Kodi related question

Is there any way to use this playlist in Kodi? Ive successfully got the epg loaded in the Kodi addon MTV Guide, but is there a url for the channels/playlist? Or any possibility that a Kodi addon could be made for it? Can a Kodi addon be made to run this playlist url generator?

I used to test ustvgo-iptv in kodi with addon PVR IPTV Simple Client, it supports TV Guide.

Yea, but how do yo run it in Kodi? Dont you need to first run the ustvgo-iptv on a PC or linux first to get the link? Or is there a way to run ustvgo-iptv within Kodi. Trying to set this up on a firestick for my parents that dont have a PC.

i have ustvgo ran from my house server so i link to that via internal ip
but u can run https://github.com/benmoose39/ustvgo_to_m3u it will create the ip url that you need to put into Kodi to bring up USTVGO

@JayDee696969 As @nater1983 said many people simply run docker on standalone server and feed playlist
http://<SERVER_IP>:6363/ustvgo.m3u8 and tvguide http://<SERVER_IP>:6363/tvguide.xml.gz to any of your players.

In your case with firestick kodi addon would be more convenient way of running ustvgo-iptv and you wouldn't need any server. I'll think about writing small addon for kodi.

hi iam new to all this is there a way to turn the ustvgo exe into an apk to install and run it on android box seems to have to be running to work unless there is something iam missing in all the files ?

@clips519, I don't know why you need this, but you can install termux, then install python with temux pkg install python, then install ustvgo-iptv with pip install ustvgo-iptv and run it with ustvgo-iptv command.

im running the ustvgo server it creates a ustvgo.m3u8 url just put that into kodi's iptv simple client addon it also supports epg.xml that is also hosted by the ustvgo server but for some reason it doesnt work that great for me not sure why it could be the vpn speeds are too slow or that its too many hops and the latency is low I even created a webpage that connects to the program and is password protected with many other feeds which all work great but when it comes to ustvgo feeds they take forever to load they are not instant if I use the direct links from ustvgo in my m3u8 file the feeds are quicker but not instant and I would have to create a script that would change the authentication keys in the m3u8 file not sure what is causing slow feeds but it could also be because there feeds are being proxied
