Thanks! Though I have seen it mentioned a time or two, I've never executed a "curl" before. I'll give it a try...
It won't help in all situations, but in the YTTV app you can at least set the "auto pause" time to 24 hours instead of the default 4 hours. The setting is kind of hidden in the menu while watching live tv.
Thank you! I found this after some digging around in the app. I expect that 24 hours should handle most marathon recordings.
Does anyone know the deeplink url format to get univision live on univision now app to work? Thanks in advance
Two of my Chromecasts for Google TV upgraded to Android TV OS 14 and ADBTuner can no longer make the ADB Connection. Anyone else get an upgrade and experience the same behavior?
Wait, what? Did Google disable ADB? Are you able to connect to it via a regular ADB client (like adblink from Jocala)?
Edit: another idea occurred to me - maybe the developer flag got reset with the OS update, and you need to re-enable?
From googling, it doesn't appear that ADB got disabled with this update.
When each device rebooted with the update, ADB Tuner could no longer establish the Android connection. I looked at both - developer options and ADB were still enabled on both. I turned off debugging, rebooted, turned back on, re-added the tuners, no luck. I turned off developer options, rebooted, re-enabled, re-added the tuners, no luck.
I'll try a regular client tomorrow. Need to wait out this freak-out moment.
I imagine you've already checked this, but just in case:
IP address change on the stick(s)?
IP address didn't change - I just checked again to be sure
@bnhf - FYI
ADB over TCP/IP seems to be disabled by default in Android 14 on the CCwGTV 4k.
Opening an adb connection to the device via usb or wireless debugging (with the pairing code) and running adb tcpip 5555
will enable it again, but it doesn't persist after a reboot.
If you are using ADBTuner, ah4c, or similar. Do not upgrade.
I'm looking into some options.
The newer "wireless debugging" feature could be used, but it would require adding support for the dynamic port mapping and interactive pairing code process.
Unfortunately, wireless debugging is also disabled after each reboot so that's something else to figure out (it will need to be toggled back on, but not re-paired after each reboot).
Temporary fix if you have adb installed on your computer:
On the CCwGTV go to Settings -> System -> Developer Options and turn on Wireless Debugging. Then within that Wireless Debugging section, select "Pair device with pairing code."
Make note of the pairing code, IP address, and port.
From your computer run:
adb pair <ip address>:<port>
and then enter the pairing code when prompted.
If the connection is successful (command output would say Successfully paired to <ip address>:<port>
and there will be a popup on the device itself confirming connection.
While connected run this command:
adb tcpip 5555
It should say restarting in TCP mode port: 5555
and from there ADBTuner/ah4c should work again until the Chromecast is rebooted.
@turtletank thank you so much for all you have done with this project. It's been amazing.
I have one CCwGTV 4k and 2 Onn $20 boxes. They are all still on 12 as of this morning.
I am pondering replacing the CC with another Onn box to avoid this issue as long as possible. I'd put my FireSticks back in, except I have really enjoyed being able to record from Peacock.
I noticed on Reddit that, "the hardware H.264 decoding support has been removed** rendering a user unable to use their HDHR on their CCwGTV..
Is this the same for FireTV? Anyone know? Thanks!
FireTV devices are nowhere near Android 14 ... New devices will be coming out with Android 14 but they usually do not upgrade older devices so I would not worry.
My devices are on Android 9 that I use for ADBTUNER.
Fire TV sticks are usually throw away devices.
No nd to be concerned.
Not only did Google kill ADB it also killed the ability to VIEW Cable Card DRM channels. So I am Glad that my FiresTicks are able to use XFINITY Stream and with ADBTUBER I can still Capture DRM Channels.
This discussion prompted me to check my ONN hardware to see what OS versions are running.
Regardless of which device model; UHD, 4K, or 4Kpro, The OS is currently Android TV 12.
Do any of you know if it is possible to prevent any automatic OS upgrades? It seems to me that these devices usually prompt me that an upgrade is available before downloading and installing. Perhaps, just ignoring the reminder is enough?
+1 for FireTV devices as inputs for ah4c and ADBTuner. Even the most recent versions of FireOS (used on the FireStick 4K Max 2nd Gen), are based on Android 11 -- so they'll likely be available, and work well, for years to come.
There are a few consistent detractors on the forum for these devices, but I have found them to be excellent. One of the features that stands out for me, is the FireTV app which allows for remote control of FireSticks WITHOUT using ADB.
For anyone that's away from their home LAN for long periods of time, or manages an encoder in a remote location, the Fire TV app will run on a Mac Mini (or the like). Set up remote access to that Mac device, and even from far away you can both view the display, and send remote control commands to any FireStick on the same network. This works whether adb is functioning or not -- which can, on occasion, be very handy.
In addition, they've worked very well with PoE Ethernet adapters, which is another plus when you're not "on site". This makes hard reboots something that can be done through a managed PoE switch. Not something that needs to be done often, but when you need it, being able to do it remotely beats the heck out of talking an elderly parent through the process.
Thank you for enlightening me about Firesticks. I had no idea about these very desirable features. I have never been an Amazon Device or Mac guy. I may have to broaden my mind a bit... I learn so much through this amazing community.
