    EPG for IPTV

    Hi all,

    I am trying out IPTV services for the first time and so far so good.

    My only issue is no EPG.

    There is one guy on another forum who has managed to get UK,DE & Ex-Yu EPG working somehow.
    Here is an example of what has been done.

    I am trying to understand how this is done so I can help.

    #NAME UK
    #DESCRIPTION BBC1
    #SERVICE 1:0:1:2874:800:2:11A0000:0:0:0:http%3a//clientportal.link%3a8080/live/User/Password/3580.ts: BBC1
    #DESCRIPTION ITV1
    #SERVICE 1:0:1:2756:7FC:2:11A0000:0:0:0:http%3a//clientportal.link%3a8080/live/User/Password/3577.ts: ITV2
    #DESCRIPTION ITV2
    #SERVICE 1:0:1:2814:806:2:11A0000:0:0:0:http%3a//clientportal.link%3a8080/live/User/Password/3578.ts: ITV3
    #DESCRIPTION ITV3
    #SERVICE 1:0:1:2758:7FC:2:11A0000:0:0:0:http%3a//clientportal.link%3a8080/live/User/Password/3579.ts: ITV4
    #DESCRIPTION ITV4

    Am I right in thinking that the (1:0:1:2874:800:2:11A0000:0:0:0) is the EPG ID? and obviously the Http...... is the stream.
    If someone could kindly explain how this works would be gratefully appreciated and hopefully help out others how to finally have IPTV with working EPG.

    Hope i'm not breaking any rules.

    Using a windows program called echannalizer, you can load your m3u as a bouquet, then you can copy the unique service id from the satellite channel, to your iptv channel. there are guides for this on YouTube, it is fairly time consuming but relatively easy.

    Is this the best way to get epg data for IPTV.

    surely there is a better method than this?

    Have a look at xtream-editor you can rearrange the channels and map epg data foreign channels as well but im struggling with that part.

    You'll need to setup a Swap File for your ageing Duo. Blue Button > ViX > Swap Manager. Create a 256MB Swap File to your HDD.

    My VuDuo has Vix image but I have problem with recording IPTV. I have tried 5.0.21, 5.0.14 etc. but no luck. Is wooshbuild better and will it work on old Duo?

    A few friends of mine had Vu+ Duo for IPTV and non had success with recording. Viewing was fine. I recommended them to get the Mut@nt HD51. I wouldn't even entertain putting the Wooshbuild on the ageing Duo, it will grind your stb to a halt.

    I always think that when "someone/whoever" offers a package that does everything for you, there is a catch - "they" maybe completely honest, but basically you are totally in "their" hands.
    It is much better to take responsibilty and learn how to do everything - it is not that dificult!

    I agree twol. but because of time issue I got a paid service. The provider asked me to use Xtream-editor and all epg's etc are working. Recording is a problem on my old Vu+Duo.

    I will look to buy Mut@nt HD51 as advised by Andy_Hazza. Is this good with both IPTV and Sat. TV? Where would be the best place to purchase?
