@matthuisman: That's cool, I can see all 20 Frndly TV channels in the guide now. 
However, I can't seem to find an EPG for it? Did I miss it?
I was waiting for that answer before I trialed it.
Nothing in the setup instructions about assigning an EPG source.

I think you need quotes around your PASSWORD=xxx, so -e "PASSWORD=xxx"

The epg should come in automatically if you leave the xmltv area blank. It uses station ids in the m3u to map the guide data.

Yes, it seems to be working now! 
And now The Weather Channel is back in Channels DVR. Plus the Game Show network! Life is beautiful. 
@matthuisman: your PayPal balance is about to increase slightly.

How to set geo location for Local Now. I'm in Birmingham but getting Manhattan Weather.
oh right. I set an x-forward header to a USA ip address so the streams work everywhere.
I'll do an update soon to instead use your own IP address, but allow setting an IP via environment variable if users want a different location
UPDATE:
Done.
If you pull latest image - should now work using your real location
Default now is to use your own IP address.
If you want a different location or in a non supported region, you can set an IP environment variable for the IP you want it to use for your location

I tried that but it didn't work either

Hm, try with single quotes maybe?
Or you'd need to pick a new password without a ! in it

I reset the password without any chars just letters and numbers and used the example from the last github post it looks like it tries to run but at the terminal prompt I see "dquote> " for some reason.
That means you started a " but didn't finish it.

It added the channels to the guide but when i try to play any of them it keeps saying "reconnecting". the error log says this:

I’m guessing maybe the 127.0.0.1 loop back address you’re using might be biting you. Might try it with the actual IP address of the server instead to see if it works.

Matt, your work is awesome. I'm so happy you're in the CDVR community now. If you could create something like this for Stremium channels to get them into Channels DVR you'd be the best!

Thank you Matt. I updated and added the IP as you directed and works flawlessly. Thank you. This Local Now is better than the OTA channels I can recieve locally. The return of The Weather channel also is worth the subscrtiption. You rock.

I updated to the IP of the server but it's showing this error now when i click on the channel to play it from the web guide:
" Failed to start stream for ch9329: M3U: Could not fetch playlist: http://192.168.4.50:8183/play/10: Get "http://192.168.4.50:8183/play/10": EOF"
This is also the error that shows on the docker log:
