Prerequisites

For the Epg you need to have the Epg-importer plugin installed – this should be available in most plugin feeds.

Downloading

Download the latest plugin ipk file from here

Installation

There’s a few different ways to install the plugin. SSH/Telnet, FTP

SSH/Telnet
FTP
  • Download the ipk and ftp it to the /tmp folder on the box. N.B. if the config.xml file (see below) is in the /tmp folder it will also be installed if an existing one doesn’t exist
  • Either install it from the box GUI (in OpenVix this will be ‘Menu -> Setup -> ViX -> Install local extension
    or SSH/Telnet to to the box and run

    opkg install /tmp/enigma2 [TAB – to autocomplete path]
  • Reboot the boxreboot
Plugin Install Generator



You can also download a generator that will let you enter your details and generate a one line install command with the plugin preconfigured. Right click on the following link select ‘save link as’ and then save to your PC – generator download. You can then run the generator by opening the downloaded file.

Open your plugins menu, there should now be a plugin named ‘IPTV Bouquet Maker (IPTV for Enigma2 – E2m3u2bouquet plugin)’

Upgrading

If you install over the previous version it should migrate your existing settings and provider to the config file based setup

Configuration



Start the plugin and then select configure to set general options



Select providers to configure providers



Press the green button add a new provider or press ok to edit an existing provider



Enter at least the name and press green to save. For entering long urls instead of using the remote control it is recommended to edit the config file (see below)

Epg

Once a schedule or manual run has been performed the Epg-Importer config will be set-up. Open Epg-Importer, select sources then enable the source(s) listed under ‘IPTV Bouquet Maker – E2m3u2bouquet. You run a manual update in Epg-Importer or set-up a schedule.

Config file

The config file is located in /etc/enigma2/e2m3u2bouquet/config.xml and an example is below. You should be able to edit this file from your ftp client (or download, edit, upload back to box)



FOR PORTALS

Provider url, port, name updates

With the introduction of the config file based setup there is now no need for us to maintain a database of provider details. It’s now up to the provider to manage updates themselves. The provider can do this by setting the <providerupdate> element to the url of a text file. The text file should contain ‘Name,M3UURL,EPGURL’ e.g.
