ESPN+ & FOX Sports with Custom Channels via EPlusTV

so I got this up and running but I don't see where to log in with my espn+ info at?

Doesn't work with espn channels since they went drm

Can you use livesportsontv scrape to pull YouTube live events ? What's the best way to grab YouTube without having to use chrome capture?

Local Fox 4K still working?

Not for me, the Big Noon game is 720p.

I have started to no get the proper Fox affiliate pushed to Channels via the Fox linear section. My provider is DirecTV Stream and I am in the Atlanta area. I should be getting Fox 5 WAGA Atlanta but I receive Fox 13 WTVT Tampa. DirectTV apps and Gemini boxes all show the correct channel. Any ideas?

Per discussed above, re-authenticate your tokens and restart the container on a regular (preferably daily) basis. These are the ways to fix this issue (and most others when they happen).

Yeah I'm finding that I have to do a daily restart of this container, FDL, and FC because they all go in the weeds at some point.

Even the PBS feeds bridge will eventually go bad and that's as simple as it gets. So I probably should bounce all my channels Docker containers on the regular lol.

I wonder if it will work for me....We get ESPN + as a free benefit with our cable subscription. I log on with Google and it automatically puts out cable name on screen and we get all access....but nothing in Channels

This is my first NFL season using EPlusTV, and I was able to authenticate my Sunday Ticket subscription. To confirm, will the linear channels automatically pick up Sunday's games? I checked the TV guide but did not see any Sunday Ticket games listed, so I would appreciate clarification on when they typically appear.

Sunday Ticket won't show up under the Linear channels. It's under the all other. Some of us have setup a separate instance of EPlusTV to just have the NFL Sunday Tickets. Just setup the channel count to be around 12 and you should be able to get all the games in a tight range of channels.

Nope, it won't work for you. ESPN went DRM long ago so this is not the project for that. The easy way is to fire up Prismcast for linear ESPN channels, the more advanced way is to investigate the Fruitdeeplinks project which will get tons of ESPN+ events in Channels.

I got ESPN Unlimited courtesy of my provider this summer, so I installed the Fruitdeeplinks Docker container and now I get more games than I could ever want. Might have to bounce it every day to keep it working, but that's okay.

Did anyone get Fox in 4k last weekend? Bueller??

This used to work, hopefully somebody will pick it up and figure it out. The weird thing is that it did work for the early rounds of the World Cup and then it went away.

Do you see any Sunday Ticket games yet if you refresh your EPlusTV guide? Thinking it might need this code update but I don't have Sunday Ticket to test: https://github.com/tonywagner/EPlusTV/pull/261

I have Sunday Ticket connected. I'm seeing what is described in the pull request in my guide.

Hmm, just seeing my local broadcast games showing up in the NFL Ticket Channels I have setup. Will have to investigate.

I dived into Fruitdeeplinks ...and it is something.......I'll let you know if I succeed.......I'd like to tape a football game to=night.

The new EPlusTV version 4.16.4 includes the proposed Sunday Ticket scheduling fix, so please update and refresh and let me know if it doesn't work!
