How to set up pvr.stalker with NFPS and have a Full EPG

[devnull1970]

It may be hard to find in the discussion, but the loss of the US channel EPG is due to the free source drying up... corporate decision by MFST. Keep an eye in the xmltv thread in Kodi Files as that's where we should be discussing it, rather than in the tutorial area.

Ah, okay. I will have a look there. Thank you.

I'm getting Stalker Client can't load channels?

[crawlers1977]

theres been a little change in the way the pvr is loading i think i too got the error 1st time today in a long time manually change the time in the "connection_timeout" mine got auto reset to 0 and ive only needed to do it 1 time and all channels load up

[PBCanindia]

Hi Dara and Mephasor, I tried with the suggestions but not sure I'm getting the same error as show below

by looking this message, it looks like configuration is proper but server is looking for some Device ID and it conflicts (not sure if it has something to do with my existing DreamLink Satellite - box)

Please suggest me!!!


17:08:12 T:7268 ERROR: AddOnLog: Stalker Client: SData::LoadProfile: status=1 | msg=device conflict - device_id mismatch | block_msg=Please contact your provider<br>to register this device.


In the configuration make sure you are using (and have linked) a 79 as your third MAC number. Also enter your donation number as username and PW I think???
There is this video that shows it all: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=721DvURZHOc made by one of the forum users.

EDIT: Oh, and don't forget the "disable live tv -> clear data -> restart kodi -> enable tv" process every time you change something in the PVR.

Hi I have installed the update for PVR Stalker and followed the instructions to configure it by entering my paid mac address, set the server to Http://11.iptvprivateserver.tv, the guide preference to "Prefer XML TV", and set the Remote URL to http://is.gd/NFPSE. I enabled TV and rebooted Kodi. The PVR manager startup appears in the top right of the screen then a message pops up at the bottom right saying, "Stalker Client" Unable to load channels. I am using Kodi Isengard on an Android Mk809V. Any suggestions would by greatly appreciated.

There was a change this morning that requests Kodi and Emulators to use 00:1A:78 as the prefix. Make sure it matches in PVR Stalker as well as properly linked to your donation.

Did you follow the directions and suggestions in post 1 of the thread?

[PBCanindia]

Thanks Dara, I will link this new mac and try this out
Thanks for your prompt reply.

[romulus86]

I am getting the same error message, and I've followed the instructions using the 78 MAC which is tied to my donation and the donation code for username and password.
I've tried it in KODY 15 and 15.1, windows 10.

[Scholly]

Did you follow the directions and suggestions in post 1 of the thread?

Yes I followed the instructions from post 1

I downloaded and installed PVR Stalker 0.8.3 (for Android)
Under configuration:
I added my donation mac address (which is working in the addon)
The server address is http://11.iptvprivateserver.tv
Guide preference is "Prefer XTML"
Scope is "Remote URL"
Remote URL is "http://is.gd/NFPSE

I have not filled in any other sections althought I would like to change the Time Zone to Pacific/Auckland

[mephasor]

There is no need to change the time zone, the EPG should still be working correctly. Did you change the timeout settings? I think it is set to 60 per default. When I had problems, the timeout happened immediately without any delay. I changed it down to 15 and the loading process took some time, but started working.

Also the EPG is not up to date at the moment, but that is something you can work on fixing once you see channels.

[BearcatQB]

Wanted to see if I could get some help. Little background I have been using Kodi and am very experienced in plugins and setups. I have been using ivue and iptv stalker for around a month and decided to make a donation today. I have since removed iptv stalker and followed the directions above several times. I have verified my mac address is good and uninstalled and reinstalled pvr stalker several times to make sure the installation is good. I got the channels to load one time and since have been unsuccessful as it says " Stalker Client unable to load channels" I am currently on a pc but will be setting this up to work on several fire tv's at home. I wanted to verify it works successfully before making several more donations and setting it up for my family to use. Please any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I have been reading the forum and searching google for nearly 6 hours now and no matter what I try it fails. Please help!

[BearcatQB]

As a follow up to my question I got the simple pvr working the first time but the stalker pvr still isn't working. The service is great just wish a better EPG option was available.

have you tried clearing the data in the EPG?, first turn live TV off, then back on after you cleared the data in the epg, do this a couple of times

[BearcatQB]

I have let me try this again and I will report back.

[dara]

Just been helping another member with a similar issue. Hopefully it won't be an provisioning issue, but its possible. See this thread

http://iptvtalk.net/showthread.php?6414-iptv-stalker-and-pvr-stalker

Even though you did get IPTV Stalker to work, it doesn't necessarily mean that you are properly linked at the server, and there isn't much we can do as users, other than to make small changes to the MAC. Even if the donation page accepts your mac, it has accepted known bad MACs in the past.

[Roach46]

it will work, just a matter of fiddling around, my epg works fine had trouble with my stalker addon, worked fine on my ipad, not on the android, so after a week or so of fiddleing with the android, I noticed I was missing 2 digits in the mac #, LOL, hours of my life I`ll never get back, simple case of, you look but you dont see

[dara]

EPG is in flux as well. See the xmltv EPG Grabber thread for the reason why... near the end of it.

[BearcatQB]

I have tried this again several times. The popup says PVR manager is starting up loading channels from clients and hangs for the 60 seconds. Then it times out and says " Stalker Client Unable To Load Channels"

[Roach46]

I have tried this again several times. The popup says PVR manager is starting up loading channels from clients and hangs for the 60 seconds. Then it times out and says " Stalker Client Unable To Load Channels"

you`ll have to download the modified stalker client and increase the time out to 60, also on this site there`s a way to even modify that and extend it even more, you might try putting on one of your android devices, if it work there then you know its something on your PC, but dont run both devices with the same donation # at the same time, also i`d try the TV on and off again, and clearing data

[BearcatQB]

I have done that I will try on my Fire TV this evening. Thank You!

[BearcatQB]

I know Microsoft has stopped support. Here's to hoping someone gets a nice solution soon! Thanks!

[BearcatQB]

Alright I promised an update and after trying everything I have a solution. Apparently it wasn't loading due to something in the cache of Kodi preventing it. I wiped Kodi completely, updated to 15.1 fresh install, Now Stalker and the EPG and PVR are both working! I will do the same on all my other boxes. Service is wonderful we will continue supporting in the future!

[pedrer]

Hello, i am user of private service for IPTV NFPS... since two days i dont see the EPG info of the channels Latins ...... some solution ?

The free sources for EPG data dried up because Microsoft abandoned it. See the xmltv EPG Grabber topic for more info on that, but hopefully they will be back soon.

[-SONIC-]

I done everything and still it says Stalker Client can't load channels?

[BearcatQB]

I never have been able to get it to run on a PC but it runs fine on my Fire TV Boxes. From reading all the forums sounds like it may be a Windows PC problem?

[dara]

No issues on my PC or Android box.

[BearcatQB]

Are you running Windows 10 and Kodi 15.1?

[dara]

Are you running Windows 10 and Kodi 15.1?

Yes, I am.

[BearcatQB]

I'm very stumped then. Like I said I am a Network Admin with years of Kodi Experience. I have the pvr stalker and iptv stalker running flawlessly on all my fire tv's and have spent 3 days on the windows machine and am ready to concede defeat. I have read every article wiped out and started over and cannot get it to work. I've wiped the folders, settings, changed everything hundreds of time and always get the channels failed to load at the end. Dunno

[PBCanindia]

Thanks Dara, Just to update you that my Stalker Client is working fine after changing mac address to 78.

Thanks for the quick support and suggestion.

[earldev1]

The protocol type isn't required. See the picture.

Guys i got my donation today from iks66 set up stalker addon, but cannot get the pvr stalker client to load live channels. Really need some help.

What seems to be the issue if you don't mind me asking? I read your earlier post and you mentioned it was working? Bear in mind that there are two methods to getting NFPS on Kodi:

Method 1: Using just the Stalker PVR client/addon (this thread)
Method 2: Using the IPTV Simple Client PVR addon in conjunction with the IPTV Stalker video add-on. - (Tutorial (http://iptvtalk.net/showthread.php?2850-HOWTO-Integrate-EPG-into-PVR-IPTV-Simple-Client-using-IPTV-Stalker-and-I-Vue-TV-Data))

[BearcatQB]

If you read back at my previous posts you will see. I would retype it but it's quite a bit. Basically it's working fine on all of my fire tvs but not on my Windows machine. If you have any ideas after reading everything please advise Thanks!

[BearcatQB]

And to clarify iptv stalker is working fine on the pc it's the PVR that won't connect to the channels

[Comatose]

Hey all, quick question here. I dont have an account (haven't donated anything yet), but i want evaluate the quality of the streams. Is this possible? I've been struggling with getting the stalker pvr client to load any channels, but is this because i dont have a proper paid-associated mac address?

Second question, which may be offtopic, but assuming i do go ahead and get a paid mac, how many devices can i use this with?

thanks in advance!

Take a look at the stickies in the PRIVATE SERVER - NFPS forum, and my signature. Quality is 'good enough', and you won't be able to use the PVR Stalker without a paid donation. A linked mac can be used with more than one device, just can't use them simultaneously...and you are right...it was off topic.

[BearcatQB]

FYI to everyone who read my posts before. I was able to fix my PVR Stalker in Windows by removing the http:// before the 11.iptvrocket.tv Not sure why but the minute I removed it cleared the guide and tv information and enabled the pvr it loaded immediately and has been working great ever since!

[edmackay]

I have tried this about fifty times and no go. As soon as i enable tv it starts pvr manager an i get a message tha "stalker cannot load channels." any ideas

That URL (is.gd) is old. For a while, it redirected you to the new address. Since then, a new authorization process has been implemented. Note the new URL to be used in the first post in this thread.

http://iptvtalk.net/showthread.php?7332-EPG-NINJA-by-The-Clairvoyants

Everything must be included in the URL, including the "words" EPG, mac, donation and fname.

Take care...

[dtizme]

does the stalker client nfps not work on 15.2? using windows here. I haven't been able to have any luck.

[dara]

It works. Start your own thread if you need help with it, as this thread pertains to the pvr.stalker, not the pvr.stalker.nfps

[jv0099]

Hi All,
I'm on Kodi 15.2 with IPTV Stalker add on, and I keep get auth failed? How can I fix this? Can I still use stalker or I need to switch?

[jv0099]

Guys Mine still works I had to change mac address and reboot kodi, is this going to last or will i need the new NFS PVR client?

[dara]

This built in version will continue to work, as long as your settings are correct. In Kodi 16, you will need to change the portal URLs, as "redirect" will not work there, but don't worry about that until there is a real need to update to Kodi 16.

4. If you have not linked a MAC to your donation yet, go Here (http://www.hellion.org.uk/cgi-bin/randmac.pl?scope=global&oui=00%3A1A%3A78&type=multicast) to Generate a random one. Then link it to your donation HERE (https://papiao.is/main/search_nfps)- do not post this MAC on forums, treat it like a login/password.
Sorry if this has been asked before but if I use a random MAC, someone else may already have it or in the future can get the same one as me so how can I stop this from happening? Can I not use the actual MAC address of my network card on my computer?

[romulus86]

Hello, I just upgraded to Jarvis beta 4 on Windows 10, and cannot get either the Stalker Client 1.0.1 (error message: failed to connect to server) or the Stalker Client NFPS 0.97 (addon fails to load) to work.
Suggestions are appreciated.

[Blackbear199]

i suggest you post what you did so far...settings,ect.
one thing I can tell you is with kodi 16 it does not handle redirects so 11.iptvprivateserver.tv does not work.
you need to use this for the server url
http://portal.iptvprivateserver.tv/stalker_portal/c/index.html

[romulus86]

Thank you, changing the server url did the trick.

You can use whatever you want for the MAC, including your network card just as long as the first 6 digits are the required - 00:1A:78

Okay, it is the Serial number as well that you send that helps but how do I check to see if my MAC is already in use? Why I ask is because what if I do use my original MAC last six digits or what ever but the generator has actually already picked that same number for someone else.
Every time I generate a MAC and test it I get;

Mac Address Status

Invalid MAC provided, please verify and try again.

I don't know what to tell you about the generator since I have never used it. I simply picked my own MAC. At first I was using my network card's MAC and then since I had to change it several times I just switched to a date that is significant to me. The MAC is just numbers so I wouldn't over-think it too much.

Just go to the donation checker site (whichever is relevant in your case) and select 'change MAC' and then enter what you want. If the MAC had already been assigned you will get a response that indicates that. If that's the case, simply pick another number. Easy peasy.

if i go to channels they are all the but if i go to guide it skips a lot of channels

Thanks and like always awesome job!!!!

[psycon]

should be good now, typo in a code change earlier.. you may have to clear data and restart kodi.. some of the english channels have been having issues on the 24 hour pull as well.. still looking into that, may resolve itself within 24 hours if i think i found the reason... the 3 day pull seems to be unaffected for some reason so use that for now.

[iptv.dallas]

Psycon - thanks for the quick response. Deleted Data, set to 3day, restarted and I get "unable to load guide" error and still missing channels...


1340

[psycon]

im confused.. everything looks fine in your screenshot... you may be bannned for an hour form the server for trying too often.... shut kodi down for an hour and let things reset

[iptv.dallas]

the screen shot shows guide but if you look closely it skips... starts at 5 jumps to 18 then 21 and 22, then 38, 72, 97, 107.... it keeps going up but still skipping channels in between. But if I go to the channels tab everything is there.... in the meantime I will shut it down for an hour... I have a reseller account so I can go in and reset IPTV Mac if needed but I'm sure that is not the issue... I personally think its just me.... I haven't seen anyone else report the same issues unless its just to early???

[psycon]

go to settings >TV> clear data before you close kodi for an hour.

Try going to System>TV>Guide & disabling (so as blue light is off) Hide No Information Labels. It's enabled by default in Kodi so guide won't show channels that have no guide info.

[iptv.dallas]

Thank you Eureka,

I had not checked that but unfortunately that did not work for me either... I've even done a fresh install and no complete guide. Does your guide show channel 28 (USA) or 29 (TVLAND)???? Mine is missing at least 2/3 of the channels, but I don't know if its only me or is it everyone?

Yes they appear on my guide, it does but as I have Use Channel Numbers From Backend enabled they are on channel 105 & 106.

Are you sure that you don't actually have them but are looking in the wrong location?

If you go to System>TV>General & enable Use Channel Order From Backend & also Use Channel Numbers From Backend you should see them on Ch105 & 106.

you dont need to set time zone.. just leave it as kiev

ios is the forgotten bastard child. Looks like you're stuck with upgrading to Kodi 15 if you don't have it already, and filling in the included pvr stalker client. There's a stickied thread show you how to do it:


http://iptvtalk.net/showthread.php?6570-Setting-up-PVR-Stalker-%28Kodi-Built-in%29&p=51883&viewfull=1#post51883

You won't need to use an addon tv guide doing it that way however, which is a bonus.

Hi guys,

New to IPTV Stalker. I've downloaded and loaded the ********** win32 addon into Kodi 15.1. I'm struggling to get past the login stages. I have my donation already. I've got NFPS donation and have tried using the following portal: http://portal.iptvprivateserver.tv/stalker_portal/c/

When I've put in all my details as described in the OP I always get Unable to load channels and then Authentication failed. retrying

Any help would be appreciated. I've tried everything I could think of to get this working.

for kodi 15 11.iptvprivateserver.tv should be used.the one your using it for kodi 16.
when you change your mac and enable live tv the first time it always fails to load,disable/enable live tv again and it usually loads the 2nd time if your settings are correct.
....so always try to load the channels twice when you change something.
the only thing you absolutely need right to load the channels is your mac,server url and serial number.worry about the epg after you get past that.

[Deana3333]

Is there a fix for the can not load addon can not load DII or could someone help me I've been out of tv for like 2 weeks now just really wish one could help me with this or could where I could find some help for this I really would appreciate it....

[psycon]

there is if you are on a rooted device.. look in the stickies..
if not, the fix is to use the version of pvr.stalker that is built into kodi..

Root: Rooting means you have root access to your device—that is, it can run the sudo command, and has enhanced privileges allowing it to run apps like Wireless Tether or SetCPU. You can root either by installing the Superuser application or by flashing a custom ROM that includes root access.

so for kodi 15 just type 11.iptvprivateserver.tv or put in http:// in front of it ?and what about filling out thebottom like device id and all the other stuff on the bottom thamk

[Blackbear199]

with or without the http:// it should work.
the only thing that is needed at the bottom is the serial number,max 13 digits.
the device id's and signature can be added for added security if you choose (min 4 digits,max 6-8 or so).
leave token blank either way.

[esco2g]

Do you have to use your donation number for the guide to work? how do you protect your donation number or do you get multiple donation numbers as a reseller? is there another option for a full guide that doesn't require a donation number ? :confused: Thanks!

[Blackbear199]

the donation number is required if you want to use the ********** guide data.
you can set guide preference to provider only and you will get whatever nfps offers for epg.if may not be as detailed or have epg for all the channels.
as last resort you could goto ********** website and view the epg online.only north america timezones are covered.

Need some advice here as read so many posts and tried so many pvr's.

Got a simple Android box. Running version 15.2. Have paid donation iptv stalker, version 1.0.18. Works fine on its own.
Had it linked to Ivue by saving channels as favourites, worked fine until Ivue understandably pulled the plug.

I also have tried simple client, stalker client and stalker client nfps. Which one is the best and most reliable to use for a working epg?

I cannot get any working. I either get authorization fail or device mismatch. Actually I can load the channels into simple client but I want an epg guide. My dad needs it, he is old. I have followed so many instructions, changed mac address, cleared caches etc... But no joy. I'm so close I can almost hear Antiques Road Show.

Any advice or thread to the most up to date source/pvr would be much appreciated.

There seems to be many a change a foot. Thanks

[Buster]

Need help myself got a paid donation installed stalker client NFPS put my mac address in and donation number and keep device ID mismatch.

Any help would be appreciated

[zdcyclops]

Are the attached thumb nails of the right PVR client ?

[zdcyclops]

I installed Stalker Client NFPS 0.8.4 and after a couple of clear data and turning live tv on and off I got the channels and the guide to load but the guide only shows the name of the program no info and yes it is set to 72 hr xmltv. I tried Stalker Client NFPS on Jarvis Beta 5 and it would not install. I love the service when it works. The support for users could do with some improvement. It would be nice to know why our setups that have worked well for months stopped and even nicer to know what to do to restore them.

Is the first post on this thread still relevant? Can't get channels to load, device mismatch or just unable to load channels.

Any help

[zdcyclops]

Started over again on Isengard 15.2. uninstalled 15.2, deleted Kodi app data folder(Win 7) used regedit to search/delete all kodi references. reinstalled 15.2 and Stalker NFPS. changed MAC on the PC set up Stalker, linked new MAC. Then I enabled stalker and cleared TV data and turned Live TV on. Loads channels but I get Unable to load guide. I followed the same procedure with Kodi 16.beta 5 and got the same results. Is the Stalker NFPS client supposed to install already enabled? It does and the other Stalker PVR doesen't. I am sure that I followed all steps correctly I can watch TV just no guide data. I assume the problem is on the server end and I will have to wait. WWWAAAAA!!! I WANT MY GUIDE LOL..

use the stalker client the comes installed in kodi 15.2 and follow the info in post one

I'm so close, anyone suggest what I'm missing? Thanks

Final update.

Uninstalled Kodi, started afresh. Changed MAC. reinstalled everything. Only bloody worked. Simple client nfps. Guide good, channels good, logos good. Thanks for the help

I bought the AMFTV 4K and loaded with Kodi 15.2 and side loaded EPG by Clairvoyant. I loaded the one for 15.0 ++ but when attempting to load the zip file I am getting an error that it could not load. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

I setup stalker client nfps on windows kodi 15.2 works great,tried seting up on a android tablet 15.2 as well,but get a dll error.Any fix for this,tried both android versions of stalker client nfps.

[DarkSide]

just use the stalker client that comes installed on kodi 15.2 and dont worry about installing the nfps version

[spinnersp]

tried that but keep getting,cant load channels

[ilan]

You need to fully and correctly configure PVR Stalker Client. Follow the recommendations I made in the second post on the following page...

http://iptvtalk.net/showthread.php?12631-A-question-i-need-answered/page5

[spinnersp]

ok,so I dont get it.I configured as per your instructions.On the pc it works,but stil cant load channels on tablet.Yes I did disable on pc before setting up tablet.Have checked settings all seem to be correct.will check again for errors.would I need a new mac after using pc?

[abzlad]

I was having the same problem "not loading channels" "device mismatch" so I changed my MAC address. Totally uninstalled kodi and started fresh. I didn't use the new Mac until I reinstalled kodi and used the simple client nfps. Entered my new Mac, well last three set of numbers, entered my donation number and set to iptv66. That is where my donation was. Then enabled.

I also use the beast build, had to remove iptv stalker itself.

I think the fresh installed wiped some data somewhere that allowed simple client nfps to work. When I enabled tv the first time after doing the above I got an error then it worked fine.

Hope this helps

[ilan]

All the credentials are exactly the same on the tablet? Remember, the slightest difference could throw things off.

You could always try changing the MAC on the tablet to see what happens. Follow the instructions to the T but this time for the tablet.

[spinnersp]

No matter what I do,I cant get it to load channels.Checked and double checked,then checked again.All my settings are identical(uppercase/lowercase) on both pc and tablet(Samsung Galaxy Tab® 4 10.1).Also Tried different serial,id1,id2 and sig,uninstalled/reinstalled KODI.to no avail.With all this checking,I noticed two different spellings of "papiao".

Advanced Alternative setup: for use with version of Stalker that is included with Kodi only. If you dont know what your doing.. dont use this method. install pvr.stalker.nfps instead. Do not ask for support for the advanced method in this thread

Set your EPG remote URL to hxxps://papiao.tv/main/EPG/mac/00:1A:78:XX:XX:XX/donation/XXXXXXXXX/fname/NFPSF1

Leave all the value headers in the URL (do not remove the words mac, donation, or fname leave them there, only change the X's)
Replace all the XX's with your Mac or Donation
NFPSF1=24 hour, title only. (use this on fire tv stick or other low ram devices)
NFPSF2=24 hour title only offset one hour, for those having issues.
NFPSF3=72 hour with details
NFPSF4=72hour with details offset one hour, for those having issues.

For IPTV66, replace "papiao" with IKS66

its PAPIAO.TV both do not work.. you must spell it correctly.. but that has nothing to do with channels loading, its jsut for the EPG... if your channels are not loading, check your mac, check your donation.. if they are correct and it still doesnt work, change your mac to something new.

Thanks ended up changing mac,seems to have done the trick.

[Jayloco]

I can't seem to find this information anywhere on any thread. I apologize if it has been asked before. For some reason my MAC address keeps changing on it's own? I have my EPG set up (and working) with the built in stalker client PVR on kodi 15.2. It will randomly stop working, when I check my donation on papavio.tv my mac address shows up as a new totally different number. I switch it and it works again.... repetitive cycle...... Did someone possibly gain access to my donation number?!

[Blackbear199]

looks like it.did u buy from reseller or direct from papiao?
i wud email them and explain the situation and request a new donation number.

EPG has been working perfectly (thumbs up, BTW!) except for one thing which will be the subject of another post as soon as I figure out where to post a feature request. BUT..

Saturday evening I suddenly had no guide program listings, only the channel names and logos. Looking more closely, I noticed that the timeframe listed was from midnight Friday to 10:30am Saturday & would not go later; also if I rolled it back to earlier Friday it would show the program listings. (computer/kodi time shown was still correct.)

I deleted the guide file, restarted, reenabled, deleted and reinstalled the latest pvr, etc with no effect until I toggled the XMLTV File setting from 72 hours to 24 and back again. Then, restarting pvr.stalker.nfps gave me the program names again but no program details/descriptions. Nothing I've been able to do since has brought back the descriptions. I've reloaded the guide data so many times after changing something that I'm beginning to worry about getting banned. :)

[Blackbear199]

no idea what your problem is but i can tell you the program descriptions are there for the 72 hr epg.
i just loaded it but i dont use the nfps version,i prefer the non nfps version.

[ilan]

I have had the guide do pretty much what you're describing, but only occasionally. At the moment, my 72 hr guide is fully populated. Like Blackbear, I'm not using the nfps version.

Oh, I am sure it's something on my end. After fooling with it for little while I checked the web guide at ********** to make sure they hadn't just lost the feed or some such thing and it was reloading an empty guide but it was fine. Problem is that at this point I don't know what else to try.

[Blackbear199]

disable live tv and clear the data under guide and general.
delete the cache_xmltv.xml in userdata...
in userdata/database delete the epg.db and tv.db files.there could be more that 1 file epg10.db,ect.same for tv.tv29.db,delete any that start with epg or tv with the .db file extension.
srart kodi and enable live tv.
that should delete possible corupt file,if that dont fix it i dont know what will.

Thanks for the reply; too bad though, that suggests that it's not stalker client causing it.

[ilan]

You tried Blackbear's last recommendations? I was hoping it might hit the spot...

When I had a similar (or somewhat similar) situation, clearing data in general and guide with a restart usually got me back in business.

If the issue doesn't clear up, you might try setting up the pvr stalker client native to Kodi to see how it fares.
