Introducing PrismCast: Browser-based Live TV Capture for Channels DVR and Plex

Prismcast/YouTube. Espn channel is not broadcasting live ESPN. any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

Going to have to figure out a way to not use Channel Selector ESPN,

since there are multiple ESPN in the grid guide now.

Good pickup. Ok super smart forum…. Let’s hear suggestions!

Try setting the YTTV channel deeplink instead. This works for me.

Why aren't you using ABC/ESPN portal to watch? I'm on version 1.11 and am able to tune in to the linear channel.

FYI Issue: Image suddenly zoomed in about 2x anchored at top left. I couldn't fix as long as Prismcast was showing channel. I was watching sports so stopped recording in channels and switched to YTTV. Not a big deal.

Similar issue except I'm getting the full screen in Channels, but when I try and check via VNC, I'm seeing the same truncated screen. Not an issue for me now, but if I need to re-authenticate down the road, then it will be a problem. here's a screen shot:

I run my screen at 1080 High with the virtual screen running at 4k resolution (has to be bigger than 1080p to be able to capture a 1080p screen is my understanding).

v1.12.1 has fixed all the screen size issues for me, but now I'm getting a lot of errors almost immediately when trying to tune in to a prismcast channel. I can usually just hit play again and then it connects, but I never saw this problem before this version of prismcast.

The specific error I get says "Connection Lost. Streaming to the tuner failed. Press play to try again. M3U: All Tuners in Use".

I was wondering if there is a timeout setting I can adjust that might resolve the situation, but I'm not sure what each of the settings really does. And also, as I said, it seems this error pops up instantaneously when selecting a channel, so it doesn't really seem like anything has timed out at that point.

You'll need to look at the PrismCast log when that happens to see what it says.

Did you possibly set a stream limit in your Channels DVR Source setup?
