Make sure you are running dstv now 0.18.2 and iptv merge 0.27.5 and that dstv now is not already added under epgs

SABC streams are fairly easy to work with no encryption I have them set up in my NextPVR setup. No chunklist needed...

Where's Ole' Frikkie when you need him?
It's posts like this which is going to get the Kodi service shut down.
Can't believe MyBB hasn't yet banned this spammer...

There's nothing DSTV on that crap ... it's a spammer yes, but no scare to his addon

Just a headsup. Not sure what is going on with the EPG but it failed to run the past 2 days, and now when running it manually, a. bunch of stuff is missing.
This is the dstv website missing stuff for 7 and 8 Nov entirely somehow.

You mean the one from https://github.com/tinuva/kodi-files ?
I haven't used it in a long long time, didnt even realise it is still working for at least one url.
So sorry haven't made any updates to it.

this one yes ...
No need to be sorry ... it's yours.
I have ways to get to sports, but was testing yours the other day and it didn't work.
I think it was linked to SportHD but they died looooong ago.
If you not going to fix/add sport, just remove them and call the addon BokTV

Thanks for all your work with this - I assume you connect via the api.
For interest sake, where does https://www.dstv.com/en-za/explore/tv-guide get their data from? Always seems up to date?
