Can ESPN be added to Channels now?

[jb7764]

Can ESPN be added to Channels? I am using a Fire TV. I currently subscribe through a MyDisney account.

[chDVRuser]

Not sure about using the 3rd party developer projects here, but have you tried adding a TVE source in Channels DVR using your TV provider credentials?

If you can link your TV provider and stream at https://www.espn.com/watch/ it should work
Upper right of webpage Profile > Manage My: TV Provider

ESPN is not in the TVE Source list. I subscribe to ESPN only, which includes Basic Hulu and Disney. Not the same as Hulu Live.

[chDVRuser]

Ahh, OK.
Have you tried using The Walt Disney Company as the provider?

If that doesn't work for TVE access, you would have to try one of the 3rd party developer projects.
I can't help with that since I don't use any of them.

ADBTuner: A "channel tuning" application for networked Google TV / Android TV devices

ADBTuner: A "channel tuning" application for Google TV / Android TV devices. Inspired by "HDMI for Channels" (HDMI for Channels). After spending many weeks researching and collaborating with everyone in the above thread (thank you, everyone) I decided to sit down and write a small web application to make the process easier to manage (for me), and hopefully others. Project Goals Fully containerized (Docker), no external dependencies Fully configurable via a web interface Intentionally limi…

AndroidHDMI for Channels (ah4c): A virtual channel tuner using HDMI Encoder(s) + streaming stick(s)

The original HDMI for Channels thread is super long, and this particular variant (dockerized version of ah4c plus ws-scrcpy) bears only a passing resemblance to the original project. So, I thought it might be time to create a new thread that highlights what the capabilities are of this very useful extension. There are two projects that use this same combination of HDMI encoder(s) + streaming stick(s) as a source for Channels DVR. This project, ah4c, and ADBTuner. ADBTuner is great for any strea…

Chrome Capture for Channels

I've created a new project which lets you capture the video/audio from a Chrome tab and redirect into a Custom Channel See the GitHub README for setup instructions When running, there is a server on port 5589 which you can then use from a Custom Channel: #EXTM3U #EXTINF:-1 channel-id="cnbc",CNBC chrome://x.x.x.x:5589/stream/cbnc #EXTINF:-1 channel-id="weatherscan",Weatherscan chrome://x.x.x.x:5589/stream?url=https://weatherscan.net h/t @babsonnexus DEPRECATED: PC Stream for Channels (DRM…

Chrome HDMI for Channels (CH4C): Chrome channel tuner plus HDMI encoder

I’ve created a proof of concept that pairs Chrome channel tuning with an HDMI encoder, enabling Channels to record any URL at 1080p / 60fps. See the GitHub README for screenshots and setup instructions This borrows heavily from Chrome Capture for Channels and Android HDMI for Channels. If you’re familiar with CC4C, think of this as a similar idea but offloading the encode to another device. If you’re familiar with AH4C, think of this as a similar idea but using a Chrome browser as the input …

ESPN+ & FOX Sports with Custom Channels via EPlusTV

[68747470733a2f2f692e696d6775722e636f6d2f4649475a6452332e706e67] I've played a bit with the EPlusTV project from GitHub which, after you've added your authorization, provides you with both an m3u and xmltv data for ESPN+ streams. These can easily be added to Channels to let you watch the live streams. It works well, if you employ it the right way. Out of the box, the channels have information for the airing sporting events and art for the airings. The airing data includes all the approrpiate…

HDMI for Channels

There are a lot of HDMI IP encoders available on Amazon these days, under brand names like URayCoder and iseevy These have been discussed a bit in the past here: I picked one up to try it out, and it works quite well. You can choose between H264/H265, select the bitrate and a lot of other options. It exposes a simple url http://x.x.x.x/0.ts which can be fed directly into a Custom Channel for streaming into Channels DVR. There are even models available with 4 HDMI inputs: https://www.szuray.c…

If you can't get it to work with your provider the easy answer is to install the E+ docker container.

I get an error:

@resjus30 Are you and the OP @jb7764 the same person?
Your post looks out of place in his thread. Perhaps you posted to the wrong topic.

[jb7764]

Thanks so much for the many options! I am using Docker (the Synology version called Container Manager) for Pluto and Samsung images. However, it has been some time since I set those up and I cannot remember the step by step of setting up images in Container Mgr. I found the EplusTV image and downloaded it. What do I do next? Like what ports and settings to use, and where do I get that link to add to Channels as a source? IS there a link to such a guide? Thanks again!!

[chDVRuser]

Best to ask in that Topic thread.
I don't use that Project.

[jb7764]

Will do. Thanks

[resjus30]

Why would we be the same person? You’re too much.

I’m just reporting what I see when I use my D+ ESPN+ Hulu with Live TV login.

EPlusTV works great for ESPN in Channels DVR. I just started using it myself. But as others said, best to ask questions related to it in that other thread.
