Fox Weather

Since it is web based any chance of getting Fox Weather added as a TVE channel?

Can you share the URL to the web page where it is streamed?

I was wondering the same, can this channel be added to the lineup?

Add me to the list. Would love to have this free channel added to Channels dvr

Here is my crude attempt. It works but someone else would need to chime in on how to load logos, guide data, ect.
Settings>add source>custom channel. Under source change to text (from url) paste the following in the box. Change channel number(15010) to whatever unused channel you would like.
IMPORTANT if you copy and paste, add an “h” in front of the tts://247wlive………. So that it is https://247….. it is throwing a link if I put http in the post

This forum provides formatting for code if you put 4 spaces in front of the lines or use the code format button from the format bar. For example:

#EXTINF:-1 channel-id="Fox Weather" channel-number="15010" tvg-logo="https://forums.tvnewstalk.net/uploads/monthly_2021_06/FOX_Weather_LOGO_12000x12000.jpg.66117584e46dd34997b5052a78dcbd6a.jpg" tvg-name="FW" tvc-guide-title="Live weather" tvc-guide-description="Watch weather live.",FOX WEATHER

Hope that makes your life easier in the future.

Try this for station-id
tvc-guide-stationid="121307"
and this for the channel logo
tvg-logo="https://tmsimg.fancybits.co/assets/s121307_ll_h15_aa.png?w=360\u0026h=270"

I don’t know how to add station I’d to the text file. I basically used the panda channel for reference. When I said crude I really meant it. I figured some one smarter than me would chime in with a correct and complete m3u text.

 I really don’t know what I’m doing with m3u channel setups lol

Try this, I have guide info as well, thanks @chDVRuser :

Looks like it is only 720p30fps so quality is kind of meh...

Good work @slampman and @chDVRuser now have guide data. It put it as channel 9000 but that’s fine.

If you provide tvc-guide-stationid there is no need to provide a logo, name, or anything else.

Or simply map it with the gracenote data in the gui that’s already included

This seems to work pretty good as long as the guide data is actually what is on. Time will tell

I'm going to delete refs to station id 93141 as it's no good.

I gave this a try and it works well from the Web UI. But, I cannot get the channel to show up, in the guide, of any of my IOS/TVOS Clients.

Any ideas?

Are you using custom collections at all? Does the channel show up in the settings area of the app within the source?
