Cristian Gheonea 0 Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 Hey guys, I've just installed latest Emby release in Ubuntu 16.04 X64 and I've added some streams and xmltv feed. Please note that the tv m3u playlist is dynamic and also the xmltv feed. What happens is that I map a couple of channels and after I save and exit the view, I go again in map channels, all the channels available in the m3u are mapped to the last channel I mapped. The problem is that the mapped channels configuration is not saved as it supposed to. Please let me know if everything is clear. We can get in touch and show you what exactly happens.

Guest plexman Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 (edited) Try restarting the server everytime you update the m3u. I don't think this is a bug, and if it is you should look at how to report a bug. Edited August 22, 2016 by plexman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37180 Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 do all the channels in the m3u have the same channel number? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cristian Gheonea 0 Posted August 24, 2016 Author Share Posted August 24, 2016 Hi Admin for your kindness. My m3u file is in this format: #EXTM3U #EXTINF:-1,Stream1 http://domain.com:port/streams/1.m3u8 #EXTINF:-1,Stream2 http://domain.com:port/streams/2.m3u8 #EXTINF:-1,Stream3 http://domain.com:port/streams/3.m3u8 #EXTINF:-1,Stream4 http://domain.com:port/streams/4.m3u8 Is it possible to know how the m3u files are being processed and what's the correct format I should use in order to have correctly mapped the xml channels with the m3u streams? Thanks, Cristian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37180 Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 Hi, you can see samples here: http://xmtvplayer.com/build-m3u-file Basically I would change the -1 to unique channel numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cristian Gheonea 0 Posted August 24, 2016 Author Share Posted August 24, 2016 Thanks Luke for the instructions, I'll try and let you know what the results are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cristian Gheonea 0 Posted August 24, 2016 Author Share Posted August 24, 2016 Hi Luke, Adding unique channel number does not help getting rid of duplicated name or fixing the epg issue. Posting here a screen shot of my content would not be apropriate or a good idea. Please find me in private and I will provide you all you need.

Luke 37180 Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 You need to refresh the guide after making the change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cristian Gheonea 0 Posted August 24, 2016 Author Share Posted August 24, 2016 I confirm the XMLTV channel mapping works if the m3u is formated as: #EXTM3U #EXTINF:1,Stream 1 http://domain.com:port/streams/1.m3u8 #EXTINF:2,Stream 2 http://domain.com:port/streams/2.m3u8 #EXTINF:3,Stream 3 http://domain.com:port/streams/3.m3u8 There is another issue regarding duplicate stream names, but i'll address it thru other topic for which i open.
