Live Channels app w/ TVirl - How to change Categories

by jhedfors

I am using Google's Live Channels app w/ TVirl. How are the categories (ex Comedy, Travel, News, etc) for the channels identified? I would like to be able to change if possible.

The Live Channels app supports the following categories:

FAMILY

KIDS

SPORTS

SHOP

MOVIE

COMEDY

TRAVEL

DRAMA

EDUCATION

ANIMAL

WILDLIFE

NEWS

ARTS

ENTERTAINMENT

LIFESTYLE

MUSIC

PREMIER

TECHNOLOGY

SCIENCE

In the M3U file you must add the category like this in the channel syntax:

group-title="LIFESTYLE"

In order for this to work the channels must have EPG.
