I tried this and it errors out. Do you need credentials?
Yes and they confirm geolocation by IP address to ensure you’re in their service area, too.
how do I change the port 7777 because all of the vlc bridge are on same port and it won't let me run a second docker.
Just map it to a seperate port. I use 7777 and 7778 no problem.

how do you do that? I changed the 7777:7777 and changed it to 7778:7778 and it didn't work.
You can't change the listener, only the port that you are mapping to the listener.

Google is your friend.
I haven’t looked at LocalBTV in a longtime. Are people still able to use an m3u file for that?
I don't think so. I rarely use it, but you can record out of area LocalBTV programs and watch them. The only limitation is live TV. If the picture was higher quality, I would maybe use it more often.
How do you record out of area
Channels? I would like to get phoenix aztv channel 7
The original m3u no longer works, you must use the VLC Bridge Docker above. The VLC Bridge only works within your geofenced IP address area and if you have a subscription to LocalBTV.
The docker is pretty good just be advised that it ay crash occasionally.
If you stop and restart it it will play.
I think it observes the time out that folks on Localbtv have to deal with.
When it disconnects, simply press play.
LocalbTV does seem to workwell.
I have the settings in place.
