Playground Custom Channels
#2205

Nevermind, nothing tells you how to add it to channels
Not worth the aggravation

#2206

Literally first post, first sentence. Link to github project with all instructions.

#2207

I see nothing there on how to get it into Channels. I guess you need some kind of M3U and xml guide, but I have no idea where to get it.

#2208

You can find it in the Using section

I see that, how do I create those?

#2210

Use your browser and go to http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:8185 (use your server's ip address) and it will show you the info you need.

#2211

Change ip to the docker machine ip and change port to 8000. Like this xxx.xxx..x:8000

It just times out

#2213

Sorry, @Rice is correct, your port should be 8000.

#2214

I got invalid source. Is iya problem that the docker address ends in /24?

#2215

Post a screenshot of your config

#2216

Use the ip of the machine that docker is running on. If docker is on the same machine as your dvr server, you can find the ip in the dvr settings under status, server information, net.
Use that ip followed by :8000

You first need to setup some things in eplus. To do this open a browser window and type the ip of the docker folllowed by :8000

To add to this if you can get to this page then it will work in channels. If you cannot navigate to 127.0.0.1:8000 or local.ip.address.ofcomputer:8000 then there is no way it will work in channels

here is my channels address Advertising dvr-laptop-rnb3gta7.local. via 2 networks: [192.168.12.132, 172.18.64.1]

#2220

Ok so channels is in a docker container? If so you will need to use the 172.18 addr of the eplus continer when configuring channels. Containers cannot communicate through the host. They have to use the local container addr.

At least thats the way is on linux. Windows may be different, a windows user can chime in on that one

I've been running these channels for a week now, and they are great. This is an excellent add-on to Channels! I've enabled all of the sources I have a subscription to, including CBS Sports. What is the CBS Sports add-on exactly? Is it a live feed when sports are showing on CBS?

Just curious, On the web interface, exactly what does the rebuild EPG button do?

#2224

It will clear the current schedule and will re-download and schedule all of your providers

Also along those lines, what does "Reset Active Playing Channels" do? Does it remove all tokens and require re-authenticating?
