Using the Indigo utility, I have installed CNTV LIVE ADDON on either a Linux desktop computer and/or an MXQ Pro Android TV Box (running on a LibreELEC OS with Kodi v17.1) and am able to watch some CNTV Live channels, i.e. CCTV-3, XMTV, etc. From the CNTV Live package, I notice it does come with an IPTV EPG (probably in Chinese and/or English languages). So, I have enabled all the options in the EPG menu, i.e. Enable IPTV EPG, Download EPG for National Channels, as well as Download EPG for Provincial EPG. Then, I enabled the PVR IPTV Simple Client and configured it to use the CNTV IPTV EPG as follows:
