Does cc4c work with static webpages? I thought there had to be some sort of video or animation.

Doh!!! That's it! I've just tested it again using the weatherscan example and now it's working. Something is still not great as the display is slow and pixelated but at least I have something now.
Thanks
I have been trying to capture M3U streams from my local news stations but the M3U streams seem to change every other day. I found this similar thread.
I was thinking with Chrome Capture, I would be able to capture the news feed as the URL does not change but what I am running into is that the website requires a mouse click to activate the news stream. If I click on the feed, I can what the stream through Channels / Chrome Capture. I was seeing if some of these auto mouse click utilities would be a solution to activate the stream but there does not seem to be a way to configure it based upon browser activity or location on the screan. Is there a utility or script out there that would be able to provide that single click needed to activate the stream?
#EXTINF:-1 channel-id="ABC Local" tvc-guide-stationid="11624",ABC Local (WKRN)
chrome://localhost:5589/stream?url=https://www.wkrn.com/what-to-watch/watch-news-2-live/?brand=abc&callsign=wkrn
A user here was trying to get DTV/Stream working with CC4C with a macro script but...didn't really have much success.
You might have more luck using Haystack News (via CC4C or even better, using ah4c (or adbtuner if they have a streamlink))
I had plenty of success. I use DirecTV just fine see my posts
If anyone could help me with this one that'd be fantastic. It's WNEP
I was able to create an M3U from the index file since I've been messing this one for a while. This plays back perfectly in VLC.
Anyway, when I added the link to the custom channels,
#EXTINF:-1, WNEP+
chrome://localhost:5589/stream?url=https://www.wnep.com/watch
The site flags the video capture extension as an ad-blocker, so nothing actually plays.
I can hear the audio--but no video.

Have you tried making the .m3u8 link the source?
The m3u works fine in VLC, but does not in Channels. In fact, I can't even add it as a source
Adding it to Emby as a test, every time it cuts over to a commercial, the stream dies and I need tune a different channel, then can go back to it and the commercial will play fine--then die again when it cuts back over to actual content.
That's why I was hoping to leverage the Chrome Capture, as it's about the only thing left to try!
Works fine without using chrome capture
Copy and paste change channel numbers if you wish
#EXTM3U
#EXTINF:-1 channel-id="16.9" tvg-id="16.9" tvg-chno="16.9" tvc-guide-stationid="31258" tvg-name="WNEPDT" group-title="HD",ABC

Hey guys side topic . What channels will officially be supported after tve pretty much dies in sept? Will the ESPN plus/3/fox thing work too?
Legend, I got it going thanks to your guidance
Fair warning on the guide data, I’m not sure if the station id I choose is correct. Compare this evening when they are done with all the news stuff.
nope i just use the Yes app and set up a double click shortcut on the remote
Was this to solve the YES network mute problem? Can you elaborate on what you did to solve this?
I never got the CC4C YES channel to have sound So i just use the YES app for games and set up a double click on my remote to open the app
Can anyone help me out...I want to add a routine for a specific channel. On first load it needs to click a button before the video plays.
I'm also looking to refresh the page every x amount of minutes, click the button and then go full screen again.
channel name localnews
button name '#loadVideoBtn'
I am working on the script for cc4c. Mine works with a lot of networks now. So the deal with NBC, it gives out after how long? I was going to create a script to refresh it every x hours
I have NFL Sunday ticket (CBS) working, still need to finish puffer/standford tv, NBC, and the rest of the directv channels, but directvstream is working good, I may be able to shave 2-4 seconds off load time, it takes about 10 seconds to fully load a channel.
NBC goes 4 hours then quits. Hopefully you won't run into the problem I've seen where video will freeze up while audio continues, happens all the time on CC4C with NBC channels.
Curious how you guys found that out, what do you watch for 4 hours at once? That should be an easy fix though. I can work on it today. Is it all NBC-owned channels, or just NBC?

Stuff like the British Open golf tournament, rain delayed NASCAR races etc.
It's all channels. Let me know if you see the video freeze up issue, I see it all the time. It's about 50/50 for me whether a video will play all the way through without freezing up.
