Thanks, Sam. I'll try again.

All of this errors point to wrong inserted url, please recheck what you typed in. Only one wrong char leads into error.

Maybe this article can help you -> How to use MAC/ID portal, Xtreme Codes Api (XC) and M3U Url on Formuler Boxes.

OK, I just found out I have to specify that I want a trial for a Formuler box. That helped a bit.

However, I get stuck loading at 90-99%. The message I got from the provider is "I place your information to the 00:1A:B8:C1:90:C4
Cause mac already detected." I don't know what that means.

Before I do another trial with another subscription, can you tell me if I'm doing something wrong?

I have tried ethernet and I have tried a VPN. Neither made a difference.

Did you find a solution? I have 2 Z10 boxes, both have freezing problems. I have unplugged, confirmed software is up to date, deleted and reinstalled MyTVOnline2. What else? Is there a setting that may be affecting this?

Sam, I have 2 Formuler boxes, they both behave the same.

No longer can record anything. Maybe I'll dig the VCR out of the garage.

If you have tried the NTFS format already, please try with exfat or fat32.

working on it, thanks

Another thing I have noticed is that recordings end up being only half of what they should be. Is there some setting to double or halve the recording speed?

Hi again. Still having lots of problems but I think I found a new rabbit hole to go down...

We are getting a lot of buffering and I think that is at least partly why I am not getting complete recordings. I have Starlink internet with Deco mesh. My speed is 867 mbps so i don't think that is the problem. I have turned on a VPN to see if that changes anything. I have also turned off Private DNS as Henkie suggested.

Any thoughts?

TIA, Murray

Yes but tried again this morning. I also installed a Formuler update.

I have tried 3 different IPTV content providers.

All 3 work with IPTV Smarters. None of them work with Tivi Mate

All 3 with MOL2:

Stalker Portal error message:

Server returned HTTP 401 Code 7-400

M3U error message:

check m3u URL Code 11

Am I making any progress?

That is as expected. I have tried 2 different IPTV content providers, I could not make any of their URLs work with MOL2 so I have sent service requests. These are both trials so I may not get an answer in time. Ah me!

I got a one day subscription to XCodesIPTV. I works on IPTV Smarters but I could not get MOL2 to accept the login. Could you suggest another IPTV provider I could try?

Thanks Sam. I have done as asked and am waiting to starting test scheduled recording.

Play time is set at 3 hours and was set by provider.

I have been trying to test with Tivi Mate as Henkie suggested. I got the app downloaded just fine but I cannot ad the playlist using Stalker Portal URL, which is what I use with MOL2. Tivi Mate support's response was to go back to my provider. I am now part of a discussion on the IPTV provider's forum as they say that should work. I kinda feel like I'm in nevernever land at the moment.
I really appreciate all your help.

I am trying to do some recording right now. One channel ,Fox Sports1US, gives the message Warning, recording not supported. I can record other channels live in the moment.

Today, I have scheduled a few recordings. They remain in the schedule queue until after they are supposed to be finished recording but there is nothing to view. Arrrrggggg!!

"Do you also set timer recording also one by one, in row or two at same time?

Power off setting -> Standby or Power Off?"

Recordings are scheduled one by one. Power is left on as I understood that if a recording is scheduled, the box will turn itself back on.

"Did you try to record with other Media and tested current on PC to see if errors available. What are you using for recording exactly?"

I have tried 16G USB sticks, 2 different 128 G SanDisk micro SD cards and a 1T Elements External Hard Drive. The media I am currently using are the HD and an SD card.

Looking at them on the computer, the SD card has an autorun setup info and autorun ICO files as well as folders for ringtones, podcasts, pictures, notifications, music, movies, LOST.DIR, download, DCIM, Android and alarms.

Android has 1subfolder data which contains file called .nomedia and subfolders ar.tvplayer.tv, ch.protonvpn.android, com.google.android.gms, com.android.vending, com.rtk.mediabrowser, tv.formuler.mytvonline.real.

All other folders are empty.

The HD is the same except no ProtonVPN folder.

I have 2 accounts that i have been told to set up thru stalker portal on MOL2. I have had them for @ 1 year. There have always been occasional problems with recording but it has gone crazy in the past few months.

I have 2 Z10Pros

Both are:

Firmware version v10.10.55

Firmware version r27236

Build date 20250109

I am trying the Tivimate. I cannot get the playlist to load. When i try Stalker portal, it will not process, when I try my URL in M3U, it says it has processed but the app is empty.

My Formuler boxes are recording sporadically again, so I am back to the original problem.

I am trying that now. I keep getting an error message when I try to add my playlist but the message is not helpful. "An error has occured while processing the playlist. Make sure you have entered the correct data and check your internet connection.

Does anyone have any more suggestions? Not being able to record is a nuisance.

nope, nothing, I get the error message no matter how I try to record and what media I have plugged in

Thanks, Samis. So that error message is one I don't need to worry about.

But I still cannot record, I get the message "recording not supported". We were test recording yesterday and then suddenly got this message on both boxes. Maybe I turned something off that I shouldn't have?

yes and yes, thank you Henkie

Well, it appears I have managed to break it completely. I have tried reformatting my 128g microSD cards using Rufus. I have reformatted my 1 T hard drive using Rufus, my laptop and the MyTVOnline2 default. When I plug the media into my laptop, I get the message "This file does not have an app associated with it for performing this action Please install an app or, if one is already installed, create an association in the Default Apps Settings page."

I get the message "recording not supported" on both boxes with all 3 storage media.

What do I do now?

Hi. I am new to this forum. I have a Formuler Z10 box with MOL2. The recording feature only works intermittently. If I set out to record 4 shows, odds are that 2 will record nothing, 1 will say the full recording is there but when I go to play back, there is only a fraction of the program, and 1 maybe will record properly.

I have tried reformatting the micro SD cards (I have 2 boxes, same problem). Doesn't help. Any other suggestions? (I am not terribly literate with this stuff)

Thanks!

Murray
