 The error in the log is
OperationalError: database is locked

By default IPTV Recorder won't start loading the xml and m3u for 60 seconds after startup.
You can change it in Settings \ Service.

You might also need to delete the database by hand in
userdata\addon_data\plugin.video.iptv.recorder\xmltv.db
and also a partial .journal file.

If it gets farther after that pm me your xml and m3u and I'll have a look.

Hi Primaeval, I have uninstalled IPTV recorder and have seen a message from the estuary skin.
Some files are missing.
Could this be the issue causing not to record?

I’m using Kodi Krypton
I have black glass nova skin.
I have successfully installed the iptv addon and the channels appear in my epg and work.
I have installed the iptv recorder and configured it.
Installed Ffmpeg file and pointed to it.
I’m going to the epg guide and trying to record or set a timer but it’s coming up with errror message “ timer creation failed. the pvr afd-onn does not support a suitable timer type”
Are you able to help ?
I’m fairly new to this so forgive me.

spmc has some non-standard paths, I seem to remember.
The ffmpeg location should be in the jobs py files in the cmd.
The logic for copying ffmpeg and  making it runnable is in the ffmpeg_location function.

Done. I tested it on the Simple IPTV PVR client and i can see the film. Nice

record starts, and it says "record finished", but nothing is recorded. I get this error: https://paste.kodi.tv/hitubeqeqo.kodi

yes, two files were created. stdout file is empty, I attached stderr here: https://paste.kodi.tv/zuqukopana

yes, it is copied and is executable. However, ffmpeg is copied in the /data/data/com.semperpax.spmc16/ folder, and this is also the folder referenced by the py jobs files

Your ffmpeg is too old.

Either find a newer one or turn off

Anyway, you need to turn them off so they don't appear in the jobs file.
This should not be in the cmd line:
'-reconnect_at_eof', '1', '-reconnect_streamed', '1', '-reconnect_delay_max'

Try changing the m3u and xml so that you have a simple channel name and program title.
The ones in the tests folder were designed to test awkward punctuation and unicode characters.
Call the channel "test" and the program title "test" so the filename is just ascii.
Make sure the tvg-id is test and the "channel id" is test too to be safe.

Remember to turn the ffmpeg debug setting off again that writes the stdout/stderr files to actually record something. 

python:
 File "/storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.semperpax.spmc16/files/.spmc/addons/plugin.video.iptv.recorder/main.py", line 547, in record_once_thread

                                                programme = cursor.execute('SELECT channelid, title, sub_title, start AS "start [TIMESTAMP]", stop AS "stop [TIMESTAMP]", date, description, episode, categories FROM programmes WHERE uid=? LIMIT 1', (programmeid, )).fetchone()

Ok, i'll try later. ATM i'm not at home.
What do you think of this error?
