On DVB-T, PRIME and Te Reo have swapped logical channel numbers. So now PRIME is 15 and Te Reo is 10. So maybe you will find PRIME on the old Te Reo stream on 15 now.

That seems logical and typical of the joke that Freeview has become, they probably swapped places and at the encoder end was never changed for the webstream

are you on Slyguy 0.18.3 version IPTV NZ?

its working fine for me on Kodi 20 after updating the addon

Thanks I tried that but I just get Te Reo on both.

I installed Slyguy as a workaround and yes that works correctly. But I have become increasingly disenchanted with Kodi and I was mainly using Tivimate for streaming Matt's NZAU playlist, though I also had yours installed. Yesterday it all turned messy. The Simple Client guide became completely jumbled and the EPG for Australia stopped working for some reason. However I just checked it and it seems to be coming back. Most Aussie channels are now showing in the guide from around noon. Prime and Te Reo also seem okay. The problems may just have been transitional. It is all very confusing though. I guess the short version is things appear to be slowly coming back to semi-normal. You are right about Freeview being a joke but I do watch ABC and SBS as well as NZ news and I like to have it available.

Might be a few bugs in the Kodi 20 release, but not surprising given it was only released in January. When I installed Kodi 20, I did a clean install and removed old 19 first.

But then a few issues started to creep in when using the MH freeview plugins. i.e. on TVNZ streams, buffering would crash kodi. Then, TV simple client stopped working.

Tried removing plugins etc and re-running IPTV merge, but simple client was dead and MH plugins kept crashing. Not sure if that was related to a bug in MH / Slyguy code. Had to do a clean install again of Kodi 20. Deleted all traces of Kodi first. And since then pretty much flawless. Uninstall is PITA but fixed it. A bug release of Kodi 20 can't be far away.

I had multiple issues, also related to Kodi 20 upgrade. Stability issues caused me to delete everything Slyguy some time ago and I mainly moved to Tivimate for streaming. Then Freeview kicked my butt and I couldn't get Prime without changing playlists, which meant I couldn't get Oz. Anyway, it seems to have settled down now.

Running Kodi 20 at the moment on a Chromecast with Google TV and an Amazon Fire TV stick.

I find TV1 (Cant say I have looked at the other channels a whole lot), seems to go very glitchy and out of sync/back in sync rather frequently.

I was trying to get my wife to try the TVNZ app and see if that is ok - but she keeps using KODI.

We have a fibre connection and nothing else is having any issues at all.

Using Kodi on a 4K firestick. TVNZ+ works well with Matt's add-on, but I've had to offset the audio sync by 200ms
