1. Installing “PVR IPTV Simple Client”
The “TV” feature of Kodi requires the use of a PVR.In our case we will use the PVR “IPTV Simple Client”.
IPTV Simple Client will serve as a bridge between Kodi TV and the add-on Catch-up TV & More.
Indeed, we will provide the PVR a m3u file containing entries for each available channel in the add-on.
Each entry of this file associates a name of channel (for example France 2) with the Python file corresponding to this channel in the plugin (plugin://plugin.video.catchuptvandmore/main/live_bridge/?item_id=france-2&item_module=resources.lib.channels.fr.francetv
).
So, when a channel is selected in Kodi TV, this last call in background Catch-up TV & More which deals with recovering the video stream before transmitting it back to Kodi which opens the player with the requested channel .
If Kodi is installed on Linux, you need to first install the PVR on your system with the command apt-get install kodi-pvr-iptvsimple
.
To install “PVR IPTV Simple Client”, open “Add-ons”.
Then choose the open cardboard logo.
Install from repository.
PVR clients.
Select PVR IPTV Simple Client.
If it’s not installed, install-it.
2. Configuring “PVR IPTV Simple Client”
It is now necessary to configure IPTV Simple Client.
The first thing to do is to give IPTV Simple Client the m3u file to use, which is the list of channels you want to appear in Kodi TV.
In the “General” tab choose “Local path” for the location (1).
Finally, select “M3U Play List Path” to open the Kodi File Explorer (2).
The m3u files of each country are in the m3u
folder present in the add-on folder (plugin.video.catchuptvandmore
).This folder m3u
is hidden by default in Kodi. You need to activate the option Show hidden files and directories present “System > Media” to have access to these m3u files.
The Kodi addons
folder depends on your platform:
- Windows:
C:Users[user]AppDataRoamingKodiaddons
- Linux:
/home/[user]/.kodi/addons
- macOS:
/Users/[user]/Library/Application Support/Kodi/addons
- Android:
/sdcard/Android/data/org.xbmc.kodi/files/.kodi/addons
- LibreELEC:
/storage/.kodi/addons
- Shield Android TV:
/internal/Android/data/org.xbmc.kodi/files/.kodi/addons
- Amazon Fire:
/External storage/Android/Data/org.xbmc.kodi/files/.kodi/addon
For others, you can find your “special://home”here.
Finally, go in the m3u
folder by following this path:
plugin.video.catchuptvandmore/resources/m3u
Now you can choose the m3u file of you favourite country.
the file live_tv_all.m3u
contains channels of all available countries.
Some countries have TV guides with XMLTV files.These files allow Kodi to display the schedules and program descriptions of your TV channels.
Go to the “EPG Settings” tab of the PVR IPTV Simple Client settings and select “XMLTV URL”.
Finally copy and paste your country guide (again, the tv_guide_all
guide contains all TV guides of all available countries)
