**Operating environment (Docker/Windows/Linux/QNAP, etc.):Same issue on Windows 10 and Synology NAS (Docker)
Description of problem:
Channels DVR recently added the ability to export XMLTV from their guide provider and also the ability to add custom m3u/xml lists in to their system. A combined and/or individual m3u/XMLTV can be pulled from the source(s) in Channels DVR. When using the Channels DVR m3u/XMLTV file I am getting a parsing error with their XMLTV URL. If I input their XMLTV in xTeVe and then use the xTeVe URL within Telly it works fine. Possible issue is that Telly is assuming "channel" is an integer. Provided examples of the m3u/XMLTV at the bottom under "Additional Information".
