This should fix the PS Vue incorrect xml problem.
@coremailrx8 could you check if it works.
It only works if the data source in Lab2 is the default setting of xmltv.

Sorry, my bad. I didn't enable the option.
So it does retrieves the EPG, but the first column, where the channels names are supposed to be, are blank.

All this bodge does is add an amp; to any & that isn't followed by amp; in the xmltv file.
Code:
data = re.sub('&(?!amp; )','&',data)[EDIT] If you mean where the channel logos go in the main epg then you might need to do some level of database reset.
Old channels are kept unless something changes. That is just the way it has always been before my time.
Try this for one restart only.
Settings\Source\Reset on Start
If not try
Settings\Reset Database
The first option will only clear the epg.
The second will clear your addons.ini etc.

This is the bit of code that closes TVGF if it is set to true and play.minimized is false (play in the small window).

Can you try changing your TVGF settings, open TVGF to make sure they are there, exit TVGF and then exit Kodi. Open things back up and verify that the settings are the same and hopefully that fixes it.

They aren't used to update the settings.xml file.
The most likely thing is that TVGF has been opened twice at the same time.
Either when the background update is taking place or if you get impatient with the loading time and click on TVGF again.
I tried to put some locks and checks in at one point to help prevent that but I don't think I succeeded in understanding exactly how Kodi opens program script addons.
There is also the possibility of the addon_data folder being unwritable for some reason.

Yes, I have tried that with no luck. The channels names are blank. I will attach the xml file later for you to test, I guess that may be more helpful.

What I have done in meantime is remove Dr's add on and it happened again.
Now i am attempting now is to mark xml as read only and see what happens.

Menu \ Stream Setup \ Import Playlist
There is no notification but the m3u streams will show up as the TV Guide Fullscreen addon.
But it won't pull in much of the other info like categories or time shifts.
You will have to recreate the categories by hand.
RE: TV Guide Fullscreen - possibly the most powerful TV Guide in the world. ;) - Ey3d3fy - 2018-04-12
Thanks for quick reply bud. Iv installed latest version from repo and the guide doesnt open for me. Is this because i have simple iptv client enabled and in use, although not open at the time iv tried to open this addon.
Again many thanks

Follow the Quickstart guide in the Wiki to get going.
https://github.com/primaeval/script.tvguide.fullscreen/wiki
The least you need to do is set up an xmltv source in
Settings \ Source \ xmltv Source
You can probably use the same one as IPTV Simple Client.
If it is gzipped press the gz button and take the .gz off the url.

hi i am running kodi 17.6 , windows 10 , aeon nox krypton .
i have managed to do my xmltv and i have got a paid m3u list , when i input the links to tv guide from www and run the program it says getting info from external source ,
but when you play a channel it is asking you to imput a source , can it not play from the orignal source that you put into settings ,
i was all so woundering after i have done the xmltv and loaded the file into the tv guide along with m3u why it is not picking all channels on m3u only the channels from xmltv or ido you have to use the custom option on xmltv meld
thankyou for yoyr advice

It is intended to be used with addons first of all.
The m3u handling was something someone asked for later on.
It doesn't try to link the m3u with the xmltv except by channel name, not id.
You will only get a match if the channel names match.
The Custom menu in xmltv Meld is for you to add in your own xmltv file or others from the internet.

hi thanks for your reply when you use tv guide and it asks for m3u can you not add another channel to the tv guide from m3u ,
can you not add a live channel from m3u to custom xmltv Meld thanks for your help and advice
