

::Update::

Next git update will include my official support for Gotham, there are still a few skin issues under Gotham. Please include screenshots along with your skin bug reports.

I'm also still trying to increase the stability and performance running PTVL under different OS's and video sources/formats... This is a good time to bring up your gripes...

Currently finishing up:

• Update LiveTV Artwork / Direct Artwork download
  EPG Data from PVR backend
  Video Mirroring
  

Great news!! I have been looking forward to Gotham support. I have also donated

No... should I be using them?

Hi, i am trying to add some channels in PseudoTV Live which play the content of a directory. In PseudoTV it was no Problem, since i tried to upgrade to PseudoTV Live it doesn´t seem to work anymore. Heres the content of my Logfile:

It claims that there is no matching source found for "N:\No Oldies\" but it exists. This is an network drive, if i enter the UNC-Path i get the same error. Can anyone help me here?

Thanks, Thomas

Are you using BCTs?

No... should I be using them?

What do you expect to fill the void between the shows end and next half hour?
This program is meant to emulate live tv… epg showtimes are based on Realtime show runtimes…

I suggest you read up on BCTs. When correctly configured shows will appear at the top of the hour.

Ahh.. you're right. I completely forgot that the shows are without commercials lol. Like I said, I can be slow sometimes. I'll test out BCTs when I get home.

Separate question. Would I be able to setup pseudotv live TV using just the homerun .strms without going through a pvr backend? All the backend options for xbmc are too slow on channel switching for me. I've been using the tv guide addon with just the .strm files/xmltv and like that better. I have a different server that handles all my recording.

Having trouble installing this on my PI. Constantly getting the "add on does not have the correct structure" message. How do i Install Manually ?

Use the hdhomrun autotune feature

Either ssh copy to addon folder or unzip to storage folder and use xbmcs filemanager and move to correct location.

[jiggsaw]

I can't get hdhomerun autotune to work. It's not pulling in any channels. I've renamed strms, tried different xmltv grabbers, etc. Is setting up PVR in xbmc a requirement?

[mrdally204]

Can someone please help me config a channel. The smart playlist I add works, but entire rv series are playing straight through, no variety at all.
For instance, Big bang theory would play, followed by Big bang theory, Big bang theory, etc until it ran out of files I assume. I have about 7 or 8 shows under tag "TBS"
I would like it to play 2 big bangs, then 2 king of queens, 2 Raymonds. etc until it runs out of new shows, then loops back to BBT.

What did I configure incorrectly? Is it because I used tags? Please help

Hello,

This might be a stupid question, but I am not sure, does this addon also supports clasic IPTV, like PVR addons? Can I import channels with m3u file, which includes channel list with IP adresses?

Regards

Not directly from m3u, but you can manually create a chtype 9 for each link in the m3u or copy and paste those links into a strm file and create a channel off that info...

Read Milkmans guide to PseudoTV, or search either this thread of the official PseudoTV thread.

Instructions on how to create interleaving channels have been posted multiple times

Search this thread, it's been discussed before... not going into details... the strm file has to match one of the channel names found in the xmltv file.

ah, ok.. don´t wanna bother you any further, but when do you think will u release the support code? Thx for answering..

not bothering me, lol... just pointing out that i'm almost 95% sure it's because you're running gotham... I will push some updates tomorrow which will add full support for gotham and should fix your problems....
