Settings PVR |
Live TV |
Main page: PVR
Settings for Live TV and PRV features are found here. Change fullscreen info, manage EPG data settings, etc. Live TV settings also are set in the individual PVR add-on settings that you enabled during PVR setup.
General
Setting | Description | Setting level |
---|---|---|
Enabled | Enable the Personal Video Recorder (PVR) features in XBMC. This requires that at least one PVR add-on is installed. | |
Do not show 'connection lost' warnings | Hide the warning if XBMC lost the connection to the backend (for example: if the backend service died) | |
Synchronize channel groups with backends | Imports channel groups from the backend (if supported by the add-on and backend). Will delete user created groups if they're not found on the backends. | |
Always use the channel order from the backend(s) | Sorts the channels by channel number on the server, but uses XBMC's own numbering for channels. | |
Use backend channels numbers (only works with 1 enabled PVR add-on) | Use numbering from the backend, instead of configuring them manually over XBMC. | |
Channel manager | Opens the channel manager, which allows modifying the channel order, channel name, icon, etc. | |
Search for channels | Instruct the backend to search for channels (if supported by the add-on and backend) | |
Reset the PVR database | Delete channel/epg database and reimport the data from backend afterwards |
Menu/OSD
Setting | Description | Setting level |
---|---|---|
Show channel information when switching channels | shows information about the current programm on this channel | |
|
Automatically hide the channel information that is displayed when switching to another channel in full screen mode | |
|
Time that the information dialog is displayed when switching channels. Defaults to 5 seconds. | |
Close channel OSD after switching channels | Automatically close the channel OSD after selecting a channel in that OSD. | |
Folder with channel icons | Location where the tv logos ( http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=86047 ) are stored | |
Scan for missing icons | Look for missing icons and link icons to channels so they appear in the "Live TV" channel section |
EPG
Setting | Description | Setting level |
---|---|---|

Days to display in the EPG | Number of days of EPG data to import from backends. Defaults to 3 days. | |
EPG update interval | Time between EPG data imports from backends. Defaults to 120 minutes. | |
Default select action | ||
Prevent EPG updates during playback | Do not import EPG data while playing TV, to minimise CPU usage. | |
Do not store the EPG in the database | EPG data is stored in a local database by default, to speed up EPG importing when XBMC is restarted. Enabling this option will prevent that. | |
Do not show 'no information available' labels | Hides "no information available" labels when no EPG data could be retrieved for a channel. | |
Reset the EPG database | Delete the EPG database in xbmc and reimport the data afterwards from the backend |
