Can't see PVR Simple Client IPTV lists on Kodi?

If installing PVR Simple Client still fails to view channels, it is likely for the following reasons:

  1. When the list is not reflected in the TV section, it is probably because is not working. To fix it, try another link.
  2. Sometimes changes are not reflected in the portal after installation is complete. Try activating and deactivating the addon or restart Kodi.
  3. If you copied the URL from the list manually and you can't see the channels, check that the URL has been written correctly, respecting the periods and capital letters.
  4. If you have problems with buffering, try an IPTV list with sd channels. It also serves as a solution, test your internet connection or improve it. A good internet speed to play channels is at least 10 MB.
  5. Si IPTV list is recognized but channels are not playing, the problem may be caused by the Kodi User Agent. To solve it, go to the configuration options of PVR SimpleClient and place the User Agent in the corresponding box.

An example of User Agent is this: Mozilla / 5.0 (X11; CrOS x86_64 11895.118.0) AppleWebKit / 537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome / 74.0.3729.159 Safari / 537.36
