m3u and guide data help

[bandit8623 213]

Hello,

previously i have made custom channel lists and had no guide data,  but my provider changed all urls... so setting up again.  but emby is not pulling any epg data.

Can someone let me know what im doing wrong?  ill try adding my steps.   

add m3u

 

 

ignore the m3u fil name diff.  above is example.  but same format

should data be pulled in?  im obviosuly missing something in formatting? ive tried changing the tvg-id to the ones below no change.

 

Thanks

Hi @bandit8623

#EXTM3U url-tvg="http://www.teleguide.info/download/new3/xmltv.xml.gz"
#EXTINF:-1 group-title="Science", Discovery
http://example.com/channel1
#EXTINF:-1 group-title="Sport", Eurosport
http://example.com/channel2
#EXTINF:-1 tvg-logo="Eurosport" tvg-name="Eurosport" tvg-shift="+1",Eurosport +1
http://example.com/channel3
#EXTINF:-1 group-title="Custom" tvg-logo="https://cdn1.iconfinder.com/data/icons/Primo_Icons/PNG/128x128/video.png",My Custom channel

Take a look at the above, then have a look at your m3u fille.  Notice the format of the url-tvg tag above points to the guide data.

Might want to cover up your m3u details there.
