IPTV Smarters EPG Setup: Check Guide Data Separately

Understand where guide data belongs in IPTV Smarters when live channels work but programme information is empty.

Updated

The short answer

First establish whether the playlist includes guide references or whether the service supplied a separate EPG source. Then use the current app’s guide settings and refresh path rather than editing the playlist blindly.

What to check

  1. Test live playback so you know the playlist itself is loading.
  2. Check the setup details for a separate XMLTV or EPG URL and confirm its scope with support if unclear.
  3. Enter the guide source in the app’s EPG area when the current version exposes one.
  4. Refresh the guide and allow the app to complete processing before checking a known channel.

What to record or do next

  • Record whether the guide is empty, delayed, offset, or missing only on selected channels.
  • Use the EPG and Catch-Up guide for the shared concepts and the current app documentation for labels.

Scope note

Menu names and app support vary by device and version. Use the exact setup details supplied for the account, and confirm compatibility in the player or official app documentation.
