Maybe the guide refresh this morning helped because the gracenote channels are significantly more accurate this morning. I had tried to force a nee data pull yesterday but it didn't help. Happy it looks pretty good now. Thanks for responding!
seeing the same here... ill figure it out and report back.
Question for anyone who has successfully integrated prismcast:
I have successfully deployed Prismcast for ESPN etc as natively supported.
I attempted to set it up for FastChannels and ran the test. The first two checks are successful. The third test - end-to-end capture -- fails. I watched it open chrome and go to CCTV4. Ran the test a couple of more times and still failed.
Has anyone encountered that error and been able to resolve?
Edit to add: the failure is HTTP 500
Good point. It's on a Mac I run headless and get to via ARD, which I believe also uses TCP5900 (and 5988).
FWIW, I had this error as well and was able to easily install it using the homebrew instructions.
If you're on a Mac that might be an option.
It was in my code -- easy fix at least. I'll push out a small update this weekend to address it.

Thanks for responding. Correct - re-ad to CDvR. I made some edits to the feeds I created yesterday during setup - and was looking to refresh the guide. In some cases, it was almost instant, but another edit seems to be taking some time. No big deal, probably the database just catching up.
Very impressive tool - I really like that the search feature within channels now includes Pluto - before it was hit or miss. (Big spouse acceptance factor improvement.)
I'm now "curating". I had no idea how many Christmas Channels were out there.
If it helps at all, this is the result when the prismcast test fails:
And this is what is visible when chrome opens:
This didn't get any attention here, but seems FastChannels has introduced an issue with FrndlyTV.
See this thread for more detail:

Are those channels setup with Gracenote coverage, or using my EPG?
The channels only list when choosing "Missing Gracenote" so guessing your EPG.
The Huisman Frndly-TV channels docker /w Gracenote is working and showing the program images instead of logos.
Almost all the Frndly TV channels I see have Gracenote IDs stored.
How do you have the feed for these Frndly channels added to CDVR? Did you add it manually, or did you use the automated "Add to ChannelsDVR" button?
Also, go to admin/guide and filter by Frndly. If you see icons on the guide, then we can narrow down if it's FastChannels, or CDVR.

thats odd - I show Gracenote coverage on all those channels. Wonder if you have a setting wrong?
Humor me - disable your Frindly Source. Wait a few minutes for it to purge the channels from theDB. Then, re-setup Friendly feed. Do not use the gracenote coverage filter. Then, send me a screenshot of the feed setup.
also, go into CDVR and remove the feeds for Friendly you added originally. we'll recreate it with the new one from above.

Just so you see as much as possible, here's the feed setup:
This time there are no channels for has Gracenote or missing Gracenote.
and you forced a scrape? makes no sense why the feed would be blank.
Yes, I did. This doesn't make any sense, I agree. It's actually worse than before as I'm getting no channels in a feed.
FYI to anyone following in the future- we worked on this in a PM converation. RockandRoller had some special characters in his Frndly password that the scraper didn't like. All fixed now.
