Fubo TV project

So did you end up dumping Xfinity and your HDHR Prime (if I remember correctly)? Are you using Fubo as your main TV service now?

I'm shopping around for a TV streaming service to replace my DirecTV satellite provider.
DirecTV has been working pretty well with TVE in Channels but the number of TVE channels is starting to go down. It's hard to justify paying $267.19 a month for TV now and get less and less channels.

It seems that this Fubo project combined with TVE is probably the best option.

Just wondering if you made the switch and are happy with it.

Fubo is great, but I'm only sticking with it another month. With all the issues of TVE channels going away and the unknown part of using this docker container (how long will it last), I decided to stick w/Xfinity and my free cable cards for my HDHR Prime. If I gave up the cable cards, I probably couldn't get them back.

To me it's more hassle and not much savings cutting the cord.

Yeah I am testing FuboTV just to see how it works . ... but I also have 2 Primes and there is no way I am giving them up..... My primes along with adbtuner (XFINITY Stream) give me all I need. I will Cancel FuboTV before the trail ends.

I also removed TVE today from my sources. Too much maintenance.

does anybody have the eastcoast stuff?

What eastcoast stuff?

if you have a valid fubo account, you can configure your account to reflect the correct zipcode and you wil receive those east coast channels.

where would I do that though?

RSNs are determined by your zip code on your fubo account.

Locals, East / West feed are determined via your location, which is the IP address of the container

I am on the east coast and use fubo docker.

I am currently testing Fubo Docker on a NAS DS923+, and the HD channels work fine no sticking channels, but the 4K channels, like NBC sports 4k, the channel sticks, I know I have enough bandwidth, but is it the NAS Box itself not support for 4K Content?

Not sure what sticking channels means, did you check the requirements for 4K?

sticking means, it freezes a second, it works fine on the fubo app, just seems to have issues with the docker version with 4K channels only, the Regular channels are however fine with the docker, and since they do not have much 4K online, I can not test again until the next time they have something on in 4K

Make sure your internet is fast enough and the device is powerful enough to play the streams. I know that Fire Stick 4K works well with those 4k feeds. Alternatively, you could try hardwiring everything too...

In my experience only the NBC Sports feeds appear to have stuttering issues.
Have not found a solid solution for their particular 4K stream as of yet (and honestly hasn't been a priority of mine)

I have not had issues with FOX/FS 4K streams (using AppleTV as client)

They are supposed to offer a 4K stream of the super bowl but have yet to see how CBS provides their 4K feed

Yea i noticed that as well, I hope that they add the CBS Feed for 4K Superbowl, or they turn the Local CBS into 4K, as that is what I kinda read on the Fubo site. will have to wait and see.Other than that the Fubo Docker works fine.

It looks like your vlc-bridge-fubo docker image is no longer public, but I do see a similarly-named one from m0ngr31. Do you know anything about that?

It is the same one just older I believe.

I think this is an effort to make it easier for users.
I'm pretty sure it is intentional.

The container image is still public. Not sure where you are looking

This was an effort to do some collaboration to improve the code. I did pull the source code down as I was doing some major rework of the code. It was not put back up as of yet
