Event Group Settings
Configure defaults for event-based EPG generation.
Event Matching
Event Lookahead
How far ahead to match streams to sporting events. Streams are matched to events within this window. Default is 3 days.
Options: 1, 3, 7, 14, or 30 days.
Exception Keywords
When using Consolidate mode, exception keywords allow special handling for certain streams. Streams matching these terms get sub-consolidated or separated instead of following the default consolidation behavior.
Exception keywords only appear when consolidation mode is set to Consolidate in Settings > Channels.
Example Use Case
Your IPTV provider carries both English and Spanish streams for the same game. With consolidation enabled, they’d merge into one channel. Adding a “Spanish” exception keyword with “Separate” behavior creates a separate channel for the Spanish stream.
Keyword Fields
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Label | Display name (available as {exception_keyword} in templates) |
| Match Terms | Comma-separated terms to match in stream names |
| Behavior | Sub-Consolidate, Separate, or Ignore |
| Behavior | Description |
|---|---|
| Sub-Consolidate | Group matching streams together, separate from the main consolidated channel |
| Separate | Each matching stream gets its own channel |

The default team filter for event groups is configured in Event Groups > Global Defaults, not in Settings. Stream consolidation mode is in Settings > Channels.
