How to add docker container as a source on Channels DVR

Playground Custom Channels
#1

Hi. I'm new to docker, but I read up on it for hours and I've managed to figure out how to create docker containers. I am trying to get plex for channels running and I can create the plex for channels container. I have also tried the one-click olivetin method to create the plex for channels stack but I keep getting error messages (I am trying to get that figured out in another thread about olivetin usage). My question is - once i have the plex for channels container running, how do I link it up with channels dvr? Do i go to add source and create a custom channel and if so, what do I put it in the boxes - where do i get that information? Thanks.

Yes

Depends on the source you're adding
Look at the topic for your source here

Thanks, but I seem to be missing something. The source I want to add is the plex for channels container that I created. The container says it is running, but how do i link it up to channels dvr?

If you used the compose here it tells you where the instructions are

version: '3.9'
services:
  # GitHub home for this project with setup instructions: https://github.com/jgomez177/plex-for-channels
  # Docker container home for this project: https://ghcr.io/jgomez177/plex-for-channels

That developer uses this Forum Topic to discuss his container

Hope that helps.
