Channels Missing with Duplicate Names (Different Streams)

Open Stinky-Adam opened this issue 7 months ago • 2 comments

Hi, i have quite a few streams which have s the same names in my playlist, both different streams and sources, but named the same. it seems like Open TV is removing some of these duplicate channels or something. I'll leave some examples below:


What should be in this category (From IPTVEditor) and appears in all other IPTV apps:

What Open TV shows in this category:

The channels which are missing are already in my playlist elsewhere with the same name, but are different streams and have different stream URLs. Something with the way you match streams or something isn't correct.

Hopefully this makes sense and can be looked into, this is the only Windows app which i like (which is why i donated too, and would like to continue in the future)

I've been made aware of this issue and will work on it when I have time. It's a bit complex so do not expect a quick resolution. I am currenly working on w3u and stalker.

Ok thank you. For the meantime, i've renamed my streams in IPTVEditor so non are duplicates. Happy to do some tests if needed when you get around to fixing.
