Not all EXTINF lines contain a tvg-id so not all bouquets will be created OR not all channels will be added due to the absence of a tvg-id. Simply added tvg-id "" to the playlist will work, but when working with a remote file this is not always convenient.

I have exactly the same problem with a provider. What I do is to download the M3U file, then use find & Replace to replace #EXTINF:-1 group with #EXTINF:-1 tvg-id="" group. Then save the file to the box and use the local file location as the M3U URL.

It is a pain to do every Day but works well until the panel sends a compliant file

In v0.8.3 if a channel doesn't have any tvg parameters it will be ignored, this fixed an issue where the presence of these channels would cause the entire the script/plugin to fail.

This will be further tweaked in v0.8.4 so that these channels will be included in the bouquets.

Should be fixed in v0.8.4
