Only one community user reports it's still working
And not sure how he runs root DNS servers locally
NBC has been long dead (removed because of DRM)
I that like a VPN or something completely different?

ChannelsDVR uses TVE which is different than the Fox One app. Nothing has changed on the TVE front sadly.
I'm not talking about an app. I'm talking about the FOX website streaming live.

I'm still having issues with Fox Local KTVU. I've ensured that location can be seen for foxsports.com and fox.com domains; I've ticked on and off TVE in Advanced. Console log shows: 2025/09/01 22:45:24.615759 [TVE] action=fox_station err=not available
Not derailing: One caveat: I also fixed Chrome Capture to stream NBC by downgrading to Chrome 138.
Could Chrome Capture be used to fix the FOX streaming issues like folks have done with NBC? @babsonnexus' learnings are here: Chrome Capture for Channels - #89 by babsonnexus
I don't think FOX TVE 6002 is working for anyone.
I'm sure there are workarounds using other projects.
I can work around it using my HDHR Prime tuner and Channels DVR until I kill my Xfinity cable sub.
But, this topic is about Channels DVR Fox TVE channel 6002.
There are other topics discussing the other projects, where they should be discussed instead of derailing this one.
So far, it appears the Channels devs can't or don't want to resurrect Channels DVR Fox TVE channel 6002, based on no replies on the subject. This has been the slowest dying local TVE channel (hasn't been killed yet, like NBC and PBS).

Appreciate that. Not trying to derail as I’d love to see progress with TVE. Not sure why it doesn’t even show up in the GUI to rescan. It sucks that console shows Fox as not available when FS1 loads in the tuner.

You have to toggle the Experimental setting to rescan the TVE locals
FS1 and FS2 come from foxsports.com, not fox.com
fox.com has redesigned their website (since launching Fox One) and now allows you to stream your local station there when you select your provider. That has been broken in Channels for awhile.
The Channels developers have not updated Channels DVR to use that yet.
I’ve done the uncheck and check, but I recall that I used to be able to see that certain channels would be faded if they were unavailable. Perhaps my memory is failing me, but it’s disappointing that FOX local is still broken.
I’d love to hear any positive progress from the team if they’re willing to share.
Football season is here, and FOX is a key station many folks need.
Yes, they appear in the Rescan menu with an error message. But not the locals. If any locals fail to scan, they don't even appear there. Note mine is missing 6002.
The only indication I see is from the DVR log after I toggle the Experimental setting to scan locals.
2025/09/03 18:38:13.689306 [TVE] action=fox_station err=not availableI get that with both Xfinity and YTTV as providers in Channels DVR, although both providers work to stream my local Fox station on the new
fox.com website
I'm sure lots of users would.
So far, the developers have been silent about the subject (unless it was in a Topic I don't read).

Fox TVE 6002 is back with the latest pre-release, but it doesn't play for me.
I can watch my local Fox station at FOX One using both Xfinity and YTTV providers.
It will work if you set up a separate source for it following the post that I referenced here:
Obviously not TVE, but it does work to stream your local channel. And of course it will crap out from time to time I imagine so I setup a test recording of my local news every morning to make sure it's still working. If it doesn't I'll log back in with my provider and grab the latest link. Hopefully it'll continue to work.
You're talking about grabbing an m3u8 link for a custom m3u channel and I'm talking about Channels DVR TVE Fox channel 6002. Definitely different things.
Of course, like I said. This is just a workaround for anyone looking at the multiple Fox gone threads.
I guess if yours in WNYW, it's back to working like it used to. Fox disappeared from Channel List - #43 by GenericChannelsUser
For me (not WNYW), it's back to NOT working like it used to. Just different error now.
Hey look at that Fox wnyw is back via TVE of course my recently installed antenna and HD Homerun has been working nicely gets me NBC FOX MyNine WPIX etc
Updated to 2025.09.26.0118. Now I have WTIC on 6002 but it doesn't work:
In case the developers would want to look at this issue again:
