Kodi Add-on

PVR addons are binary addons unlike other python addons which can run anywhere.

How do you install kodi on appletv anyway? Is it on the App Store? Or are you using mrmc?

No. Not Mrmc. It’s kodi compiled for Apple TV.
I don’t know if I can paste the site address here, “https://www.koditvbox.tv/“
Sorry if I’m violating any rule
You can also compile it yourself if you have Apple development.

I can watch a recording in process, but I cannot time shift it.

Channels2021 · October 9, 2021, 7:01pm

Same.

tmm1 · October 9, 2021, 7:08pm

It's more helpful to know what does happen. So you watch a recording and it starts at the beginning? Then you try to seek forward and what happens? Nothing? An error?

Channels2021 · October 9, 2021, 7:24pm

Starts like any other recording, from the beginning, but all time shifting controls are ignored. No pause, play, skip or fast forward/rewind. Stop works but when you start the recording, it goes back to beginning.

It does nothing. Will not even pause.

Hi
Any idea why on step 3 when i click on channels add on repository, it says "could not connect to repository".
Thank you

Not sure. What device and kodi version?

muzicman0 · October 12, 2021, 8:33pm

Make sure you are using https, so the entry should read https://kodi.getchannels.com.

I was running Kodi 18.9. Just installed 19.2 on windows and successfully installed the addon. Thank you for your help.

Please try upgrading your DVR server to latest prerelease and see if the kodi addon is able to timeshift in-progress recordings any better.

I am right clicking the repo and it isn't updating to the new version?

Channels2021 · October 13, 2021, 2:09am

Which version of the add-on? v2021.10.5 or v2021.10.12

tmm1 · October 13, 2021, 2:13am

It's an update for the server

Channels2021 · October 13, 2021, 2:50am

I didn't notice any difference.
With the default Kodi skin, I only get the option to stop. No pause, FF/REW, skip, ect.

I'm on Server 2021.10.13.0312, and both my Shields and my PC can timeshift live TV. I tested both OTA and TVE. Both worked fine.

Channels2021 · October 13, 2021, 3:38pm

Timeshifting live TV has been working a few weeks now, with a few bugs along the way, that have been sorted out.

Timeshifting live recordings will hopefully be added. Here is an example I posted last week. This is with NextPVR. It doesn't seem that Kodi will limit this so hopefully this feature can be added.

muzicman0 · October 13, 2021, 3:40pm

oh, I missed that it was an active recording. Doh!
