ESPN+ & FOX Sports with Custom Channels via EPlusTV

Looks like WNBA changed their API backend. I got a sample tonight and will try to update the EPlusTV code in the next few days.

NFL+ Authentication?

When I attempt to authenticate for the NFL source the re-direct to NFL.com works and the authentication on the website also works. Within the container the NFL authentication does not complete. I have updated and also re-installed the container with the same results. The log shows the following:

[email protected] start
ts-node -r tsconfig-paths/register index.tsx
Failed to find Response internal state key
=== E+TV v4.15.6 starting ===
HTTP server started on port 8000

Those messages are normal for the container startup.
You need to look further down in the log for any errors.

Is MLB Network gone for good unless you pay for a package? I can't link my TV provider anymore at mlb.com from what I can see, so access is gone unless you subscribe to one of their packages. This worked earlier this year so something must have changed.

The MLB Network page still has a banner saying link your TV provider but when you click on it there's no way to actually do so, they want you to subscribe to MLB+.

I have mlb network on the mlb app.
Linked through a provider.

They arereally pushing the mlb plus subscription.

Deleted my response. Thought it worked but saw the same thing happen to me when I went through logging in. No way to link, only subscribe.

I downloaded the MLB app and tried to link provider there, was no way to do it.

I think they've removed this option unless somebody can point out a path.

I've seen that page go wonky for days on end, and then work. Keep trying.

Just wanted to mention that watching FIFA games via the Fox 4K feed (Fox One authentication) works extremely well, unlike when using the Fox Sports authentication that constantly crapped out!!

Not sure what is different about it, but Fox One WORKS :smiley:

FoxOne uses different APIs, authenticates against a completely different service, and pulls a different stream. Even though the end result of both is that the 4k feed plays they are playing from different playlists.

It has been rock solid for me as well for both Fox 4k and FS1 4K throughout the world cup.

Which source do I add to CHDVR to get the Fox 4k events? Normal, Event Channels or Linear.

Linear. The Fox and FS1 channels both switch to 4k automatically when it is available.

That's awesome, thank you

Just want to see if this is normal behavior. When watching a 4K broadcast from FS1, Channels stats show the native resolution at 4K but scales it back to 1080. When I record, it records at 4K resolution per recording details. I'm assuming the playback will be 4K".
Client is FireTV Cube 3rd Generation.

That is normal on android based devices. It says it is is scaled to 1080 no matter what the resolution of the video is. That is because the info screen is being scaled to 1080, not the actual video.

See: Channels says "Scaled Resolution: 1920 x 1080" for a 4k stream on a 4k TV

I enabled UHD/HDR events in Fox One but am still just getting 720p for Cup. But I didn't bounce the container after I enabled the flag, so I just did that. We'll see tonight. Y'all just have UHD on and Only 4K off? Because I want the mix of both and that used to work long ago for Fox Sports events.

Last night's game was 720p for whatever reason. They are generally 4K.
