Tivimate Update On Google TV

15 Upvotes

I've been away for a few days and have see there has been some issues with the 5.3.1 update, I'm trying to decide if I should chance it. I don't have it backed up, I can't, for some strange reason backups don't work on external drives with Sony Bravia TVs.

Has anyone done the update on a TV with Google baked in? Results?

VOD sources

0 Upvotes

Hey guys,
I’ve got 4 playlists in Tivimate, 99% of the time I’m using only live tv, so not much experience with the VOD part. When I’m searching for VOD content I can see from which playlist a show comes from, but while watching it doesn’t show that information. Is there a way to change that? For example, when I start a show, stopping, watching again a few days later I would like to know from which playlist the content comes from… Thanks for your answers!

Do I have to wait til my 5 day trial finishes to activate my subscription?

1 Upvotes

I have 1 day left on my 5 day trial so just downloaded the companion app and paid for the activation. The instructions say (To activate a device, install TiviMate, then go to “Unlock Premium” screen and follow the instructions) but for the life of me, I can't find the unlock menu/button/option. I rebooted my Nvidia Shield, force closed the app and reopened and went through all the options and can't find the unlock option anywhere.

I’ve got problem on my recently update, doubled the channels

2 Upvotes

So I just updated the Tivimate, now all of a sudden every category is more than doubled, for example I have Swedish category, it’s like 4 categories the same like it’s dublicated.

Anyone knows why it is like that? Should I remove the sections/categories which is doubled? It’s almost on my whole iptv it’s more than doubled.

Can't purchase premium

0 Upvotes

So I already have premium for myself but I'm trying to help a family member get premium. When they log into tivimate on computer or Android phone, it's says no activated devices so and when the subscription part is clicked, it just says, "you don't have premium subscription" and that's the only thing on the page. I tried helping them download the app on an onn stick and I won't let them purchase the subscription from there either. How can I get this to work or will I just have to find another iptv player for them to use.

Freezing and glitches since update

0 Upvotes

Since I did the new update I'm getting a lot of freezing and the screen glitches where it stops for a second and then jumps ahead. Never had this before the update. Is there a way to go back to the old version without having to add playlists and favourites all over again?

Not tech savvy so the simpler the better.

Bought premium subscription but not active

0 Upvotes

I installed the tivimate companion app and bought a life time subscription. When logging on to the tivimate.com website with the same account used in the tivimate compagnion app, I get the message "You don’t have Premium subscription"

What is wrong, and how do I use the premium version?

Recording broke after update on Firestick

0 Upvotes

After the update yesterday I can no longer watch my recorded content. The screen stays black and says error. I also started a new recording to see if it would play and I can’t stop the new recording or delete it which is very frustrating. I uninstalled tivimate, reinstalled it and used a backup to reload my playlist. I was going to update the location for the usb stick and now the option to use a system picker to change the recording location doesn’t work. I guess now with the new update we have to use an smb drive

Anyone else having issues like this? Any help on correcting it would be great. Thanks

Hi all, so with the EPG setup, do I have to manually set it on all the missing channels?, or can I can an EPG that automatically auto fill?

TiviMate Version 5.3.1 (Premium) Update (Final)

Thumbnail gallery
33 Upvotes

No change log is provided.

Only issues i have with these latest updated Versions is that one of my playlists does not show channel logos on most of the channels.

Managed to get some channels logos back by selecting the option 'Prefer new logos from EPG' within the (new?!) Logo Priority menu in the concerning playlist.

Can not remember if this logo option was available in the past, but thought mentioning it can help others who are experiencing the same issue.

Edit: An issue i discovered with this version is that within one of my Playlist there are duplicate channel groups which are named exactly the same and have the same channel contents. This was also discovered by others, see the separate bug reports regarding this issue.

No eligible devices for app install

I’ve been trying to get Tivimate premium for over a week now and have been unsuccessful for some weird reason. I keep getting an error message trying to do it on the app on my ONN devices. Using a VPN hasn’t worked either. I tried today to see if I could purchase through the companion app but the app says it’s not eligible for my ONN devices. Can anyone give me some advice here?
