Fire TV setup - "DVR server could not be discovered"

Hi there - I’m a long time user of Channels DVR on my Apple TV and love it. I’m playing around with a Fire TV on a different TV, and when I download the app and launch Channels DVR, I’m greeted with “Your Channels DVR server could not be discovered.”

My DVR server is running just fine… and when I use my Apple TV on the same TV, it works just fine as well. Why can’t the Fire TV detect the DVR server? Thoughts on what I can do to troubleshoot/fix?

NM… must have been a network glitch. I unchecked/checked the Bonjour discovery box on the DVR settings page and it works fine now. Nice work btw on the Fire TV version!
