FastChannels - FAST Channels aggregator/manager

There are a couple of possibilities here.

First, I would double check that both FastChannels and ah4c are showing they are adb authorized.

You can check FastChannels here:

And ah4c here:

Both need to show your device(s) as connected via adb. Green is good for both.

This is great news! Do you think the pixelation was being caused by transcoding issues with the GPU used by your other computer?

Yes, I'd guess that the pixelation was either the gpu itself or the closed captioning not being able to be rendered correctly by it.

Also, it looks like ah4c is not authorized. I've got a recording going on via the FastChannels bridge, so I'll try to authorize it afterward.

In my experience yes, but I've also backed my configuration up to a separate location, just to be safe (and it helped save me some trouble after the Portainer disaster I had early on).

Hey everyone, new user here but have most things working the way I want them to. Just can't get Tubi to find any channels.

I have configured it with my login details (which it accepts) but when I do a scrape, it returns no channels. Something obvious I have missed no doubt, but appreciate any suggestions :slight_smile:

not sure either - i just tested on mine and it worked fine. can you send me the logs when u scrape to see if anything looks off?

i just looked at my test box-- cleared creds and tried myself and went right through. the site the script signs into is `https://watch.spectrum.net/guide

does that work for you in Chrome manually?

Same thing happened to me, lost all gracenote channels after the update. I'll remember about reapplying the community grace note option if it happens again.

i still cant replicate the issue (but to be fair my test/dev box always updated live as I'm dev)... so I very well may have introduced a bug when I entered that new GN exclusion list for upgrading users. Sorry guys - glad theres an easy fix

just to confirm - when you say LOST them, were they just renumbered in CDVR? I did a small fix that moved the default feed TVCHANNUM from 100,000 to 10,000. I'm wondering if when I did that, it re-numbered all your channels. and thus, CDVR needed a DB wipe/refresh.

The channels were still there, but were all dumped into the non-gracenote m3u with my previously assigned channel numbers, everything that wasn't gracenote before was just fine. I don't think changing the default feed TVCHANNUM down to 10,000 did anything as I'm not using the default feed for anything. I have a feed that I use that was set for 10,000, but that was fine. I probably could of been a little clearer, was running on no sleep.

I'm not sure this matters, but I just remembered that I had already manually changed the TVCHANNUM for the default feed by adding a zero on the end to make sure it was numbered out past anything I was going to use for my other feeds. I imagine that would of overridden the change to 10,000 in the new image. I guess it's time for some sleep :wink:

hmmm.. only other thing I can imagine is if the Gracenote channels you had setup were all under the new exclusion list. any chance u could DM me your gracenote M3u?

i'll keep digging

That's exactly what happened to me also, see my post above. They all moved to the NON Gracenote feed, but didn't have matching guide date at all. Scraped OR Gracenote.

Once I applied the community fix, they all went back to the Gracenote m3u and reacquired proper guide data

It actually wasn't for me:

I had to completely stop and start the container to get it to show up. Not sure why it wasn't visible. Did get it to come back, but I appear to be locked out:

I'll try again in a couple of days. I'm trying to disable everything around here that might be auto-logging into Spectrum in case it is causing issues, although plenty of other things are working fine. Spectrum is a huge PITA, it appears!

You likely already did this, but did you check under the FastChannels Channel menu to see if the Tubi channels weren't added to the feed because they need review? By default it won't add the channels to the feed until they are reviewed and accepted.

I haven't updated from v5.2.2 yet.
Is this the exclusion list? https://github.com/kineticman/FastChannels/blob/development/app/data/gracenote_exclusions.csv

I can download my Default Standard and Gracenote m3u playlists, update and download them again to compare before and after update.

yeah checked that, there are no channels returning

Ahhh the logs! Never looked there (silly of me..)

OK it is confirming that it found zero channels there, seems to suggest that my login details think it is anonymous for some reason?

I gotta ask- are you 100% sure your creds are right?
