Just a minor update.
Fixed channel list crash - if server was mega slow or not responding. Now added this for live, vod, series, catchup pontiak
Added in Alterative EPG url in playlist settings. (the old way was you had to edit the json file)
Your provider needs to supply you with this url as it needs to match your channel IDs.
Option NOT required if you haven't been asked to use a specific EPG url.
I have seen a few of these lately using a universal EPG source. So this might the way things are going.
Someone who has one of these alternaive EPG urls, can you please test it. Because I can't. tataos
Added in Estonian Translation
And finally I was trying to some better stream management for streams that are valid but fail to initially play. (mainly adult channels )
I now reload the stream after 10 seconds.
If that fails again after another 10 seconds, then I switch the streamtype from 1 to 4097 or 4097 to 1. (I don't retry 5001, 5002, 8193. They should either work or not.)
If that fails again. You get told the stream has failed, so you don't have to sit there watching a black screen hoping its going to load.
There is also a hidden streamplayer log file. Blue button on streamplayer. Mainly for my use. But others might find it useful.
