Disney ABC Shutting down stand alone apps

Channels DVR Server TV Everywhere
#21

Question is to everyone not just "Jean0987654321" I'm quoting... And all, feel free to speak to me like I'm an idiot. Because apparently insofar as streaming media is concerned, that's pretty accurate. lol

But, seems the FX Network stream has finally been pulled for good from TVE. Recently would stop then come back ... seems it's gone for good, always throwing the inaccurate and false "abcgo: 1002:You appear to be outside the United States or its territories." error for a while now.

If my want and need is FX movies or TV shows routed thru Channels DVR, the list of alternatives provided by Jean is the best or only answer to accomplish that? Because, I do have the Hulu app and an account for on demand, and I do have live TV via the Spectrum and XFinity cable TV services and apps. ...

I even have a working Slingbox and Slinger, but have never figured out how to restream that and fix it up to be in a form Channels or Emby like.

Much appreciate all informed replies.

FX still working good here on Directv Stream. What service are you using to pull them in?

Yeah, I'm still getting FX, FXP, FXX, FXXP, and FXM through YTTV TVE.
As a backup plan, I have added FXPHD, FXXPHD, and FXMHDP to ADBTuner.
(That's a lot of Caps...) :laughing:

Thanks for all the replies.

Yes to all the troubleshooting techniques that I could do. Only outstanding thing is waiting for a Channels pre-release update to see if that changes anything.

My primary TVE provider is my Spectrum account, but then I also have access to the in-law's XFinity account, which lost Disney & FX and variants for quite a while now when Disney started sunsetting stand-alone apps and services. Had access to a DirectTV Stream account for a while too, but lost access to that when my friends dropped the service.

We have a bundle of services from Spectrum. As per the primary topic of this thread I've lost FREEFORM, DISNEYXD, FXM, FXX and 'P' suffixed variants months ago, all throwing either

"notAuthorized: This content is no longer available through your subscription"
or
"notAuthorized: Due to programming restrictions, this content is currently unavailable."

Only recently, FX and FXP -- which was only available via Spectrum in recent months -- would periodically become unavailable with

"abcgo: 1002:You appear to be outside the United States or its territories."

, then come back for a few weeks. But now, it's been doing that for a while. BTW, all the channels noted throw that "abcgo: 1002" error from XFinity via TVE, so I figure the three error messages I've pasted are functionally equivalent and interchangeable.

Glad to hear it's still available with YTTV. But subscribing to that isn't in the plans.

EDIT: Channels released a new beta. Didn't change anything. I think FX is gone for good on Spectrum now too.

So, Chrome capture... it works? :slight_smile:

Could be either Spectrun auth servers or Channels DVR
