[RELEASE] DStv Now KODI Add-on

[Gerritmosscpt]

Had the same issue about half an hour ago. Just tried it now and it is working again.

Jip was just temp it seems like. All good

 

[JeremySly]

small update with 0.15.8

By default, the EPG it generates will always now be the ZA cached EPG.
If you want a non-za EPG, then disable "Use online cached ZA EPG" under settings > Live TV & EPG.
Its default is enabled.

Nearly all users should not need to do anything

VPN Users - Please can you PM what VPNs you can for watching DSTV.

Thank you muchly

Been having issues pass few days. Majority of my dstv channels disappeared. I logged out and log back in same issue.

Reinstalled dstv now from slyguy, same issue.

Reinstalled kodi, same issue

Even tried it on my mobile and got the same issue.

Generally i watch all the supersport channels but they're all gone. Mostly super sport 3

Any suggestions to address this?

Screen shot attached

Tested on skyworth tvbox and samsung s21

Does all the channels show when you log on online? (browser)

I mean when you log in on a BROWSER ... like Firefox or Chrome

Im using kodi on a android device

Im using kodi on a android device

YES, I know ... BUT log in on a pc and see if you get all the channels ... if you do, the problem is with the addon/kodi ....

If you don't however (which if think it will be) ... then you need to phone DSTV to reset your profile ....

seriously now, I'm not drawing pictures

Try it out on chrome and Firefox. Same issue

edit - is dstv now counting the browser towards the streaming limit?

Same, don't think it is a browser limit issue.

 

[elf_lord_ZC5]

Same, don't think it is a browser limit issue.

DSTV changed some thing again, probably.

 

[Dimpie (JIGSAW)]

Try it out on chrome and Firefox. Same issue

Then, like I said, You need to phone DSTV ... something is wrong with your account/profile and NOT the add-on

 

[Dimpie (JIGSAW)]

edit - is dstv now counting the browser towards the streaming limit?

They can't ... cause you need to be logged into DSTV on a browser to link your other 4 devices ... so if the browser is detected as a viewing source, how must you add a 4th hardware device

 

[Dimpie (JIGSAW)]

DSTV changed some thing again, probably.

Same error here ... logout/login not fixing the issue as usual.

 

[elf_lord_ZC5]

EISH!!!

Why do Folks have to sukkel so?

 

[Dimpie (JIGSAW)]

Mine is working again ... forced an update on Widevine

 

[milomak]

ah yes i see that a widevine update by kodi has sorted this

 

[joshuatree]

How do one let the original channel numbers show in the TV guide?

Mine shows 1-150 now. I must have unwillingly set something somewhere in IPTV merge.
