Experimental: Local Networks (NBC, ABC, FOX) in some major metros via TVE

NBC from Spectrum in Dallas not working. Shows video but very slow and no audio. All other major stations work fine.

@tmm1 Do you know why I am still not seeing FOX?

Picture is above

Did you try Rescan New Channels or Rescan All Channels?

Yep now ABC isn't working...I miss locast...

So you lost ABC now?

Does KFXK 51 stream 7x24 on https://www.fox.com/live/channel/KFXK/
I'm surprised if it does as both KFXK and my Fox affiliate KTXL are owned by Nexstar Media Group.
If I try to view mine on the website it says "Regular programming will resume at 8:00 PM"

Yes fox works with my sudddenlink credentials

It's playing Hell's Kitchen right now?

If non-Fox O&O stations work, then please add KTXL Fox 40

Doesn't look like any of those stations actually have 24/7 feeds on fox.com/live. If it says "Regular programming will resume at 8pm" then it won't work with Channels.

Thanks, that's what I thought.

Why would @mavsfan815 KFXK-51 be any different? https://www.nexstar.tv/stations/kfxk/
I would think that station would display "Regular programming will resume at 7:00 PM" (for CDT or MDT timezones)

And @snsells WJZY-46 https://www.nexstar.tv/stations/wjzy/

There's no difference. None of those work.

That would be a bad experience if they showed in the guide since only the primetime shows would appear and the rest would be blocks displaying "Local Programming" with the show image displaying "SIGN OFF".

For an idea of what it would look like, go to zap2it.com click the button [Change Provider or Time Zone] Select a timezone and look at channel 4 FOX

If any intrepid souls want to test using a Custom Channel m3u, here are the gracenote tvc-guide-stationid's that correspond to the schedule you see on zap2it

Starting today, I am seeing two NBC TVE channels both with number 6000. One has guide data and the other doesn't.

Yeah, I noticed this as well. In my case both NBC slots have guide data. I'm using Channels Collections and I've removed (only one is in the collection) NBC and it's gone from my Guide. I add it back (just the one) and two show up in the collection. Odd.

Glad to know it wasn't just me.

Need diagnostics. Might be getting confused trying to pull in telemundo. Do you get TELE on nbc.com/live? I don't here so not fully tested.

@tmm1 This is what I am now getting on ABC

I tried and yes, I receive Telemundo via nbc.com/live

I, too, am seeing the double NBC as of last evening. I believe you are right about it being related to Telemundo, as this is what I saw when checking the lineup:
