Open the plugin.video.live.streams folder.
Doubleclick the source_file and choose to open with notepad.

Edit path to the correct one, eg:
C:\\Users\\Rümy\\AppData\\Roaming\\XBMC\\userdata\\addon_data\\plugin.video.live​​​.streams\\TVchannels.xml

Or any other folder where you wanna keep the source xml file/s

I have no source_file.xml in...\\addon_data\\plugin.video.live​​​.streams\\

Try to create an empty textfile named source_file and put in the plugin.video.live.streams folder.
(source_file does not have an extension)
Add the following line, and edit paths to where you keep the xml channel file/s:
[["LiveTV", "D:\\test\\Streams\\LiveTV.xml"], ["xxx", "D:\\test\\Streams\\xxx.xml"]]

Save and restart XBMC, does it work?

i created a textfile called source_file and renamed it to source_file.xml

after that i put this line:

[["new channels", "C:\Users\Rümy\Desktop\XBMC\new channels.xml"], ["HD TV", "C:\Users\Rümy\Desktop\XBMC\HD TV.xml"]]

and saved.

-->script failed :-(

Filename should be source_file only, not source_file.xml
Also you need double backward slashes, eg:
C:\\Users\\Rümy\\Desktop\\XBMC\\new channels.xml

I saved the source_file in:

C:\Users\Rümy\AppData\Roaming\XBMC\userdata\addon_data\plugin.video.live.streams​

and put this line:

[["new channels", "C:\Users\Rümy\Desktop\XBMC\new channels.xml"], ["HD TV", "C:\Users\Rümy\Desktop\XBMC\HD TV.xml"]]

-->script failed :-(

C:\\Users\\Rümy\\Desktop\\XBMC\\new channels.xml

:-(

I changed to double backward slashes

saved the file and started xbmc

click to live stream addon choose the file i choosed: C:\Users\Rümy\Desktop\XBMC\HD TV.xml press DONE Button -->script failed :'(

Can someone fix it with umlaut ? Pls

After you click "Choose file" you have to click "Add source" BEFORE pressing the Done button.
Did you do that?
