Regarding the random black screen on channel change can anyone try this advancedsettings.xml (location on Android is "/sdcard/Android/data/org.xbmc.kodi/files/.kodi/userdata/") and tell me if it acts better? I didn't have any black channel since using it (3 days) but I don't wanna that it's just a lucky coincidence 
Regarding the XMLTV EPG I set up xmltv to use tv_grab_it for some channels (47 to be precise, and it takes ~1 hour per fetched day with the --slow parameter that includes descriptions) and fix it using tv_sort on the generated output because some channels don't have a stop time and this won't let tvheadend add them to its database.
I used a Debian chroot in my Synology NAS and set up a crontab job in Synology's crond to execute a script, located at '/root/xmltv.cron' with this content:
After that I enabled "Web Station" for the users and I can access my EPG from "http://NAS_IP/~alan/tvguide.xml" and use this URL as w*g*e*t parameter for tv_grab_file
This is the result:
If you install on your Play the Debian chroot that I posted yesterday you can practically do the same, just install xmltv on it running
(or, if you know what you're doing, compile it from sources installing the required dependencies, some perl modules)
Install a cron daemon like "vixie-cron" and add it to "/system/xbin/debian-chroot" in the "start_services" function (like the template that runs the SSH server).
Set it up, save the XML output somewhere like "/home/wetek/tvguide.xml" and replace the "w*g*e*t" line in tv_grab_file with "cat /storage/debian/debian-chroot/home/wetek/tvguide.xml"
Code:
<advancedsettings>
<network>
<buffermode>1</buffermode>
<cachemembuffersize>52428800</cachemembuffersize>
<readbufferfactor>10</readbufferfactor>
</network>

). Since I've been running with very good results the official 14.1 I'm going to update that part linking a zip that flashes the latest stable build..gif "FacePalm")
Sorry. Thanks for the great rom!
