But this is getting off-track for this Topic.
Tried that but I agree that we're off topic. I won't address it any more in this thread.
I think Roku just went all DRM- investigating. Anyone else having issues there?
Edit- false alarm but exposed a bug. Getting update out today hopefully. Roku may be unavailable until update fyi.

i'm still seeing the this old house roku channel and its streaming - so at least something hasn't gone drm
Seeing some channels are DRM and some are not. All BBC Channels and Cinevault are DRM, America's Funniest Videos, Brit box are not. Will keep checking.
Ran an audit, looks like almost half are DRM:

Every time I attempt to run an audit on the Roku Channels, it crashes out after 20 consecutive errors.

● v2.1.0
Gracenote improvements
- Cross-source name matching — any channel whose name matches a known Gracenote channel is automatically routed to the Gracenote M3U, works across all installs without manual config
- Added 150 Roku + 29 Plex Gracenote ID mappings via CSV lookup
- Samsung, Xumo, LG Channels, LocalNow now get Gracenote coverage via name matching (were 0% before)
Roku
- Persist OSM session token to DB so stream resolves don't hit the playback API on every audit/play request
- Fixed dead channel handling and over-triggering fallback API calls
Reliability
- Dedicated fast queue for latency-sensitive jobs (XML/M3U refresh) — reduces 504s under load
- Fixed startup DB lock race between worker and gunicorn
- Fixed M3U 503 gap during refresh (atomic swap, keeps old file until new one is ready)
- Fixed background manifest check thread losing Flask app context
Logo cache
- Switched from TTL-based to URL-change expiry — logos no longer re-fetched on a timer, only when the source URL changes
Worker
- Fixed signal handler crash in fast worker thread (SIGALRM not allowed in non-main threads)
- SSL handshake failures now correctly marked as dead streams rather than transient errors

Notice on feeds, a Overlap warning. What is this checking for?
As my feed it warns on does not overlap.
Only 3 channels starting at 1600, so 1600 - 1602.
The other feeds are starting at 2000, and 4000.
Note. All channels in each source are disabled save for the ones i am including in each feed.
So, i assume i can safely ignore this warning?

I should probably check into that. It won’t hurt anything as Channels won’t allow duplicates.
Edit on version 2.1.2 Roku should work now

I just started to play with this today. Looks fantastic. 
How do you know when the Stream Audit completes?
@KineticMan
I am attempting to run 2 instances of this on docker (in my test setup first).
(I want to have one instance per CDVR server, and i have 2)
I changed the two port number in the compose for the 2nd instance and the name
services:
fastchannels:
image: ghcr.io/kineticman/fastchannels:latest
container_name: fastchannels2
restart: unless-stopped
ports:
- "5524:5524"
volumes:
- db_data:/data
volumes:
db_data:
But, i notice that the port number change is not honored when the container boots up.
Gunicorn also is always on port 5523
I ran a stream audit using 2.1.0. It was the first time it has made it completely through all 794 channels. 356 remain after weeding out the DRM and dead feeds.
I'll run through them again now that I have updated to 2.1.2.
UPDATE: After a second stream audit, the final count of channels from the Roku source stands at 356.
This is not how it's done. Left of the colon is the host port, to the right is the container port. Should be:
ports:
- 5524:5523
Note the quotes are not needed -- not sure why people use them...

haha you can force overlaps on channels with forcing virtual channels to a number that already exists
It uh creates interesting problems
I have also taken your advice - pared down the list of channels - split the list between 2 m3u's by provider and only using slm for other stuff
Much better
You also need to change the volume name for your second one.
Try this
volumes:
- db_data2:/data
volumes:
db_data2:
And you should also change the service name
Don't both need to be changed? You can't have 2 of the same thing running on the same ports right?
You can have multiple containers using the same port (inside the containers) with bridge networking.
You must map the container port (to the right of the :) to your host OS port (to the left of the :)
Your host OS can only have one container mapped to a specific port.
Thanks yall. Those changes seems to have done it.
Now i know.
A few nitpicky things left...but will save for a bit later...
EDIT: Ok, just one nitpick...
Could you add a option to show/hide disabled Sources on the Sources Page?
Really would like to see a cleaned up page and not have to scroll so much.
Most importantly though, really could use a Backup/Restore function, or some sort Export/Inport user settings.
So that, if something happens, i can just Inport all my enabled/disabled channels and feeds and settings etc. Atm, i am not even sure how to go about backing up changes. Aside from the OS built in system image abilty.
Additionally, for my mothers DVR, she has over 100+ FAST channels enabled/set to FAV.
I have a simple .txt doc of the names of each channel...would be cool is i could just dump the list into FAST and it enable just those channels, or at least, show them in search so that i can enable them. Or read it in as a .csv...
Vs, having to type each one, or enable just those, or add to a feed etc.
Long winded way of me saying....wish there was a way of searching for, or enabling channels in bulk.
Just trying to find a better way to do this that is not so tedious.
