DVR error on Shield TV (Oreo Update)

I just installed the Oreo update on my Shield TV and am getting the following error when trying to access the Settings tab on the Web UI:

Everything else seems to be working fine.

Can you paste the output from http://x.x.x.x:8089/system/load

null

Thatā€™s it.

Thanks. Iā€™m still waiting for the Oreo update here so Iā€™ll be able to track it down and fix once it shows up.

This is from the HEADERS tab:

The JSON and Raw Data tabs both have Null

Just tested recording and it is working. Both the Apple TV and Android TV apps are working OK as well as all tabs in the Web UI except the Settings Tabā€¦canā€™t get into that one.

Really like Oreo though

Iā€™ve uploaded a new DVR pre-release build with a fix. Since you canā€™t access the settings tab, you will have to use a Terminal to run a curl command:

curl -XPUT http://x.x.x.x:8089/updater/check/prerelease

Any plans to configure Channels to become an Android tv ā€œchannel? Would be great to be able to hit dvr recordings or favorite channels right from home screen.

3 posts were split to a new topic: Shield playback issues (Oreo)

I have the same issue that rockwalk is describing, and donā€™t seem to know how to fix it using curl. I used the command in cmd and it says ā€œtrueā€ and thatā€™s it. When I click on settings in the web UI, I still receive the same error message.

Hmm, does the Log tab show that it downloaded the new version after running the curl command again?

This is what the log says:

2018/05/24 23:40:53 [SYS] Downloading new version vprerelease1
2018/05/24 23:40:53 [SYS] Error checking for update: invalid response for https://channels-dvr.s3.amazonaws.com/prerelease1/android-arm64.sha256: 403 Forbidden

There should not be a ā€œ1ā€ at the end of the command.

Thank you for the fix. Did a little learning about Linux terminal, loaded one on my android tablet, ran the curl command and it worked.

The updates to Channels has fixed the glitchy playback and crashes when using the new DVR commands. I think I am about ready to box up the Apple TV box and use the Shield solo. Just hope it can record six streams and play a recording back at the same time.
