ESPN+ & FOX Sports with Custom Channels via EPlusTV

4K UI. Jeesh "is this a complete sentence"... Board won't let me post the answer.

Ah OK and when you wrote ATV did you mean Android TV or AppleTV?

Android TV sorry. I could be wrong. Thought I read it somewhere.

Can someone check if the Nebraska basketball game is being pulled in via B1G+? Thanks

It was. The game on saturday is also going to be on BTN+.

Hmmmm I checked several times at different times and it never populated my guide. There were several other B1G games on. Will try again Sat thanks.

You may need to increase your channel number.

Were there more than 200 programs going on last night? What do most people put? I just changed mine to 250. Wish it was an option on the web interface so I didn't have to install Portainer :frowning:

I'm not sure which services you have enabled, but ESPN+ alone can have over 300 events on some days when you include the dual team feeds for NHL, team specific NCAA postgame shows, bonus cams and alternate languages. ESPN3 can add another 30-50 events to that list on some days.

So how do you know what to put? Does it hurt anything to change to 400?

I use Container Manager on my Synology for E+ so all I had to do was stop the container, change the setting, the restart the container. I had to increase my channel count also when one of my teams wasn’t showing up.

What do you set yours to?

I set mine to 750, which is the maximum number of stations Channels allows in an m3u.

I’m upped from 200 to 250. Hopefully, that'll suit my needs.

Are there any instructions anywhere for how to set this up? I did some searches here, but there are now almost 2000 posts in this thread, and I didn't notice any instructions over on Github, but I could be looking in the wrong place. If there are instructions in this thread, maybe they could be pinned to the first post?

I got it running (I think) through Project One-Click, and I pulled the m3u and xml out of the log file from that setup, so I was able to set up a source (properly, I hope). And I created a custom channel collection with just the sports category.

I don't know where to input any of my credentials for various accounts, such as Peacock. I saw the message at the end of Project One-Click to check the EPlus TV Portainer-Log "for login links and activation codes if standard output is initially blank." I assume that means the log in the Portainer stack, but I didn't see anything there that jumped out at me.

Thanks for any help, especially if this has been asked many times before. Or perhaps I'm just uniquely stupid.

Go into Portainer, then the COntainers and find the eplus container. Click on LOGS there. It will tell you what to do next. You may need to stop the container and restart it.

Everything is now through a web gui and you can pick the services you want to link.

Ignore the below: I get in at port 8185

Thanks! I'm getting a "not found" error. l'm heading out, so I'll have to troubleshoot later. I tried going to:

http://192.168.7.180:8000

and also just

192.168.7.180:8000

(That was the IP in my log in the Project One-Click install)

Nothing new to add, just want to report that all of my NFL games have been working great and I love getting college football from Fox in 4K.

Such an awesome addition to channels!

I’ve had several scheduled recordings which were part of a custom pass I created for the Detroit Red Wings via ESPN+ skipped and market as watched in scheduled recordings. Any thoughts on what might be causing this?
