Will CHANNELS add Puffer as a cable provider on TVE so we will be able to watch the channels they offer live and free through the Stanford University project?
Puffer is only limited to 500 streams at a time. If I recall with what the Antenna Man Tyler said about that.
How is that a reason not to add the login to the TVE?

Puffer is not a cable provider and it doesn't support TVE login.
It would make more sense to add a Custom Channel, but that's not possible because Puffer uses a new experimental streaming protocol instead of any standard that Custom Channels supports.

UPDATE;
I've lost access to WTVC in the Nashville DMA. WKRN in Nashville doesn't offer a TVE stream. But up until a few days ago I could get WTVC from Chattanooga. Now I get an error that it's not in my subscription. If I recall correctly the mods had to manually add this channel to my subscription line-up years back. I'm not sure if the URL has changed. I can still get WTVC on abc.go.com with my Spectrum subscription login. Wondered if someone could help? Thanks
Did you try ticking and unticking the "Local Channels TVE" box...or rescanning?
Just tried that. I got, it added WDEF, Chattanooga CBS. But still no WTVC, Chattanooga ABC. It says "notAuthorized: Access to this program is not included in your Spectrum TV subscription. To learn more about adding this program, visit https://www.spectrum.net or call (855) 757-7328."

Did you update to the latest prerelease?
Make sure you did all of this
I lost WKRN-ABC yesterday and sent the log to support. I can sign into the live stream on ABC.com with my DTVS credentials. I upgraded to the prerelease and did several rescans. All that did was drop the local FOX channel. I did not try to toggle local networks off and on. I'll try that when the FOX channel should be active tonight.
