NZ channels

@matthuisman
Hi Matt,

I am trying to implement your m3u for NZ channels. Of the sections listed, which is most suitable for me to use within Channels.

I tried the Raw version. Of the channels I tried TV NZ1 and NZ2 report a server/incorrect format. The 3 you listed requiring local IP are working for me using a smartdns.

The EPG isn't coming up with all of them. I will look at a bit more.

Thanks

RAW is what you should be using

Thanks Matt.
For some reason I still get the same error. The screenshot is below.

I extracted the stream myself from the TV NZ website. I got this (below). When I add this as custom channels into Channels it seems to work

all that i.mjh.nz url does is redirect to: https://duoak7vltfob0.cloudfront.net/v1/master/b1f4432f8f95be9e629d97baabfed15b8cacd1f8/TVNZ_2/master.m3u8

Hi Matt,

I am also trying to use your raw playlist and getting the same error reported above - only for TVNZ channels it seems.

When I try and add the cloudfront link above I get the following error.
invalid source url: unexpected URL without #EXTINF header

I am based in NZ and the raw playlist works fine for me with PVR Live on Android TV.

Any suggestions to help with this?

Thanks
Henry

Hi, New to Channels DVR
I ran into the problem of TVNZ1, 2, DUKE and JUICE showing a 403 forbidden error on Matts playlist.
Eventually got them all working with a combination of the playlist URL and the following text entries.

#EXTM3U x-tvg-url="https://iptv-org.github.io/epg/guides/en/i.mjh.nz.xml"

#EXTINF:-1 tvg-id="TVNZ1.nz" tvg-logo="https://i.imgur.com/Nx76HUE.png" group-title="General",TVNZ 1

Didn't really know what I was doing, just guess work and copy and pasting. Anyway all the channels in the playlist now work and show EPG. I have 4 orphaned duplicate channels which work but don't display the EPG. A bit messy but not an issue as I don't have them in favourites.

Wish I'd seen this topic first, Kors solution above would have been much easier.
