When will the fix be made on the branch that we can pull? Really need to get this because it's no longer working in prismcast. When I check the admin web page on my server it says version 4.15.4 is the latest.

Whenever @tonywagner has a chance to take a look at the PR, test, approve and merge it.

#3497

I'll try to get this up today.

and gotham? :grinning:

Thanks Tony!

New version 4.15.6 has the code fixes for Fox locals and Gotham. I wasn't able to test those so please chime in here with your results!

MLB Big Inning is also restored.

Gotham is working! thanks!

#3502

Glad to hear it!

I feel dumb because I tried these exact changes like a month ago, but apparently something else about my test setup causes this provider to fail for me (I am out of area, and not a subscriber). But I'm glad it works for you.

Thanks Tony!
All Fox One linear channels are working again for me, including the Local Fox station.

#3504

Can confirm, Fox local working great again!

#3505

What is the best way to set this up with Channels if only using Fox and B1G+. I want to have the Fox linear channels but also the B1G+ events which aren't linear??

#3506

I assume you'll just have to set up two sources in Channels, one using the EPlusTV linear M3U and the other using the non-linear M3U.

#3507

EIther 2 or 3 sources. If you don't care about TMZ, Masked Singer, LiveNow or other Fox stations that don't have gracenote data then it is 2 sources otherwise it would be 3.

#3508

Gotcha. Thanks guys!

#3509

Should these be set up as MPEG-TS or HLS?

#3510

Set it up as an HLS

Container crashes sometimes. Just copied logs from this one. They are at this link since too big to paste.

Hello,

I recently had my eplus tv channels working but recently nothing loads. On my apple tv I get the ! with the triangle and on the browser I get the following error: "The media could not be loaded, either because the server or network failed or because the format is not supported." Can someone point me in the right direction to fix this?

First thing to try is restarting the EPlusTV container. If that doesn’t help, then click the “Rebuild EPG” button in the EPlusTV web interface and re-sync your EPlusTV source in Channels DVR. If it still doesn’t work, then share your EPlusTV container log here.
