Groups Settings

You may want to change some of your group settings or add custom groups.

Enable or Disable Groups

• Go to Settings > Playlists, click on a playlist, then scroll down to Manage Groups.
• Here you can decide what groups you want showing and what groups you want hidden.
• You will have to do this for each set of groups: TV, Movies, and Shows.
• For live TV, this can also be done from the TV guide. Select the playlist and long press the select button, then scroll to the bottom to Manage Groups.

Group Options

From the TV guide, scroll left and click on a playlist group, then long press the select button. The menu on the right will show several options to customize your group:

• Group Name: Edit or change the name of the group.
• Restore Group Name: Return to the original group name.
• Channels Sorting: Choose how you want the channels sorted in the group (by order in playlist, by name, by date added, by watch time, or manual). If you choose manual, click on Reorder Channels to drag and drop channels.
• Show Favorites Only: Only show the channels you selected as a favorite.
• Use External Player: Choose if you want to use an external player for that group (VLC, MX Player, etc.). This only sets the external player for the group. To set it globally, go to Settings > Playback > Use External Player.
• EPG Time Offset: Change this in increments of 1 hour up or down until your EPG matches the right time. This only changes the group. To change it globally, go to Settings > EPG > EPG Sources and adjust the time offset.
• Block Group: Use your Parental Controls PIN to block or unblock the group.
• Hide Group: Hide the group from being shown. To unhide, go to Manage Groups and enable it.
• Delete Group: Only for groups you have created. If you delete the group, you will have to re-create and set it up again.
• Manage Groups: Choose what groups will be shown on the playlist. This is the same as in the playlist settings.

Creating Custom Groups

You can add custom groups to any playlist. They can be added under All Playlists or an individual playlist. Once you create a group, you can move or copy channels from any playlists and put them in that group. After your custom group is set up, you can manage it the same way as any other group.
