Simple Freeview NZ & AU IPTV Kodi Setup (with full guide & radio)

A New Zealand & Australia combined playlist with full EPG & radio stations!
You can view the included Australia channels HERE & included NZ channels HERE.

How

From the KODI Main Menu, navigate to Add-ons -> My Addons -> PVR Clients.
Scroll down to PVR IPTV Simple Client and select it.

Note:
If you do not have the "PVR Clients" menu or the "PVR IPTV Simple Client" listed:
Navigate to Add-ons -> Add-on Browser -> Install from Repository -> All Repositories -> PVR Clients -> PVR IPTV Simple Client.
Then click Install. Then continue with the below steps.

Now select "Configure".

Under "General", set the "M3U Playlist URL" to: https://i.mjh.nz/nzau/kodi.m3u8

Move to "EPG Settings" and set "XMLTV URL" to: https://i.mjh.nz/nzau/epg.xml

Move to "Channel Logos" and set "Channel Logos from XMLTV" to: Prefer XMLTV

Then select "OK".

Now simply Enable the add-on.
(If the add-on is already enabled, disable it, and then re-enable it)

You should see the channels scanning in and now have a "TV" and "Radio" main menu items.

You can not use full PVR features (recording etc) with this particular PVR back-end.

It's just an easy way to get IPTV streams and guide support into KODI.

Rearrange

To change the order, navigate to Settings -> PVR & Live TV -> General
First disable "Use channel order from backend(s)".

Now select Channel manager.

To move a channel, navigate to it, open the context menu and select move.
Now move the channel to where you would like it.
