Emby Guide Data Confusion

[zsurfaraz 4]

Hi All,

 

When I go to add a guide data link from my iptv provider, I am asked to choose a country. I choose the country, but then only the guide data for that countrys' channels is updated. Even though the link has multiple countries guide data. Can you please advise how to resolve this?

You would need to create separate guides for each country, then you will probably have to go into each guide and remap the channels, because the IPTV providers channel ID's are not going to match the guide data provider channel ID's.

Okay, I can see how that's not completely intuitive but we ask the country first so that we can determine exactly what types of guide data are available for you.  Just select your country and then a new drop down will appear and you should select "XMLTV Data" and fill in your guide data url.

 

Thanks.
