Sorry, but not really.
Are you sure it's not just tuning to the CBS Sports HQ channel (station ID 108919) via one of your other sources? Because the "cbstve://www.cbs.com/live-tv/stream/sports/" deeplink will launch the CBS app, it will not "tune within the Channels interface."
Send us more info, video or screenshots maybe?
I'm attempting to determine the coding needed to open the LocalTV+ app, but can't seem to make it work.
localtvplus:// and localtv+:// don't work. Any suggestions?
Don’t be surprised if that app just doesn’t support deep-linking (yet?) Very many don’t.
I must have misunderstood deep linking. I thought the "depth" was to point within the app. I just wanted to open it!
No, apologies if my reply doesn’t apply, I should have been more specific. There will be a way to launch it, I’ll see if I can figure it out.. But I wrongly assumed you’d want it to open to a channel! Sorry about that.
In the meantime this app “DeepLink” app has proven to be very helpful to me when trying out different launch shortcuts

Has anyone been able to open the PBS app on tvOS with a "DeepLink"?
Yes:

Thanks
I've been unable to figure this out from that app. It keeps crashing.
What crashes? The DeepLink app? That's weird. I've never had that happen, when my link attempts fail, the DeepLink app just sits there. When they succeed, the target app (like PBS or Fandango) either launch, or a permission dialog pops up its first time.
Since DeepLink is a TestFlight beta, you may want to report those crashes to the developer.
I tried a few variations for LocalTV+ and also wasn't successful. Since that app only works in Massachusetts and I couldn't dive in deeper. Maybe someone else will get further along to a soliution.
I have just lost my local Fox station in Tampa to ATSC 3.0 DRM (My antenna can't pick up the 1.0 station) and I can get the local live stream on the FOX app.
I suspect I can use Stream Links to put the local station back on my guide, but I am lost with all the back and forth.
Is that true? Is this still in Beta?
The stream link would need to bring up the fox app rather than play through channels.
If you want to watch fox, you will need to look at some of th eprojects in the group used to bring in content protected with DRM.
Has anyone collected every known and current Stream Link Station in a spreadsheet or something? If so, I'm quite interested and have a plan for it in regards to this:
Thanks, but that looks like its for YouTube Live streams. I'm actually looking for Stream Links, like hulu://watch/9ff633cc-f14d-4a7b-8ca3-3å8ef99def692. I can see plenty of them in this thread, I just didn't know if anyone collected them already?
I'm a bit confused. Here's my dilemma. My cable TV is purchased by our HOA and they didn't get the 4K set top boxes. I was able to get ATSC 3 stations with an attic antenna and HDHomerun Flex (but I can't get any 1.0 stations) and the antenna channels were much sharper and colorful than the cable. One by one, the stations went DRM. I can get the major ATSC 1.0 channels from a different market but they carry different sports teams. My TVE doesn't have local channels. I subscribe to Peacock, Paramount, etc and I can get the local channels (sports on ABC is carried by ESPN App and CBS by the Paramount APP and NBC by the Peacock APP and FOX by the Fox app .....) and I would love to integrate them into Channels. Is this even possible?
I guess my other alternative is a Zapper Box.
Did you check the box in the Experimental section of the server settings, for local channel support in TVE?
Yes…Actually Fox appears as available but I just get a forever whirlybird.
