Yeah unfortunately right now chunks of it are broken, like Fox.

Joe was always very helpful and generous! He will be missed.

I have some familiarity with the code base, and I’d be willing to head up a continuation of this project right now. I would still need collaborators to support all of the different services.

First I will set it up under a new repo and try to replicate the build process. When it's ready, I'll share it here.

Awesome news thanks Tony! I think this will be a great way to remember Joe and what he built here

New repo here: GitHub - tonywagner/EPlusTV

New Docker image here: https://hub.docker.com/r/tonywagner/eplustv

Edit to add: You should be able to seamlessly swap the new Docker image (“tonywagner/eplustv”) into your existing Docker compose/run commands.

Should we delete our old docker and add this one?

Thank you for taking over this project!

Not sure how you are running the Docker container, but you should just be able to swap the new image “tonywagner/eplustv” in place of the old one “m0ngr31/eplustv” in your Docker run/compose commands.

Thank you. That worked perfectly through Portainer.

Will this work with the new ESPN Unlimited service?

I just found this a couple of days ago when ESPN and FOX launched their new services. Works great for ESPN+ but think it will need some additional work to bring in the new services. Feels like ESPN Unlimited should work similar to current ESPN+. Also sounds like ESPN+ will be moving under the new umbrella anyway. Hopefully it can be looked into. Glad to see @tonywagner pick this up. The new image installed perfectly into OrbStack. Thanks.

Thank you for taking this on!!

Just pulled latest version, doesn't see any Fox events so it looks like that'll need to be fixed. This broke a couple of months ago. Might be a non-issue soon if someone can get a vlc-bridge container running for new Fox One service.

Yeah Fox implementation currently is broken. I'm assuming it's because their new streaming service.

If someone wants to lend me credentials via private message, I'd be happy to take a look at getting FOX working again! I'm just an OTA guy. :slight_smile:

Are there some FS1 and FS2 events that this pulls that aren't on the regular FS1 and FS2 channels? Kinda like ESPN+ events???

Is there a link to the changelog between updates? Just curious. Thanks

Just the Github commit history, I guess. I'll try to include the version numbers in future commit messages.

From what I saw before when it was working, all of the FS1 and 2 events were also on the linear channels. Might have missed some though.
