Hi i live in Albania and the epgs for albanian channels are not available so i tried to test them with an external playlist with the epg imported but unfortunately they were not working...Does the vewd/opera devices support external EPG?
My playlist:
#EXTM3U x-tvg-url="http://albepg.com/epg/guide.xml"
#EXTINF:0 tvg-name="ALB MUSIC HD" tvg-logo="ALB%20MUSIC%20HD.png", Alb MUSIC HD

We provide limited support of XMLTV for all of the devices.

There is an explanation here:
https://ss-iptv.com/en/operators/epg
If you want to use XMLTV you should check the required headers.

We also provide support of the compressed ".xml.gz" format with the following requirements:
Less than 0.5 MB after compression.

Response should have the "Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *" header. for any type of source.
Provided link http://albepg.com/epg/guide.xml doesn't have it.
So, you need to add missing header of the HTTP response for this link.

Performance of loading XMLTV changes dramatically from device to device.

Generally, No.

This is the response:

Code: Select all

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Date: Thu, 22 Mar 2018 15:42:19 GMT
Server: Apache/2.4.7 (Ubuntu)
Last-Modified: Thu, 22 Mar 2018 00:30:24 GMT
ETag: "bf48-567f569e41986"
Accept-Ranges: bytes
Content-Length: 48968
Content-Type: application/x-gzip


There is no required header:

Code: Select all

Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *


The right response should be like following:

Code: Select all

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Date: Thu, 22 Mar 2018 15:42:19 GMT
Server: Apache/2.4.7 (Ubuntu)
Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *
Last-Modified: Thu, 22 Mar 2018 00:30:24 GMT
ETag: "bf48-567f569e41986"
Accept-Ranges: bytes
Content-Length: 48968
Content-Type: application/x-gzip


You may use the external playlists publishing guide which one helps you to solve the XMLTV loading issue (to add required header).

Hello Friend,
Have you got the EPG that you have in the url to work?

What code have you had to include?

Thank you.
