Jedi Xtreme plugin freezes when selecting Playlists

[doo_dah]

I've installed the Jedi Xtreme plugin on OpenVix on a vu solo+2 box. I've ftp'd the playlists file across but when I select Playlists the box freezes and the spinning icon appear top left. I have to reboot the box. The box works perfectly otherwise. I was unable to find logs to see what the issue is. The URLS in the playlists file work fine - i opened the m3u file using VLC on my laptop.

I've been told I should reimage the box but I can't do this as its my parents box and I can't enter their house. Is there an alternative plugin I can use which uses a playlist or m3u URL?

Thanks.

Is it latest version of jedimakerxtream Version 5.30

It could be the playlist is big and needs time to load.

 

[doo_dah]

Its not the latest - it's this one: enigma2-plugin-extensions-jedimakerxtream_5.28.20191220_all.ipk

The playlist is big but I deleted all but one URL from the file and that also caused the box to freeze

Try this of @dsayers2014
wget --no-check-certificate -O IPTV.sh https://raw.githubusercontent.com/davesayers2014/plugins/Test/iptv.sh && chmod +x IPTV.sh && ./IPTV.sh just add your details when asked

Thanks, but what's the advantage of using this script?

It downloads enigma2-plugin-extensions-jedimakerxtream_5.29.20200129_all.ipk which isn't the latest ipk (v.5.30).

I use 5.29 jedi and sets up fine are you using m3u or username password ect

 

[doo_dah]

Ok - I'll try a newer version and see if it fixes it. I'm using m3u

 

[bazcfc1]

Take the username password server url and port number and don't use m3u

 

[doo_dah]

Ah ok, so I extract these (username password server url and port ) from the URL I got from my provider and use these with your script?

 

[bazcfc1]

Is it a tiny url m3u has provided or full m3u

 

[doo_dah]

This is the format - so full url


http://url.com:80/get.php?username=USERNAME&password=PASSWORD&output=ts&type=m3u_plus

 

[bazcfc1]

I've in boxed you mate with a guide

 

[doo_dah]

Cheers.. appreciate it. I'll try tomorrow .

That is like saying is it semi or fully in the under garments 🤣

 

[pabloescaban]

I've never got a tinyurl to work in jedi
Always had to use the proper m3u url
Or sometimes the actual .m3u file works better on some box/builds

You just make file called playlists.txt and add line in this format
http://xxxxx.xyz:8080/get.php?username=USERNAME&password=PASSWORDtype=m3u_plus&output=m3u8
Then ftp the playlists.txt to /etc/enigma2/jediplaylists folder

you can add extra lines if you have more than one provider.

You can flash the box remotely using teamviewer

He said in post#11 he'd done that and it didn't work

The URLS in the playlists file work fine - i opened the m3u file using VLC on my laptop. I'm thinking he is putting the actual .m3u into playlist.txt file not the one line needed.

 

[pabloescaban]

Either works, you can use the text line http/etc or the actual .m3u file created by VLC

 

[doo_dah]

@urie is right. Like an idiot I was copying the contents of the m3u into the playlists and not the URL

I've now got the box up and running again and my parents have got their channels back!

Thanks for the help everyone
