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

My logins are all user: email address. I think some I can use either a userid or an email address but not sure which ones those are. And I believe one of the streaming you can use your phone number which I do not subscribe any longer.

I am talking about Hulu type login. But I think in the past with Frontier FiOS I use email as well but that has been a while.

CBS.... While playing around with I got this a couple times. After I said "try again" it worked.

You've reached the maximum number of simultaneous video streams for your account.
To view this video, close the other videos you're watching and try again.

Also, it appears once I login I can close the browser and then when I open and use the URL I no longer need to login. I remember early on with some of the TVE Sources I had to login manually? Meaning when I added the source I had to change windows to login. Maybe that was a special case in the very early setup for TVE. Anyway, I wonder if you did this the same way on the initial login it would no long need to happen?

I’m getting Fox on the Fire tv, but not my Apple TV. It is favored in settings

Running pre-release version 2019.10.11.2133
6002 FOX is a no show, but can get 6000 NBC, no problem.

6002 FOX doesn't show in my TVE channel editor list even though I'm able to authenticate and view via browser at fox.com/live.

How do I make it appear in my TVE device channel listing?

Does it play live tv on that site? What is the callsign for your local station?

Right now for my local affiliate KTXL it states "Regular programming will resume at 5pm" (in about 9 minutes).
I can live view FS1, FS2, FNC, FBN, BTN, Fox Deportes.

Your fox station is not in the "owned and operated" list above, and does not offer a 24/7 live stream. Some prime-time programming is available via the web stream, but that means the stream is only active for a few hours a day.

OK, didn't read that deep into it.
So affiliate stations won't work, only owned-operated by FOX?
Does that mean it won't appear in Channels TVE since it's not a FOX owned and operated station?

P.S. My live view of my local affiliate in the browser just started playing in the background while I'm typing this.

I disabled NBC, ABC and FOX in LOCAST which is LAST in my list in the DVR. I then created a favorite for the new 6000,6001,6002 versions. But on some of my scheduled recording is shows the 7000 channel? One I think showed both.

How do I fix this? Do I need to reboot my DVR or "restart"?

Try pause/resume the pass

We only support integration of FOX stations that have 24/7 live streams, and fox.com/live only provides those for the 17 stations that they own and operate.

OK, thanks for clarifying. Don't really want to use TVE bandwidth since I get the affiliate station via OTA and Cable anyway. Was just trying to keep up on cord-cutting for when that day comes.

I just noticed this earlier tonight. In my testing I noticed that NBC isn't available with my PSVue subscription in my area but it IS available with my Spectrum Choice credentials.

So far it works great. This could solve my issue with our OTA NBC watching/recording viewing via the Nvidia Shield since it has that hardware issue of pixelation if I don't change the decoder settings in the Shield App. That was the only station that I found that issue with on the Shield. I can't wait to test this out further tomorrow but so far it looks pretty good!

You guys really are pretty awesome with what you have created here! Thanks!

As a note: decoder settings only matter for playback, not recording. Absolutely nothing is modified about the incoming stream upon record (unless you have an Extend and are transcoding on the tuner). The only time the decode comes in to play is when you play back (or "decode") a stream/recording.

I’m doing the same as you, but Vue has NBC available also. Could be a glitch. Probably going to drop Vue, because choice is such a good deal.

I think I will drop Vue as well. I wanted to test something so signed up for a month but I really get all the channels I want with the Choice package.

I receive ABC and NBC. I am still not seeing NBC on my FireTV 4K and AppleTV 4K. I see it in mu iOS apps and web interface. ABC shows up fine on both.

How do we get the latest build (v2019.10.11.0022) ?
On my web gui, I check for update and it says up-to-date.

With 2019.09.23.2227

Shift+click, or click-and-hold.

Thank you.
