Dude, Easy... At least read a few pages back. Nobody likes to answer the same questions over and over again. Lots of info in this thread. Major rule here is to read and or search first, then if encounter issues not yet resolved, then can request for help and sifus will respond.
P.S. iptv stalker is a Live TV feature. You get tons of live channels on KODI.

Thanks for all sifu....
I ordered my RPI yesterday from RS, hope to receive by next week.
Let me try to play around with it, and see what problems....

Dude, is your KODI installation on a Android device or RPI2? If Android I'm not sure but if for RPI2 I can suggest the following;
1. Did you follow the steps-->http://www.tvaddons.ag/install-addons-kodi/, Fusion installer, config wizard (you may hv selected UNIX) and Addon Installer (step by step guide tutorial from the above link)
- my advice DO NOT Follow the above guide for RPI2, it will definitely will not work. I had the same issue. Once your KODI is up just configure the necessary, network, time, display, etc. and install the normal Add-ons.

my 2cents.

cheers

like i said don't follow this guide for Rpi2. Do not even come to this part where you want install for UNIX. smile.gif

I guess you are using OpenElec, there's plenty of tutorial what to do on the web once your KODI is up on your Rpi2. An example;
http://www.htpcbeginner.com/raspberry-pi-openelec-tweaks/

I didn't do overclocking and my Rpi2 still run's fantastic.

Hi sifu, how to do minimize stuttering and buffering issues on my RPI 2 with Openelec?

I try to follow below steps but I can not find advanced setting.xml file in my RPI 2...

From http://www.htpcbeginner.com/raspberry-pi-openelec-tweaks/
7. Minimize Stuttering and Buffering Issues

XBMC 13 Gotham with improvements to address buffering issues on Raspberry Pi. In my opinion this is also one of the must do Raspberry Pi OpenELEC tweaks. This basically involves creating or editing the advancedsettings.xml file to add the code below.

<advancedsettings>
<network>
<buffermode>1</buffermode> <!-- Comment: Default is 1 -->
<cachemembuffersize>0</cachemembuffersize> <!-- Comment: Default is 20971520 bytes or 20 MB -->
<readbufferfactor>4.0</readbufferfactor> <!-- Comment: Default is 1.0 -->
</network>
</advancedsettings>
This OpenELEC Raspberry Pi tweak configures video caching mechanism during playback. Since this might increase the writes to the SD card, having a reliable high-speed SD card is strongly recommended.

don't do anything to your pi yet.start from the basic troubleshooting.
what is your broadband package?
what is your ip you getting?
wired or wireless?

Thanks LeiHuan for responding
I use VIP 5 Mbps
Sorry, I don't know what is Ip? Kindly explain, appreciate it

Wired is good.Not the fancy wireless for live streaming.
To check ip,use the following apps if-
pc-
http://www.speedtest.net/
android phone/tablet-
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?...m.iptools&hl=en
and check which ip work better for you.
you can change the ip address each time you off the modem for 20sec.
Look for the 1st 3 front number.for a start do not take the one starting with 175.very bad.
remember Telexxx ip changes every hours or day,(dynamic ip)
there is trick to capture a good ip and maintain it for weeks and month.
cannot disclose here.big brother may be reading.

I think this is the problem, what do you think? As shown in picture

I had tried to add this advanced setting.XML file into userdata with following setting.
<advancedsettings>
<network>
<buffermode>1</buffermode> <!-- Comment: Default is 1 -->
<cachemembuffersize>0</cachemembuffersize> <!-- Comment: Default is 20971520 bytes or 20 MB -->
<readbufferfactor>4.0</readbufferfactor> <!-- Comment: Default is 1.0 -->
</network>
</advancedsettings>

It becomes worst than before....so now I change the setting to
this

<advancedsettings>
<network>
<buffermode>1</buffermode> <!-- Comment: Default is 1 -->
<cachemembuffersize>20971520</cachemembuffersize> <!-- Comment: Default is 20971520 bytes or 20 MB -->
<readbufferfactor>4.0</readbufferfactor> <!-- Comment: Default is 1.0 -->
</network>
</advancedsettings>

Much better but buffering still happen once in a while

Bro you are welcome smile.gif... The easiest way is either install IPTV Simple Client or Playlist Loader, either one will work depending on you like to watch. Playlist Loader Add-on is available in "Super Repo" and IPTV Simple Client you can download from this link http://www.bbtsip.tv/iptv-simple-client2.html

Newbie here,

What is the m3u play list URL for PVR IPTV simple client 2?

Thank you
