ESPN+ & FOX Sports with Custom Channels via EPlusTV

[babsonnexus]

@Sparky Also, search this thread for advice on a couple of little things you need to do differently with Windows. Also, search this forum for advice on things you should do to set up Docker Desktop so it does not eat all your memory.

ESPN+ & FOX Sports with Custom Channels via EPlusTV

It is if you do not limit how many resources Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) can take over, which it will use just about everything if you don't! Follow Microsoft's directions here: Here is my .wslconfig that works perfectly: # Settings apply across all Linux distros running on WSL 2 [wsl2] # Limits VM memory to use no more than 4 GB, this can be set as whole numbers using GB or MB memory=1GB # Sets the VM to use two virtual processors processors=1 # Specify a custom Linux kernel to u…

ESPN+ & FOX Sports with Custom Channels via EPlusTV

I and others have made several posts above about how to do this in Windows. Just search for "Windows" in the thread. I can see right away that you are not following the directions for the config directory.

Does anybody know how to schedule recordings for events that aren't live if using FOXSPORTS_ALLOW_REPLAYS = TRUE?

[rpaulmerrell]

Hi there,
Dod you get Fox sports as a regular channel?
I think you would have to allow replays so that a channel is assigned for the recording.

[Thomas_Andrews1]

same. any solution?

[m0ngr31]

I can confirm there is an issue with NBC Sports not getting event data. Not sure what's going on. I'll add it to things I'm investigating...

@m0ngr31

I can confirm there is an issue with NBC Sports not getting event data.

Could it be related to this?

NBC Sports RSNs: Stream Not Available

The new nbc.com/live streams are not compatible unfortunately. It is not likely that these could be readded, unless they old stream website starts working again.

@tmm1

No, it looks like they're in the middle of changing their streaming platform. We may lose access to all the stations on that website if they decide to switch over completely.

[m0ngr31]

Yeah, it appears that NBC changed the way they are handling streaming. Might have to rip out the current implementation until I figure something out

[m0ngr31]

Despite losing NBC Sports, I do have some exciting things coming down... I have the work done, but waiting until tomorrow to do some more tests

[rpaulmerrell]

Hi there,
Thanks so much for all the hard work.
Keep us posted on developments. The docker container has been working great.

[m0ngr31]

Okay, a decently sized update just dropped:

• NBC Sports has been ripped out. They changed their whole platform and everything is DRM'd now, so I'm not sure I can work around this
• MLB.tv has been added
• I think the most requested one is having dedicated channels for linear content

There were a few bugs that I fixed in there as well, but they were more edge cases than anything else.

[m0ngr31]

I found a bug, but fixed that. So if you saw it, just pull the new version

[rpaulmerrell]

Hi there,
Thanks for the good work.
The MLB part did work dn streams are doing nicely.

[JMcGuire]

@m0ngr31 What is the "Proxy keyed *.ts files" variable used for?

[m0ngr31]

If it's set, it will download encrypted segments from the manifest and cache them locally. Useful if you're not using Channels and want more than one stream per event without hitting your max

[JMcGuire]

@m0ngr31 great job adding MLB.tv, I've tried it out and so far it seems to be performing better than the other method in a few ways (quicker to tune and more reliable with a VPN).

A few questions...

1. Is it necessary to reserve a set number of channels if I am only using EPlusTV for MLB and other linear channels, or will it auto populate the active variables?

2. Now that Gracenote has guide data for MLB.tv can you integrate the tvg-id into the m3u so that Channels can automatically pull the full guide listings?

MLB.TV for Channels

Wanted to put this out there... now that MLB.tv is on fubo, the guide data for games is available on gracenote. Here's what I've done as a test w/ SchedulesDirect. Those callsigns, of what I've tested thus far, all resolve in Channels. <station number="309" subnumber="0" callsign="MLBTVBI" name="MLB Big Inning" alternate="">119153</station> <station number="310" subnumber="0" callsign="FUBARI" name="MLB - Arizona Diamondbacks" alternate="">136199</station> <station number="311" subnumber="…

What a great docker, thanks so much @m0ngr31!

I installed it last night -- just not for ESPN+ content, as I don't subscribe -- but for integration of the other channels' content. Is EPlusTV designed to work that way? I did enter my regular ESPN.com login as well as DirecTV login credentials, as instructed.

I had to remove a "START_CHANNEL=7000" variable for the Automatic Channel Collection feature to work. With "prefer channel-number from M3U" selected in Custom Channels setting, the channels from EPlusTV start at 1 and go to 150. But with "ignore channel-number from M3U" selected, the channels start at 21919 instead, which I think I prefer.

And since I didn't want ESPN+ content to appear, I made sure to include this flag:

ESPNPLUS=FALSE

Here is my full run command:

docker run --restart unless-stopped --name EPlusTV -p 8000:8000 -v config_dir:/app/config -e ESPN=TRUE -e ESPN2=TRUE -e ESPN3=TRUE -e ESPNU=TRUE -e SEC=TRUE  -e SECPLUS=TRUE -e ESPNPLUS=FALSE -e FOXSPORTS=TRUE -e FOXSPORTS_MAX_RESOLUTION=UHD/HDR m0ngr31/eplustv:latest

Anyway, everything seems to be working great. However ESPN+ content is still appearing in the guide. And any attempt to play that content gets a "404 Not Found" error, as expected. Content from other channels of course plays fine.

My question is, is it possible to just exclude ESPN+ content entirely from my guide since I'm not able to watch it anyway? I did try a "delete and recreate the database" command, to no avail. Should I not have logged into ESPN.com at all, and if not, how to manage that now? Will I still be able to watch ESPN2, ESPN3 and ESPNU content once logged out?

Thanks for any feedback, and thanks again for a really great docker.

[m0ngr31]

Can you post your full log? That variable should prevent ESPN+ events from being pulled down, but maybe there is a bug there

[kthomas1059]

I haven’t played much with the latest but yes. ESPN+ is the only variable on by default. You would need to enter ESPN=True and ESPNPLUS=False to get just content playing on ESPN.

[rpaulmerrell]

I subscribe to ESPN+ and MLBTV. The docker was able to pull up the stream when the other docker couldn't play the stream.
I love the APP.

@m0ngr31

Can you post your full log? That variable should prevent ESPN+ events from being pulled down, but maybe there is a bug there

Sure thing, here ya go, I removed the EPlusTV docker and added it back fresh, refreshed guide data, and then tried to play a game in the grid from ESPN+ to show what happens.

Here's the log, I did edit the authorization keys just in case...

I haven’t played much with the latest but yes. ESPN+ is the only variable on by default. You would need to enter ESPN=True and ESPNPLUS=False to get just content playing on ESPN.

Thanks, yes, I've had have those environment variables set, and yet am still seeing all the ESPN+ games in my grid.
