Hello,
Today is my first day of playing around with xbmc and love it so far! after fighting all day trying to install IPTVsimple PVR on my mac, I was able to install it and make it enabled, then resetted the EPG database as seen in some videos tutorials and when I go to Live Tv ==> TV Channels is empty! any ideas of what Im doing wrong?
Thank you!

Channels won't just magically appear. You need to tell it where to look for a m3u file (channel urls) and a xmltv file (epg info).

You need to search the web for stream URLs, then put them into an M3U file as explained in the main thread for the addon.

No there isn't, you have to use Google.

There are instructions on how to use it in the forum thread. You'll have to find streams yourself though, mostly people use it to play their ISP-provided streams.
