is nice of you, but every future update would have to be tested. You have to install the programming language Go, there are enough tutorials and the rest is on GitHub. 32 bit I will not support, who necessarily needs to build it himself.
@marmei I love Xteve and wanted to ask if you offer any other donation options?
I have one very important question regarding security.
I run Xteve in a windows VM and vpn app connected, then I setup my plex docker on the same unraid server.
I realised without buffer enabled, no download/upload on my windows vm when I start a stream, When I enable buffer I can see a lot of traffic on my windows vm VPN traffic monitor.
My question is, when buffer is not enabled, is the plex server downloading the stream? this means its not behind vpn.
If I use buffer in my setup, will Xteve on the windows vm download and then pass this to plex meaning my vpn app on my windows vm is working?
I really want clarification on this, I want to make sure I am using my VPN and it seems buffer means Xteve is doing the work and just passing this to plex locally.
Donations goes with Bitcoin or Patreon, thank you very much.
The Bitcoin address can be found on GitHub, the link to Github is at the top.
Patreon:
Routing buffer on:
Provider → xTeVe → Plex server → Plex client
Routing buffer off:
Provider → Plex server → Plex client
Thanks @marmei I will join the patreon.
I now have another issue, I added to my filtered channels in xteve then setup my DVR again, it says 232 channels enabled but the live tv section only shows the original 22 channels? I’ve refreshed the guide but it doesn’t chance the number of channels in the guide. Weird?
Thanks.
That is a Plex problem.
Troubleshooting:
Thanks @marmei just joined your patreon.
I just wanted to ask for a future feature if it’s possible, can we specify multiple xml files.
As Plex can only see 480 channels max, other apps can use more such as GSE.
I think being able to build multiple xml’s is useful for other apps other than Plex.
Thank you for your donation.
Export more XML files? That will not work, everything is based on the mapping. You can also use more than 480 channels. You can configure as many filters as you like and map channels. xTeVe exports all active channels, the number does not matter. Another possibility: start a second instance of xTeVe (port and configfolder must be changed)
Cool, I was just referring to the log file “[xTeVe] Plex Channel Limit: 480”.
Already heard by some Emby users, they use xTeVe with 500 - 1000 channels.
Hey marmei, great work on the new version. It makes organising and mapping a lot easier. It also fixed the error I was receiving when playing certain streams with the buffer enabled.
However now I have 2 new issues, one is to do with the Nvidia Shield where some streams are taking up to 30 seconds to start. This is on the Shield only, which was actually my fastest device to use with 1.4.4.
The second issue is every now and again on other devices, I’ll get the ‘No Streams Available’ logo when trying to play a second tuner (which I have support for). To fix it I need to restart xTteVe and then it’ll allow 2 tuners again.
Anyone else having these issues?
I’m also having problems with streams taking a long time to start but only on Android devices. It will play a millisecond of video and then freeze for like you say 30 seconds but at times longer.
Are you using Xtream editor? If so, are you using the FREE version?
The huge difference in your channel line-ups (and being below 25) kinda smells like you are only using the free/test version of Xtream editor (which indeed has a 25-channel limit on the export files.) Smells like you have hit the 25-channel limit (and three of those may have been a failed match-up – thus netting you only 22 channels to import into Plex.
(Just a hunch…)
I’m having the “No Streams Available” issue with xteve 2.0. It happens even when using only one stream (I’m authorized for two). I’ve tried setting xteve to 3 streams, but it still won’t record even one. It works for a bit after stopping and restarting xteve, but the problem seems to be getting worse. So, I’m going back to xteve 1.4 for now.
@eelton, @BearVV Take a look at the release notes for v2.0.0 (GitHub) 
The tuner limit can be set separately for each playlist
@BearVV xTeVe has no influence on the clients, if the start of the clients takes longer, it is usually due to the Plex Transcoder

Yep, I had 2 tuners enabled; for some reason it resolved itself after deleting and re-adding the playlist a couple or times.
Anyway, I’m pretty happy being able to use the Buffer with V2 now, it makes the whole experience much smoother. Some channels are still loading faster than others on the Shield and some can take quite a while. You believe its the Plex Transcoder? … Its pretty sporadic.
Regardless, you’ve made things very easy with xTeVe, so thanks a lot.
You can also test this with VLC. Just open the xteve.m3u with VLC

I am having trouble tuning the proper channel. I have a channel specified as 1.4 in XteVe and mapped properly in Plex. It works well and tunes a network affiliate in a specific city. I have another channel 52.4 which is mapped to another affiliate on the same network. The IPTV provider is different for 1.4 and 52.4.
When I tune 52.4, Plex selects 1.4. Is this a Plex issue or an xTeVe issue?
Looking at Plex debugging log, when I select channel 52.4 from the guide, I see Plex issue this “POST /livetv/dvrs/5/channels/1.4/tune (7 live)”.
xTeVe’s log shows:
[xTeVe] Buffer: false
[xTeVe] Channel Name: ********
[xTeVe] Client User-Agent: Lavf/58.9.100
[xTeVe] Streaming URL: http://******
[xTeVe] Streaming Info: URL was passed to the client.
[xTeVe] Streaming Info: xTeVe is no longer involved, the client connects directly to the streaming server.
I suspect the Plex mapping is incorrect, but am unsure where in in the Plex files to verify. The mapping on the DVR setup dialog is correct, but I suspect the database may be corrupt.
I test with m3u directly PMC / m3u with epg xtream editor xmltv and always this error I dont understand
