OK - I believe I have fixed the issue with Tvh service name appending. I had to rework the url header due to an improper response from the Tvh api.
Give 0.6.3 a try and let me know if you have any issues.

Thanks!
cloudfire there seems to be an issue in your tvheadend setup. The zap2epg addon doesn't create a log for recordings and other aspects of tvh.
You seem to be running the older LE 8.02 - perhaps you can resintall tvh...and I would also recommend updating to LE 8.2.1 which is a stable release.
If you want to include a debug log, we can take a look and see if something else is going on with tvh.
One thing to check - since it is not currently working correctly - is to turn off the "Append Tvheadend Service Name" option in the zap2epg settings.
cabbresson - thanks for the info. There is a bug in the tvh api that I need to work around if they don't fix it.
OK - looks like I need to take a look at the username/password configuration.
Thanks for the update - I'll take a look and let you know when I have a fix to test!
--- actually - can you try a test for me? From a web browser enter the following:
USERNAME:[email protected]:9981/api/channel/grid?all=1&limit=999999999&sort=name
Then if you get a response with that - try the version below:
USERNAME:[email protected]:9981/api/channel/grid?all=1&limit=999999999&sort=name&filter=[{"type":"boolean","value":true,"field":"enabled"}]
If that gives an error - please let me know.
Thanks!
Didn't realize that it was a backport situation - thanks for that info! Looks like I'll focus on developing my EZTV setup for LE 9. Hopefully I'll have it ready to include with launch.
CvH any chance you can build an 8.2 updated pvr.hts addon? Or if it has to be built into the full LE build - perhaps when you get a chance you can update to latest pvr.hts?
I switched my build environment over to LE 9 - and I've been testing the new feature to pass extended epg genre information from TVH to kodi - working well in LE 9 - but wanted to give a test in LE 8.2 if possible.
Just hoping I don't have to setup another build environement! 
cloudfire I assume you have enabled the zap2epg grabber in tvheadend. Do you have any other grabbers enabled?
Here's a couple of updates - one specifically for issues with bad channels. Now if the channel is not enabled in Tvheadend, zap2epg won't try to match the service name.
v0.6.2 (2017-12-13)
- Only match Tvheadend channels that are enabled
- Add option for original genre categories
- Various fixes for extra description listings

Thanks to all for the continued feedback!
Looks like testing reports are good for Kodi 17/18 - LE 8/9 compatibility so I'm going to update for real.
I've also added a function that pre-selects the OTA Tvheadend channels that are enabled on your system when creating your channel list. This basically automates the process of adding only the OTA stations your using to your epg data downloads to speed things up.
Enjoy!

And thank you for reporting any issues.
OK - I believe I have fixed the username/password issue and implemented complete Kodi 18 (LE9) compatibility. Before I release to github, please test this version and let me know of any issues.

Thanks!
cabbresson - I was just doing some username/password testing with tvh and noticed a similar issue with multiple logins needed. Seemed ot happen when I had multiple accounts with the same rights access. Not sure why this would be - but may be causing the issue.
One way to check is to enter the following url into chrome:
USERNAME:[email protected]:9981/api/status/connections
You should get a json response with the connection status. A popup for signing in should not appear. (Note - you need to use chrome for the test as firefox and IE always have a popup. They don't seem to know how to handle the username/password combo in the url - which is weird.
Let me know if you get a clean response for this. If so, it will help me focus on where your issue is.
Thanks! Funny how “enjoy” includes setting up a wireless (no outlets here!) coding environment.
BTW - cabbresson you’re not the only one with the tvh issue...seems related to username/password, so I’m going to setup a test tomorrow.
Favorite new place to write code!
For those testing LE 9 - you can try this version. (it should also work on LE 8 systems)

Thanks!
Thanks ScotyBro ! You can definitely upgrade to 0.5.4 version now and get the movie cast info working:
Releases · edit4ever/script.module.zap2epg · GitHub
I'm also testing LE9 compatibility now and should be releasing that update soon.
If someone is running LE 9 and wants to test my zap2epg addon...I have a test version ready:
script.module.zap2epg-0.5.4-TEST-LE9.zip
This should work on both LE 8 and LE 9 and should be the last test needed before an actual release.
Thanks!
Thanks clarkss12 ! Just note that I am no sure of the timeline/intent of what zap2it is doing with their site. When I stumbled across the new site - it seemed like it was ready for launch for all...then a couple of days later, the website reverted back to the old zap2it style. Now both versions of the zap2it guide are active...so I'm not sure what's going on with them.
Of course, if it goes down, you can always switch back over to schedules direct. Plus they still do have the best data set - we just need to get tvheadend to recognize and pass it all to kodi! - which they are slowly working on doing.
cabbresson - please try this test version and turn on the "Append Tvheadend Service Name" option.
script.module.zap2epg-0.5.4-TEST.zip
Then PM me your log. Thanks!
-- I added some additional code in the "try" section of the tvheadend channels match.
small update - added an epg grabber cron wizard to help those who don't know how to manually set the cron.
