This is just for info, on Sinology, 4k isn't working with the following error. Non 4k works. This doesn't impact me. But it may impact others.

Sorry no easy fix for 4K feed on Linux DVRs

1 Like

I remotely updated the server on Windows and it seems to be working with the 4k box checked! Not sure how to test to see if it is recording in 4k from my tablet away from home. Great to see that it is actually recording regardless.
Edit.
I was able to get the first 90 minutes of the game recorded in 720p. It looks like it is working in 4k from the two minute warning onwards.

Great Job Developers working great on my Windows Server.

I would have loved to try it too but I lost my Fox channel after one of the updates earlier today. It is no longer in my DirecTV lineup. Once my DVR is idle, I will upgrade to the latest and then try to get it back by unchecking the local channels option and enable it again.

Anyway, it seems that you got Fox TVE 4K working in Channels. Fantastic! :clap:

Depends on the source too. A football game vs a concert vs a movie ect. Upmixing two channel for crowd noise isn't that much of a trade off. I would choose the HDR for football for sure.

I take it that this "hack" for the Super Bowl, won't carry over to any other Fox "4K" production? It will take the Docker EPlusTV method moving forward? Is that due to the Super Bowl being open to everyone with no need for credentials?

Free access vs 4K feeds are separate concerns. Work to integrate 4K support is ongoing.

Does this address the Linux issue for the future or was that not an fmp4 problem?
