Perfect Player Not showing EPG

by flakie99

Installed perfect player on my Firestick 4K.

All works but no EPG. I get my EPG from Schedules direct and use EPG123 to make the xmltv file.

I am using a customized m3u file while I choose which provider I want to use.

In Emby I use xTeve to create the m3u and xmltv files and it worked flawlessly except for Emby does not always play links that are working.

Tried the fixes I found online (all relating to when to download the epg) but made no difference.

URLs are correct.

I tried to download the windows app in the hoe there may be some channel mapping feature in it but the download is corrupt (forced to reboot to stop it using all cpu on failed install).

Stuck now.

There is an option to hide epg guide. My kids have done it a few times and I was losing my mind the first time it happened until I finally saw the option to show epg.

Are you sure your epg link is working? I've never had any issues in perfect player, but you might want to check out tivimate or implayer. They cost a few bucks, but are worth it imo. I'm a little more partial to tivimate, but both are good players.

Have you tested your epg link on a computer? If you paste the link in a browser it should download and show you the data. However, if you've had it working in emby, it's likely fine.

Thanks all but I think I am going to stick with this Smart IPTV app. It s pretty basic but now I have figured out how to see the epg it will do for me.

Use Tivimate and your troubles will be over. Your finding out that Perfect Player isn't so Perfect.
