ESPN+ & FOX Sports with Custom Channels via EPlusTV

Thanks. I just updated.

BTW, I used vlc to record the tonight's Stars game and a few WHL games. The audio was good in all of them. Victory+ must be doing something that ffmpeg and streamlink don't like. We'll see how this works. In the past, I've had sources that only worked or worked best with the others.

Can anybody here test Paramount+ with the current EPlusTV container? There is a report of it not working for a user, and I was just curious if that was universal or user-specific.

I just tried a couple of events. Both worked for me.

Paramount changed their stream to use dai.google.com as the base url. I was unable to connect presumably because of ad blockers. Adding dns directly to the container fixed it up.

On another note, when starting up I am getting the message that I am not on the latest version because of a mismatch between the version and the version check number. There is no . after the v in the version, but is one there in the check.

The top right of the screen is showing this:
v4.14.10 (latest v.4.14.10)
and it is showing up in the logs too:
=== Newer version v.4.14.10 available, consider updating ===

This is obviously not an issue, but thought I would make you aware.

I also confirm that Paramount is not working. Getting 404 error even after restarting container and stack.

Still working for me. I just tried the Serie A Hellas Verona / Bologna match and it played with no issues.

Weird, it's working for me now too!

I have paramount plus enabled and I’m able watch cbs sports hq and golazo. Should I be able to watch the bills broncos game? It is not showing up at all, just curious if I have something setup wrong.

Interesting. In Eplus, I'm showing it on CBS and NFL channels, but not on Paramount. It's not showing in fruitdeeplinks on Paramount either.

Edit: It is showing in fruitdeeplinks.

I just enabled paramount in eplus a few days ago. I’m not sure what to expect. Normally does it show the cbs nfl football games through eplus with paramount?

Now that you brought it up, I don't remember a Paramount+ event showing.

It is showing up for me for Paramount+, CBSE & NFL+. It should be there for Paramount+, just not on a linear channel.

How often should we have to Re-Authenticate a network?
Seems like every month I have to go into the docker web page and Re-Authenticate Fox One.

Otherwise the linear channel for my local Fox station drops off from the /linear-channels.m3u playlist

I have not had to re-authenticate fox one except for one time where the local fox station dropped off because my ip address changed more than 5 times. To fix that I stopped the stack and restarted and it brought the channel back, and if I remember correctly I might not have had to re-authenticate then either.

Just to check, I re-authenticated, but paramount+ still doesn't show up.

Is this my problem, here is my source in channels

http://192.168.1.152:8000/linear-channels.m3u?gracenote=include

Is using linear in the source url causing it to not show up?

I'll have to check the token expirations next time it happens.
This is what they look like now for Fox One after Re-Authenticating yesterday.

"adobe_auth": {
  "tokenExpiration": 1768775254000  (Sunday, January 18, 2026 2:27:34 PM)

}

You need to have two sources, one for linear and one for non-linear. They use different m3u’s and the non-linear also uses an xml for guide data.

Just for comparison, I'm using the "Normal" m3u and xml settings. Still no paramount+

Just set up a second source for a non linear source and the cbs nfl game is not showing up. It’s also not listed in the xml data. Thanks for verifying it should be there. @tonywagner Is there anything I can do to troubleshoot this while we know there is an active game on cbs via paramount plus?
