Loading the Guide

[jcole998]

I've managed to get Raspbian Kodi Knewc add-on connected to the V5 desktop Windows server. When I select TV Guide on the Pi, it takes 8 minutes to finally display the grid. Granted, I'm loading about 300 channels, but I can't seem to get Knewc to restrict the download to the Favorites-HD group of 28 HD channels even though the settings shows that group as being selected.

I'm hoping that the attached logs will provide the information you need. Have I missed a step or setting? Kodi.log is included in the zip file. TOD is about 1pm.

Thanks.

Hi @JohnC the ability to choose anything other than All Channes was lost when NEWA was taken out because that was a server side think out of v5 but I did put it back in an alpha release that I haven't had time to release yet. It is on github if you want to have a look

For that many channels especially on an RPi I would use UI client mode and let the server do the work.

OK. Now that I have a good connection, I can try the UI client.

I am a little puzzled: I am using the Knewc 2.7.4 add-on. Are suggesting I try the later version of XNEWA?

Thanks for the suggestion.

No x-newa is EOL but the repo I started on github is still named X_NEWA. knewc works with NextPVR v4 with UJB's JSON and v5 with sub's JSON and there are some differences.
