The HLS recorder works like any other IPTV source. It takes a URL to a
m3u playlist file that contains the list of HLS streams (URL to m3u8)
Example: the playlist provided in the commit you refer to contains:
http://www.avenard.org/files/media/playlist.m3u
#EXTM3U
#EXTINF:0,300 - NASA TV (English)
http://www.nasa.gov/multimedia/nasatv/NTV-Public-IPS.m3u8
#EXTINF:0,301 - Al Jazeera (English)
http://aj.lsops.net/live/aljazeer_en_high.sdp/playlist.m3u8
#EXTINF:0,302 - France 24 (French)
http://stream7.france24.yacast.net/iphone/france24/fr/iPad.f24_fr.m3u8
In this file, you can define an XMTV feed and xmltvid, but this isn't provided.
Like any other recorder, you need to provide a XMLTV feed and set the
xmltv id for each channel.
I have written a data grabber for those channels a while back, but it
needs work as I haven't updated it in years:
http://www.avenard.org/iptv/TPG_and_IPTV/EPG.html
In the mean time, you can either use manual recording, or simply watch
the channel using LiveTV.
I'll write a wiki entry about it
