Are you using the additional playlist option so you can have two sources of M3U from ADBT? You’d have to be on the most current Dev version from last week.
Oh, and make sure to share any working deep links you find!
Yeah, it is great for keeping things separate from each other. 
I absolutely will put together a list to share the new deep links I uncovered.
By the way, I think I may have found a couple small errors in your list:
The EarthXTV and Animal Planet deep links have some placeholders from Jean's list in them:

Good catch! Odd those work when I tested last night, but I will for sure go check. Good luck with further testing.
Wow, not sure how I missed that, but sure enough, bad links. They are now fixed. Thanks!
Right. No guarantees, but that has been my experience. I have been using one since back when they came out almost a year ago, and have replaced all of my CCWGTVs, so have 4 in service now, no problems. I prefer the picture quality of the official Google devices over the Walmart and Amazon devices.
Has anyone outside of CCWGTVs had this issue? I think people were worried, but I seem to have seen other devices update to 14 okay since.
My personal opinion is this is a bug, not a feature. From what I've read, Google intended on putting out one update to Android 14 for CCWGTVs before putting it out to pasture.
I prefer the picture quality of the official Google devices over the Walmart and Amazon devices.
I will agree with you there. The Onn boxes are fine for "everyday" tuning, but their picture quality is not the best. The colors are a bit too vibrant and the picture overly sharpened. The old Osprey/Geminis devices put out a more natural picture, a comment I've shared many times. For the price, Onn boxes do just fine.

I'm not holding my breath but I was able to get a ticket open through a friend that works at Google and they claim it's a known bug that they are working on. If I get any updates I'll let you know. I have 12 CCWGTV's and I'm going to replace half of them with Onn boxes hoping there's a fix soon enough.
If you can afford it, the Google TV Streamer paired with a Link Pi ENC1Pro looks so goooood.
Wow. Do you have four ENC1Pro devices to match all the Google Streamers @nateg? If you know anything about my Channels Playground history, you'll see I'm a big fan of LinkPi.
Haha, I could afford three. Phased in over time... I leverage those encoder priorities...
I'm a linkpi fan too. The ENC1Pros can support full 4k 60 frames, which can be quite nice.
Impressive. I hope you are making good use of that open USB 3.0 port, putting in a quality USB/HDMI capture card for extra tuner.
EDIT: Did you know LinkPi (or YouYeeToo) makes a 4K60 USB Capture device? Sure, not cheap at around $190 shipped, but...

Does ADB Tuner no longer work with Google Chromecast devices.
I haven't used this for a while and now I cannot establish a connection to the android device.
Looks like they all updated to version 14.
Unfortunately, it's a known issue. The Chromecast dongles lost ADB with the Android 14 update. Forever? Not sure.
I didn't know about that. I hope that the processor wouldn't be overworked doing both. Any device I used before the ENC1Pro, that would claim 4K30 couldn't really handle it in practice, and I would have to drop down to 1080p to get it to not bug out.
Thanks....I ordered a couple of ONN boxes for now.
Are you using your Onn Plus boxes with USB Ethernet or Wifi?

Wireless. Wi-Fi 6 to be exact.
Thanks. I just got a couple of Onn 4K Plus boxes yesterday and that I planned to swap for my current CCwGTV. They are in my rack, and I use POE. Just saw that some people are having issues using a usb nic with adb enabled on these devices. Might end up returning them for something else.
I agree Ethernet is ideal. My AH4C setup is Eth connected.
I’ve had the Onn Plus boxes testing, off and on, for a few weeks. No major network related issues to report. WiFi working well.
You could grab an Onn Pro from Walmart, which has Ethernet. Would be cheaper than a Plus with add-on USB Ethernet (unless you already have the USB Eth adapters). You could also Grab a Google Streamer. They were confirmed working a few post back, but they are three times the expense of a single Plus box.
For what it's worth, I had some brief trouble with the first few recordings. I had the following error:
The following CDVR ([192.168.1.100:8089](file:///data/user/0/me.bluemail.mail/cache/192.168.1.100:8089)) log lines match your filters:

Folks, the moral of the story is that when you're adding your ADBTuner Custom Channel Source to CDVR, Remember that the stream format defaults to HLS. Don't forget to change it to MPEG-TLS.
