Sorry for bringing my thread to the surface again, but I need your help.

When you showed me the kodiprop parameters, I entered these lines to every single channel on my m3u, because all of them are hls streams.

Code:

#KODIPROP:inputstream=inputstream.adaptive
#KODIPROP:inputstream.adaptive.manifest_type=hls

What I wanted to achive was this, but, tbh, I have noticed no difference.

Fast forward to today, the broken .mpd stream I mention above is now an .m3u8 and it switched to widevine decryption (the browser asks to install widevine when watching the stream via its page). I do not want instructions on that, but I remember there was a wiki page for iptv simple or inputstream adaptive that listed ALL the options an m3u file can have, e.g the extinf part, the kodiprop part, the logos and so on. Do you know where I can find that page?

I’m not sure about that page but the adaptive GitHub would be a good place to start I’d say.

Sorry for resurrecting this again, but I am out of ideas an I need some help. I have all my logos inside /storage/picons/, all of them are 400*400 png files and they are all visible as pictures from the file manager, i.e. none is different than the rest or missing or corrupted. I have also set the right folder path in the settings.

Code:

# ls picons/
alpha.png       ert2.png        mega.png        star.png
ant1.png        ert3.png        openbeyond.png  tvh
ert1.png        makedonia.png   skai.png        vdr

# cat .kodi/userdata/addon_data/pvr.iptvsimple/settings.xml | grep -i logopath
    <setting id="logoPath">/storage/picons/</setting>
    <setting id="logoPathType">1</setting>

This is how every extinf line looks in my m3u (regular file stored locally, not online url). I do see the right logo, the right epg and the right name for all...

Code:

#EXTINF:-1 tvg-id="skai" tvg-logo="skai.png",SKAI

...except for these 2 where the logos do not show up at all and I get the generic tv icon. Any ideas why?

Code:

#EXTINF:-1 tvg-id="open" tvg-logo="openbeyond.png",OPEN
#EXTINF:-1 tvg-id="mtv" tvg-logo="makedonia.png",MAKTV

You can try clearing the cache for thumbnails and see if they reload:

Kill me! Good idea though, I may try it... one day.
I stopped cleaning the cache, even via texturecache.py, a few years ago when I realised how long it takes to redownload all the thumbnails etc for the dozens of videos I had in favorites. Now I have hundreds! Maybe there is a switch of texturecache.py that queries the db file and deletes only the needed ones.

[jim_p]

Aaalmost did it. Texturecache does have a search function, so I tried it

Code:

# texturecache.py s picons

And then I tried deleting them, both through texturecache and the regular file too

Code:

# texturecache.py d 170413 259217

# rm -v .kodi/userdata/Thumbnails/7/7ae06db4.jpg
removed '.kodi/userdata/Thumbnails/7/7ae06db4.jpg'

# rm -v .kodi/userdata/Thumbnails/6/68903b19.png
removed '.kodi/userdata/Thumbnails/6/68903b19.png'

I restarted kodi and they still do not show up. It was worth the try though.
