It's working for me in Channels DVR.
Have XMLTV guide updating hourly and displaying about 6-7 hours of guide data for 242 channels.
For anyone else using it, you may want to set
XMLTV Guide Data
https://i.mjh.nz/SamsungTVPlus/us.xml.gz (gzipped xml file is about 1/10 the size of the unzipped one)
Refresh Every 1 Hour
just updated the i.mjh.nz redirects to use the commit hash.
lets see if that helps...
Guides are coming in correctly for me. Thanks for your products and good work.
Anyone else have issues with MotorTrend FAST TV? Seems to just play 15 seconds then freeze.
I am trying to add this source and getting guide info using the links above but not a picture when I try to watch. Using this link:
https://i.mjh.nz/SamsungTVPlus/us.m3u8
Any ideas? I've deleted the source & recreated with a new name but same issues.
These are my settings:
Nickname: Samsung TV Plus
Stream Format: HLS
Source: URL
https://i.mjh.nz/SamsungTVPlus/us.m3u8
Options:
Refresh URL daily
Prefer channel-number from M3U
No stream Limit
XMLTV Guide Data
https://i.mjh.nz/SamsungTVPlus/us.xml
Refresh Every 1 Hour
Although this setup is almost identical to what I had (Name, channel number option) I deleted the source & recreated. It's working now - thank you!
Follow-up question. The channel is working now & guide data is populated. However, recording some shows off ION + channel (Murdoch Mysteries) & not all of the episode data is not there. Just a record date & description of the episode. Is there anyway to link this to season/episode so it can be watched in order - even manually?
There guide data is could be better and Pluto TV which has many of the same channels is even worse.
Please read this to understand how these Custom sources are handled versus OTA/TVE stations:
Then do this if you want to change something missing in the metadata like the season/episode number:
Reading through the responses it would appear that the season/episode info is not part of the guide info provided by Samsung I am using in my source that I had pulled from a recent post on this thread (CBS News). I had already manually edited the Metadata (nice editor BTW) but was hoping there might be a more complete guide available that would have the season/episode info. Also, I had used the Fix Incorrect Match function with some recordings I had moved over from my Tivos and finally figured out that it isn't available on directly recorded shows which would have been a time saver.
BTW - the help files that the Channels team creates are really good and I am taking the time to start there, they have answered many of my initial questions.
It looks like the EPGS are not updating again for Samsung Plex Pluto and Stirr.
My dockers for Pluto and Stirr seem to be fine, Plex has not run out of guide data yet, but Samsung has been out since yesterday. Looks like something has crashed/failed/hung-up on @matthuisman's site.
Pluto fine here, SamsungTV blank for at least a day, don't use the other 2.
I'm seeing the same thing on the same sources - no guide data for Samsung.
should be back now. my automation was failing to connect to the vpn.
have switched them all over to more reliable wireguard connections now so should be better going forward
Been working for me since he posted.
