pvr.vbox addon - negge - 2015-04-28
Starting with Kodi v15 (Isengard) there's a dedicated addon available for owners of VBox TV Gateway devices. This post contains some general notes about it as well as information about how to file bug reports, contribute code and so on.
New features compared to using pvr.iptvsimple:
- supports scheduling/management/playback of recordings
- supports timeshifting (needs to be enabled in the addon settings)
- supports showing signal status
- supports using an external XMLTV file in case the OTA EPG is not enough
Requirements:
You'll need firmware version 2.47 in order to use the addon. The addon will complain and show an error notification if your firmware is too old.
Bug reports:
If you find a bug or have a feature you'd like implemented, open an issue on https://github.com/kodi-pvr/pvr.vbox/issues.
