IPTV none TVchannels availabele Raspbery Pi
#1
hi all,

i would like to get some http streams working on my Rpi.

what i have done is:
-- didnt know there was a setting to enable the TV function, so i did that.

-- i enabled the PVR IPTV simple client 1.6.1

-- in the iptv setting, i selected the path to my m3u file:

#EXTINF:-1 tvg-id="id1" tvg-name="Channel_1" tvg-logo="logo1" group-title="Group 1",Channel 1
http://***********************
#EXTINF:-1 tvg-id="id2" tvg-name="Channel_2" tvg-logo="logo2" group-title="Group 2",Channel 2
http://***********************
#EXTINF:-1 tvg-id="id3" tvg-name="Channel_3" tvg-logo="logo3" group-title="Group 3",Channel 3
http://***********************
#EXTINF:-1 tvg-id="id4" tvg-name="Channel_4" tvg-logo="logo4" group-title="Group 4",Channel 4
http://***********************


BUT !!!!

when i open the TV channel list, i see nothing!

what am i doing wrong? i rebooted a couple of times, even tried the erase the TV database in th settings.

Let's imagine you're sick and call the doctor. You tell him you have a stomach pain. Do you expect him to come up with the correct answer just like that without examining you? Yeah, I didn't think so.

debug log (wiki)

Also make sure you can play the streams in VLC to make sure they actually work.

There's also a dedicated thread for questions about this plugin, you wouldn't have had to open your own.

you could be more sarcasticer Smile

the streams works fine in VLC.

i am going try the debug


EDIT 1:

why is the file corrupted? the place where it is, i reachable on the network, the user and pass is correct in the line but it says its corrupted. what do i do wrong? i have the lines in the m3u file as i described above.

Most likely the contents are incorrect. Make sure you follow the (agreeable quite limited) instructions in the main addon thread.

1. Post a full log, not just snippets (you would have known that if you'd read the rules)

2. Try putting the playlist file on the local SD card instead of on a Samba share.

Add
Code:
#EXTM3U
to the beginning of your m3u file. I had the same problem with an empty channel list.

@ MaxiMillion Thanks dude!

@ Negge : please stop messing around

i tried what in the wiki says

http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Add...ource_code

#EXTM3U tvg-shift=3

Go and have a look. This doesnt work! I know how to read. this didnt work out so well with the tvg-shift. I can see now that the channels are loaded, but not working, i will check the logs and see if there is something else thats messing.

If you can't find the cause, upload your log to xbmclogs.com and link it here.

yes i found it. it had to do with the network settings (DNS wasnt good).

thx guys

PS: maybe the wiki needs to be changed. first line of m3u file should be #EXTM3U in stead of #EXTM3U tvg-shift=3
