    Little bug I've found:

    I can't navigate to another channel while recording a different one. It comes up with:

    "Warning - Now Recording - OK"

    Hope this is helpful, not a complaint at all

    Hi,

    It's not a bug. please refer to the below.

    You can watch one channel while recording one if your connection type is XC API and the server supports this function.

    FYI.

    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Record one channel, watch another channel for multi-connection XC portals, what means this exactly?

    This means, your provider XC Api subscription need to have at least two lines/connections to record one channel and watch another channel. With one single line this not work.Once again, Xtreme Codes Api (XC Api) connection with two included lines/connections works and with single subscription line not.


    Nice XC Api works, what is with MAC/ID Stalker portal connection?

    With Stalker subscription is recording and watching not possible. Stalker use always one single line/connection for iptv and registered MAC/ID address.Means, if you want to use this feature with your box, then you need to speak with your provider and change to XC Api connection.


    Does it works with M3U Playlist?

    Yes it works also with M3U playlist, but you should first speak with your provider if you allowed to use this feature with single or need two lines at same time for M3U playlist.

    The user assumes any risk of ban in this case! This depends fully from your provider and permission. Formuler is not responsible for any bans in this case. Pleas check this first with your provider before you use this feature with your m3u playlist.


    Is merge possible?


    2x XC Api merge is not possible. This MOL2 feature use only XC Api subscription with included multi lines/connections. Some provider give users the possibility to have up to 5 lines/connections in one XC subscription. Depends all from provider. Some supports this and others don`t want to activate this option.
