Anyone else having issues getting your favorite channels and whatnot sorted out and then the provider changes something and now everything is back to default? In this case I have had it happen a ton lately every week with Vaders and Fab. Using TvHeadEnd.
Favorite channels where, what app? m3u can change, channels added and removed from provider, of course.
Yes.. I got tired of it so I just saved the m3u file to my hard drive and loaded it into tvheadend from there.. That eliminates the constant changes..
Live by the rule of accepting m3u content will randomly change without warning and epg xml content will be intermittent f-d. You'll be much happier.
Do what you can to mitigate any changes / breakages by pre-processing the m3u / epg data that you pull.
The people running IPTV services don't care about maintaining a "software contract" or "minimizing breaking changes". They have the attention span of a gnat and generally flip things around on any day that ends in y with no warning or explanation.
Yep. I was using xtream-editor with Vaders and then they changed the M3U and all my customizations were gone. I decided to just use Vaders apk and not use xtream-editor because I didn't feel like customizing my playlist again.
