Is anyone seeing the NFL game in the guide today on Fox? I see the pregame and that's it, the game is not there.
I'm wondering if FOX is re-using event ids or something. It wasn't there for me, but after clearing the DB it worked. I might have to put some logic in there for that...
What's the quick way to clear the DB? Do you have to reauthenticate afterwards?
Just delete the entries.db and schedule.db files in the config directory. You don't have to re-authenticate. The tokens are saved elsewhere. You will have to re-build your schedule in Channels though
Thanks, I figured it out before you posted but I I knew you'd follow up because you're good like that. 
This may be the reason why we have seen NFL games missing through the season.
I had to do that as well, to see new stuff come down. far as delete the .db files
Thanks, I'm getting the 4K feed now.
Nice

Any update on how to make channel recognize eplus entries for league or team passes? Maybe the entries just don’t have enough info in their title. NFL games only say team names, not even cities. I don’t want to just record anything that has “eagles” in the title
I can only put in what the API is giving me. You could add checks for the tags or other keywords like at or vs
Does EplusTV work with the Sports Section? It works great in channel collections with automatic channels but nothing from my EplusTV source shows up in the Sports Section. Is it just me? TIA
@m0ngr31 is there any way you can relay the actual error or status message in the client app that correspond with the error/status message in docker?
for example, i clicked on FS1 on Eplus and this is the error i received in the client and server log, a 404:
2024/01/23 15:20:33.582494 [ERR] Could not start stream for M3U-ESPN ch6501 EPlusTV 6501: M3U: Could not fetch playlist: 192.168.1.30:8000: GET: http://192.168.1.30:8000/channels/6501.m3u8: 404 Not Found
but in Docker, the log shows it as Ended:
2024-01-23 15:20:32 Channel #6501 has an active event (The Pat McAfee Show). Going to start the stream.
2024-01-23 15:20:33 Event status: OVER
2024-01-23 15:20:33 Could not get stream data. Event might be upcoming, ended, or in blackout...

would be much better in understanding why it didnt start instead of a 404 error. Especially if the guide shows time left on the show.
thanks.
This is more of a generic project. I'm not tying into Channels specifically.
I'm adding some padding on each event in case of overtime or whatever. So it's possible that they could be ended even if it still shows in the EPG. All the providers have different errors depending on the event status (even ESPN+ vs ESPN linear), so it's hard to just have an easy solution for that.

If you want to surface messages like this I believe you can return an http response header called X-Tuner-Error
The latest pre-release has improved the handling of the X-Tuner-Error header.

I believe that the issue with EplusTV not showing up in the Sports Section has to do with the provided guide information. While I certainly don't understand the specifics, I am guessing that this post points the way.
EPlusTV is such a great addition, but it is a lot of content. Was hoping that the Sport Section would help manage it all. @m0ngr31, any chance you might look at how the guide data is loaded so it is compatible? Or alternatively let me know what I am doing wrong.
Thank you so much for your contribution. It is much loved and used around here.
Oh sweet, I'll get that added!
I actually got a PR today to solve this, so I'll cut a new release soon

As I mentioned way up in this thread, guide items need the “Sports event” tag. This was never added to guide items in EPlusTV, so the airings don’t appear as live sporting events in Channels. This includes the Sports Section and any channel collections set to show Sports, including the stock one in the client.
I’ve opened a pull request on EPlusTV to add it so hopefully it gets merged soon.
