We need to have root access so that we can point to busybox location but this is something that might break other programs functionality and raise some security risks also.

 Thanks. If they keep messing around I'll see if I can force everything to lowercase.
I'm surprised these sources have lasted this far to be honest.

Well, it looks like this is the end. They have gone to a paid service and even the most expensive plan only allows listings for up to 5 countries. Too bad. It was the only source I could find for many countries, like Australia and OSN channels.

If you've got a non-Android box you could use webgrab++.

I'll have to play around with that and see what I can do. Can it be meshed with xmltv Meld or would I have to use one or the other?

It's odd that they are still calling themselves "koditvepg" now that they have effectively locked out all Kodi users. I guess they get more search engine hits that way.

Would it be feasible to set it up on my laptop and save the generated xmltv file to my Dropbox, then set the epg url in TV Guide fullscreen to the Dropbox share link? Or better yet, could I put the dropbox link in custom in xmltv meld? Would that fully automate the process?

Thanks again for this add on.  It seems of great value.  I've read thru the posts here but some things are still not clear to me.  Can you help clarify?

Here's my problem, please let me know if this add on would help me out.

I'm using mostly freely available channels with m3u urls.  No paid iptv subscription.  So I have created a custom m3u file which I've uploaded into Pastebin.com
I also created from scratch my xmltv with channels and customized dummy programs in there.   I"m using these two file in your Iptvrecorder plugin without Iptv simple client.  It works fine.

My issue is I have to keep updating the xmltv to add new programs dates/hours.  It's a little of a pain to do.  So it tends to get out of date.  Would this Addon simplify my job by generating somehow  an xmltv for my channels for may be 14 days or more to reduce my need to update all the time.  Again..these channels are online freely available channels with no published Program Guide.  I have to create custom programs with standards block hours....( 2 hours for most of them.  I even did 4 hours to keep it simpler).  I'm looking into something which can even create a shell xmltv with dates and hours to reduce my manual work.  I really don't care much about the duration of programs though I would prefer minimum of one hour and a max of 6 hours.

If this add on may help get me close, how do I go about it.  I still can't really grab the process of using this even after reading and re-reading.
If not do you know any other add on or program which can help me out?

Thank you much. We appreciate your work.
