I was browsing A&E's website, and they have an option to watch live tv with a cable login.
Is there any chance to add this?
Great find!
It looks like some of the A&E Brands work the same way:
History Channel - play.history.com/live
Lifetime - play.mylifetime.com/live
FYI - play.fyi.tv/live

Even greater find! Hopefully the devs can incorporate these streams

Would be great to be able to add these
just because they have a online web stream that uses cable login, does NOT mean they have a TVE type stream that channels can use.
How will we know?
That looks like something channels might be able to use. Great find It doesn't hurt to ask the Channels developers if it is a possibility.
Added support in latest prerelease.
You'll have to update (via click-and-hold on Check for Updates), then after the upgrade: click the pencil icon under your TVE source, click EDIT at the top right, scroll down to 6043 and hit Rescan.

That was a quick turnaround! Thanks for staying on top of things!
A note: remember to quit/force close your client apps after rescanning and adding the channels. That will ensure that they query the server for the complete channel list and guide. Otherwise the channel may not show, or appear with no guide information.

EXCELLENT! 
Can confirm that all 4 channels work now.
Now, if only someone could find a URL stream Channels could use for Discovery Family and the rest of the Nickelodeon channels...woudl be perfect. (and if Philo would add Nat Geo Wild TVE)

Might be prudent for the OP's of the Provider threads to be updated to indicate these 4 networks now work with Channels.

Discovery Family's iOS app has a live stream, so hopefully they will push it to the website like the rest of the Discovery channels.

This is working great many thanks.
Philo still provides me some TVE networks that my folks Xfinity TVE account does not. (like DIY)
So...I still am keeping Philo.
Also makes a good backup/secondary source for some shows for me.
As well as the VOD and past ep air cloud DVR thing...in case i miss something.
But very much happy to have A&E in Channels now, so that I can record and save clips from LIVE PD again now.

I only used Philo so I can view Live PD late. All the other channels I used Spectrum app to watch. Now that A&E is added I can save 20 bucks and use it towards a premium now. Just sub to Starz for $3.33 a month for 6 months. Philo savings paid for it $19.95. This is a great day for me being a Channels DVR user. Thanks Fancy Bits.

They listened to my petition! 
but it would be nice if my smartDNS stopped going crazy, because it redirects me to A&E UK version of the site
