EPG Netherlands

Post by BartVdeC »

My IPTV-provider has put "NL" in front of every channel, and therefore the EPG is not working (as I read the SS IPTV-EPG looks for "NPO 1" and not "NL NPO 1", for example). If I put the channels to favorites and change the name (Title), it looks like I can get the EPG working. Is there a list how exactly SS IPTV is looking for matching EPG? For example, "Fox" gives an EPG, but for wrong the country (of course, Fox is a channel in many countries, I understand), so I should probably use "Fox NL" or something.

Thank you for your help, or any other tips to get the EPG working are very welcome.

The app is great, by the way!

We don't have EPG for Netherlands, you can see EPG for NPO 1/2/3 channels as it's represented in French source.

Thank you for your quick response. Is EPG-support for the Netherlands going to happen in the future?

We've just added it.
Check if you have "nl" country code set in app's settings

The EPG works great! I got it working for almost all channels, except:
Veronica
NPO Zapp Extra
MTV
MTV Brand New
MTV Music 24
Nick Music
HBO 3

Is there any way to get those working as well?

Yes, Veronica shares the channel with Disney XD, though Disney XD is also on another channel where it broadcasts 24 hours a day (on which EPG is working). NPO Zapp Xtra and NPO Zappelin extra are the same (I guess they figured Zapp Xtra is more cool or something).

Since a while the EPG does not work anymore for the Netherlands. I didn't change any settings. Has there been an update or do you know what could be the issue?

Thanks again.
