Maybe write a script to do that at like 4 am. Was planning on doing that for Plex downloads from newsgroups
not sure if this has been answer but for sling, it pulls the correct channel but it starts muted and with the progress bar on. wondering how i can get rid of that. running on an m2 mac mini
I loaded the GitHub link, went into channels, added my local NBC channel just like your instructions, mapped it, get the guide info, click on "watch" and it keeps giving the login screen (verizon even though I use YTTV). I click on a tab, bring up YTTV login, login in then close it, go back and click on WATCH, back to login request screen again. I know I must be missing something here......
Thank you
Does it work in normal chrome?
Yes, I can bring up chrome to nbc and goes right to it. Same iwhen I pull up YTTV and select my local NBC channel.. Just updated the docker and now I can't even get the above screen. It goes into remux, the reconnect and then back to the box where I can watch or record.....
Here are my settings, I copied from babsonnexus post
#EXTM3U
#EXTINF:-1 channel-id="NBC Local",NBC Local WRC
chrome://X.X.X.X:5589/stream/nbc
and yes, I put my IP in that the docker and channels reside on
chrome://localhost:5589/stream?url=URL
Url, try NBC. I like using the full address
Thanks Doug. I'll try that. Question though, where would i put my local station ID...WRC....so im not getting NBC national feed?
I admit it I'm lost...not sure how to set up the URL. I get invalid errors every time.
chrome://localhost:5589/stream?url=https://www.nbc.com/live?brand=nbc&callsign=WVUA
Replace wvua with your affiliate
I put this in per your instructions in my URL setting on channels. Localhost my ip, and I get this back:
invalid source url: Get "chrome://localhost:5589/stream?url=https://www.nbc.com/live?brand=nbc&callsign=WRC": unsupported protocol scheme "chrome"
Have you tried other urls?
try this changing to your local callsign.
#EXTINF:-1 channel-id="KING",KING
chrome://(yourIP):5589/stream?url=https://www.nbc.com/live?brand=nbc&callsign=KING
Make sure it loads in chrome regularly before chromecapture
OK, maybe I don't understand this as well as I thought....
First, Doug, loading into chrome regularly....I assume you mean NBC.com? Yes I can do that. I haven't tried other urls as I'm not sure which to try to get anything. I did the test on the docker install and get everything back that I'm supposed to....but after that.....nothing works as it should.
2nd: Terry, nope that didn't work either. I go in, load it to the settings, it gathers the guide info when mapped to WRC and when I go to the guide and click "watch" in order to test, it won't bring anything up. Tries to remux, reconnect, remux, reconnect, then brings me back to the box to watch, record, etc.
I at least received the login screen when I first set up, but after I updated the docker to the latest, now I'm only getting the above
Yes sir! The one I've been using to see if it opens in chrome
Your using the same pc you installed on?
#EXTM3U
#EXTINF:-1 channel-id="NBCWRC",NBCWRC
chrome://localhost:5589/stream?url=https://www.nbc.com/live?brand=nbc&callsign=WRC
Try that
I think your primary issue is spacing with channel-id
Nope, that didn't work either. Yes, I'm using same pc I installed on. Static IP so I know that won't change on me. I'm flummoxed!
have you tried other channels?
did you try manual install and using node main.js
This is first channel I've tried as this is all new to me. I've the basic setup with Frndly and Pluto but I'm in new territory.
Not sure how to do manual and using node main...
