Double-check your login details. I'm using the docker with MLB, and it is working great.
I like how it works with my VPN.
It's possible you might have to escape your credentials if you are using special characters or something, depending on how you are starting the container.
disregard everything is working, the channels I was having trouble with are blacked out in my region, is it possible that you can show that when you press on the channel that it shows it is blackedout instead of giving a error of not being able to play the channel thanks.

That could take some work but I'll look into it
@m0ngr31 Apologies if this has already been asked. I used the same Docker run command on an M1 Mac and all channels seem to show up on one line in the channels app. Same exact Docker run command on an intel Mac and the channels show as desired. Any ideas or a link to a post I may have missed?

What version are you running? What's your docker run command look like? I don't have an M1 to test against, but I'm not doing anything specific for that so there must be something else funky going on
docker run -p 8000:8000 -e ESPN3=true -e USE_LINEAR=true -e START_CHANNEL=10000 -e SECPLUS=true --name eplusTV -v config_dir:/app/config m0ngr31/eplustv
I've tried it without USE_LINEAR as well. This works fine on the intel Mac but the M1 causes issues. The intel Mac is running Ubuntu and the M1 is running the latest macOS. Both have whatever is the latest version of docker
Thanks for the help!
So ESPN3 and SEC+ are not linear channels. So you shouldn't need to use the USE_LINEAR var on that...
Let's try this:
Run this in your config directory:
rm *.db
Then try running the container like this:
docker run -p 8000:8000 -e ESPN3=true -e START_CHANNEL=10000 -e SECPLUS=true --name eplusTV -v config_dir:/app/config m0ngr31/eplustv
would ESPN plus need Linear? It is enabled by default isn't it?
Ok that seems to have worked. A couple of the channels show that it could not fetch playlist (mets braves game but it's currently off air) and then TCU vs Texas. Others work though
You only need linear if you want ESPN/ESPN2/FS1/ect to have their programming on the same dedicated channels
ah ok that makes sense. I have those thru my TVE login for Directv so I'm primarily using this for ESPN+, 3, and SEC+
It seems to be working on both Intel and M1 now. Like to have both options since one box goes thru a VPN
Thanks again for the help! Glad to test out any issues on this M1 install if you ever need it
Earlier, I upgraded to the Disney+/Hulu/ESPN+ bundle, which saves me some money. I was not specifically interested in ESPN+ but it's included so why not.
And being a big fan of Channels DVR, I like some more channels. 
I installed the docker and it seems to be running without problems as I can see in the Windows Docker Desktop app:
However, I'm unable to load the page:
The other docker page loads fine at port 7777:
So it doesn't seem to be a problem with "localhost".
I even tried http://127.0.0.1:8000 and http://192.168.0.155:8000. Same 404 error. Everything is running on a single Windows PC.
I can also load the Channels DVR settings page either with localhost:8089 or 127.0.0.1:8089.
Any clues how to troubleshoot this?

You just throw the M3U and xmlt into the custom channel settings. I don’t believe there is a viewable page in browser.
Thank you. It worked as you suggested. 
I have had this running for a few months, but I’m not certain on the expected way to install updates. For the one update I installed, I created a new container and started from scratch. Is that the only way to update or is there another method? If so, any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
Also, I’ve had hit or miss success with ESPN+ events showing up in the app. For example, right now there are many NCAA baseball games on ESPN+ right now, but the guide in Channels doesn’t show most of them. I just restarted the EPlusTV container and redownloaded the guide data in channels right before these screenshots. Any suggestions on this?
I’ve tuned to all of those games from the “On Now" tab in the last 15 minutes. A lot of very competitive games right now!!!!

I have looked for resources on how to update instead of starting over each time and it looks like it’s possible but for me it was just easier to delete and start from scratch.
As far as your question about ESPN+ events not showing.
Do you have the setting for Linear turned on? (It is set to off by default so if you didn’t set the EV then it is off.) Beyond that it could be an authentication issue. Your screenshot showed Fox sports events were populating correctly so maybe it is an issue with the espn authentication during set-up. The only ESPN+ event I saw was “Squeeze Play” - strange that it came through but others didn’t.
The linear variable is set. I didn’t think that mattered though since ESPN+ isn’t part of the linear networks. Typically I see many more events than the screenshot but every time I have checked, numerous events are missing. I wouldn’t think it is an authentication issue since I’m able to see some events and view them without issue.
@m0ngr31 - Any suggestions on update protocols and the missing ESPN+ events?
