If you wish to manually configure the PVR Stalker, the following applies:

Prerequisites:

• PVR Staker is installed, using Kodi 15 and above. This add-on is installed during normal installation
• TV is disabled in Kodi Settings, and Clear Data
• All PVRs are disabled in Kodi Settings > Add-ons > PVR Clients
• Verify your MAC and Server assignment in your donation checker, with your Order Number (if required), and Donation number.
  
  Donation checkers:
  

  NFPS :  https://papiao.is/main/search_nfps
  Rocket:  https://papiao.is/main/search_rocket
  IPTV66:  https://iks66.tv/main/search/

  If you want to use a different MAC than listed, click "Change IPTV Mac Address" and enter the new one in the box and click Submit. If not successful, either pick a new MAC, or try submitting a clear box, then enter the MAC. MACs start with 00:1A:78 and the last six are hexadecimal digits (0-9, A-F) for the supported servers. Otherwise click IPTV Reset.
  

In PVR Stalker configuration:

• On the General Tab, select an Active Portal number... use 1. For Connection Timeout, use 120, or lower.
  
• MAC Address: Enter all six hexadecimal pairs to match the donation checker MAC Colons are required.
  
• Server Address: Enter the IPTV Server that was assigned to your donation. See prerequisites.
  

  NFPS - Replace the * as appropriate (1-5)

• Time Zone: Leave as is. This currently does not affect the epg.
  
• Auth Credentials: Enter your donation/rocket/route number for the Login and Password

Manual Guide Configuration

• For Guide, Select one of the following for Preference: Prefer XMLTV, XMLTV only, Prefer Provider, Provider Only.
  
• Select Cache Guide Data, and set CacheTime (hours) as desired.
  
• If you select an external EPG other than **********, select Remote URL and enter the url for the provider.
  
• If using the **********, select Remote URL and enter this url: http://nfps.**********

Set a custom Serial Number, Device IDs and Signature in Advanced

• The Serial Number, Device IDs and Signature can be a combination of letters or numbers. Use 13 characters for Serial Number, Any length beyond 13 is good for the Device ID. At the minimum, Serial Number and Device ID are required, Device ID2 and Signature are optional. Token is not used.
  
• If you used the epg updater to configure the PVR, and want to use your own custom values, DISABLE "Configure PVR Stalker" and configure the above values with your custom settings. Your custom values could be overwritten if "Configure PVR Stalker" is enabled.

Click OK to save your settings. Click on Enable to enable the client.

In Kodi Settings, Services > TV (or Live TV) > General; Click "Clear data", and "Enabled" to connect.

You channels may or may not load, and the guide should load as well. Exit Kodi and restart.

If you have issues with a load of channels, Clear Data, and Disable/Enable will sometimes correct the issue. Persistance and following directions will get you $Profit$
