FruitDeepLinks — Universal Sports Aggregator for Channels DVR

Yeah I'm seeing a lot of stuff missing, like the Clemson vs. LSU and UCLA vs. Cal games tonight. Basically nothing is in my FDL lanes after the 3:30 games.

Same for NASCAR, the CW sports are in the ESPN app but I don't see practice/qual or the race tonight in the guide. I have Motorsports selected in filters but I don't see CW listed as a supported network.

LSU is on ABC - National Broadcast tonight

But you’re correct in nothing after about 4:00 pm

The ABC games are always in the ESPN app, Baylor vs. Auburn is in FDL lane today for example.

UPDATE: just did a full refresh, still no games tonight. I think a lot of ESPN+ CFB games are missing.

Just pushed v2.3.1 as an emergency fix for the missing evening games.

Found the problem: Apple returns related games 20 at a time, and our scraper wasn’t following the additional pages. On a packed sports day, that meant it could miss later games even though Apple had them listed.

The fix follows those pages. Our normal refresh now picks up Lamar–Louisiana, Clemson–LSU, and UCLA–Cal, and it found additional events across other sports too. This should substantially improve coverage on busy days.

Pull the latest image/recreate your container, then run a full refresh. Your existing filters still apply—no settings changes needed. Thanks for flagging the missing games!

So compared the ESPN app and the last game scrapped was the Drake vs Montana.

There are probably 30+ other games that don’t show after the above game. I expect it’s an issue with the source.

see new version - it was simply a packed sports day and scraper didn't see everything. it's still a remote poissibilty we'll miss events time to time, but i think this is a big help

Great Job!! Seeing my game in the inspector and still got 30 minutes to spare before I head to Tiger Stadium!!!

Got all the football back, thanks! Any chance of getting the CW Sports events added? These are CFB and NASCAR, mainly, and are in the ESPN app now.

The main scraper is Apple which gets most ESPN events. Surprised those don’t get found. I’ll look into it but it’s only as good as its source.

Does this pull the "4k" events? ESPN and ESPN2 have highee bandwidth streams at 1080p, not sure if they upscale to 4K but most games are now 4k on Apple tv 4k gen 1 and 2. Has anyone compared the quality on linkpi versus the appletv

Abc seems to look better on ESPN on Apple TV versus the YouTube tv

I tried searching this thread but didn't find anything definitive for the following questions. I apologize if they are there and I missed them.

It doesn't appear that NFL Sunday Ticket is supported. Is that correct, especially using ADBTuner? Is Thursday Night Football supported using ADBTuner? Finally, will the Dallas Stars games on Prime Video be supported using ADBTuner?

You don't really need FDL for NFL Sunday Ticket. The Youtube TV channels for Sunday Ticket have gracenote ids. Good info in this thread for setting up with ADBTuner... NFL Sunday Ticket with ADBTuner / HDMI Channels

I don't have YTTV. While I'm sure Sunday Ticket is integrated for YTTV users, I expected I'd have to use the normal YT app. Is that not the case?

Ah, gotcha. I forgot that they also sell Sunday Ticket through standard YouTube. I think you're probably correct that you'll need to use the normal YouTube app.

Another option is to use EPlusTV to bring NFL Sunday Ticket. PQ is sub 720p but if you are running MultiView like I do, then it's a great option. If PQ is the top priority, then agree ADBTuner is the best path.

Has anyone tested this on linkpi 4k through ESPN app and appletv 4k ver 1 or 2
