Kayo for Channels

On the contrary we should be preparing for Widevine

matthuisman · August 17, 2022, 12:25am

fixed then?

matgeee · August 17, 2022, 4:27am

yep! was an issue with server IP

Kayo container has stopped working for me. Conatiner runs, but playlist only loads 2 channels and nothing will play.

Temporary issue i hope?

kor · September 28, 2022, 8:51am

Working normal for me on Mac

Elliot · September 28, 2022, 8:54am

I tried it on a windows machine and it worked. I went back to my NAS and removed the container and image and set it up from scratch and it worked.

No idea what happened, but bloody glad its not gone

matgeee · September 28, 2022, 11:44pm

ha! I live in constant fear that this integration will stop working one day and I will be forced to use their app again.

matthuisman · September 28, 2022, 11:56pm

as long as they dont switch the streams to Widevine - i should be able to keep it going

kor · September 29, 2022, 12:43am

Forced to use Foxtel
lol biggest Aussie fear

I've just discovered this wonderful setup! I got it running last night and at first it worked fine. But about 1 hour later it started failing. I thought it was an issue with my DNS server, so I rebooted it, and it started working again.

However this morning it is failing again, I've confirmed that DNS is working correctly. I assume the container uses the same DNS settings as my windows host? My password does have an "!" in it, so I've added the escape character (although it worked without it as well).

Any help would be appreciated!

EDIT: I've done a bit more digging, and as the errors below seem to suggest, the connection is timing out. I've run a network capture and I can see that it is going to the correct IP address, but it is having connection issues, the 3-way tcp handshake completes but then I'm seeing retransmits and Dup Acks - I'm not sure why it's being so flaky.

matthuisman · October 5, 2022, 12:19am

ive just pushed a new container that removes the usage of requests.session()
i have sometimes seen these cause issues with long running code due to socket caching I suspect or something like that.

Give the latest container a try and fingers crossed it helps

Damon_Coursey · October 5, 2022, 1:04am

Thanks very much Matt, sadly it doesn't seem to have made any difference.

Damon_Coursey · October 5, 2022, 1:20am

I wondered if it's a docker issue, I tried to restart docker, and it failed to start back up. So I rebooted the host, after a reboot it's working fine, fingers crossed it was just docker doing something odd. I have a total of 6 containers running and plenty of free RAM, so I don't think I'm hitting any kind of limit. I'll continue to monitor, thanks for your help.

kor · November 27, 2022, 4:21am

Hey Matt, I occasionally run into an issue where the stream displays an internal error or that the link is not resolvable.

When I check the docker logs, it usually asks me to check the location. I run a smartdns on the machine but have ensured that kayo is not effected in the regional settings for the kayo service. I am not sure if this is as reliable as we would like.

Can I set a dns specific for the kayo container so that it doesnt inherit the machines dns using something like this Container networking | Docker Documentation

Want to ensure that it's not going break anything. Thanks

matthuisman · November 29, 2022, 1:07am

give it a go you can always revert.
Think --dns to the container should be fine

kor · December 7, 2022, 1:16am

Is the end near ?
Saw this pop up in the channel scan today: DRM FSA505

matthuisman · December 7, 2022, 4:38am

hmm, i cant see anywhere where I check for DRM in the code... so not sure where that message coming from.

UPDATE:
Oh I see - it's a new channel named that and yes - thats drm protected. So they are testing.

UPDATE 2:
Latest github code and docker container updated to skip any drm channels

antkappa · December 10, 2022, 1:46am

Guide data seems to be missing as of last few days?

Or is it just me?

Damon_Coursey · January 27, 2023, 3:09am

@matthuisman - just wondering if anyone else is having issues with kayo for channels lately? It has been failing for me for the last couple of weeks.

The guide loads ok, it just fails when I try to play something. It seems that the .m3u8 that gets downloaded might have some funky stuff in it?

EDIT: I can watch Kayo fine through the official app - so everything else is fine. And I can see in the docker logs that it's getting a token without issue.

Looks like this for one of my channels:

Awesome work Matt. Can't believe I hadn't seen this before after using many of your other add-ons for years. This setup works nicely in Emby too, so a very happy camper.
