Expose M3U/XMLTV to other apps

[Mark-McG]

You need to open a bash shell into your Docker and copy it from there.

What would the command be? I can access the console for the container via unraid.

docker exec -u 0 -it nextpvr /bin/bash

Kind of lazy not doing an Internet search before posting.

apologies I am not meaning to be lazy, I think we are reaching the limit of my knowledge a bit here.

I was googling how to add a dll to docker container but the results were very confusing. Might be best we leave it there I don't want to cause any hassle.

I think you can do something like this:

docker cp NShared.dll "containername":/app/NShared.dll

Yes updating a Docker takes skill and there are many way to run Docker You wouldn't find anything about updating a dll other thank NextPVR files anyway starting search this forum might help.

when you start the console can you run the command I gave you? If not maybe you are in the bash shell already, type ls and see. Then follow the steps here https://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.ph...light=bash

Sub's way should work too if you are outside the container, not sure what unraid is doing.

Thank you that has worked! Managed to understand your instructions and xTeVe is now successfully reading the xml file

Sorry I struggled to follow at first this is very new to me. Will that tweak remain after updates etc?

[sub]

Yes, I'll leave that way for future release (unless anyone points out a problem)

[mvallevand]

Technically this is a serious limitation with xTeVe https://github.com/xteve-project/xTeVe/issues/115 and some other golang programs that aren't properly coded.

I agree. It's just a dumb limitation of xTeVe

apologies to keep reviving this old thread but the subject matter remains the same.

I am exporting my m3u/epg into Channels DVR (interface is good for kids etc), but I notice it is only picking up 2 days of epg vs the full schedules direct 7 day I am putting into NextPVR, Is this by design when exporting xmtv?
