Missing menu bar icon

Hi - the Channels DVR icon is missing from my menu bar. :frowning: Think it disappeared a couple of days ago. The service is running, I can see it in the process list, I can access the web console, and it’s working from from Apple TVs etc.

I’ve rebooted a couple of times, and the service starts fine, but no menu bar icon!

Any ideas?

Thanks!

What version of macOS?

10.13.6.

Around the time macOS 13 (Ventura) was available, I noticed my Channel DVR icon disappear from the menu bar. I have no idea how to get this back. Everything else is working fine. I can get to my DVR from localhost:8089.

I've looked all around to see if there is some new checkbox to display/hide this icon, but I can't find it anywhere.

I've rolled back to a non-Beta version of Channels DVR, but no luck. I'm currently running the most recent Channels DVR beta, but still no luck. This has been going on for a couple months. I was hoping the icon would re-appear again on some update, but it has not.

Is there any script that can toggle this menu bar item on/off? Am I missing an easy switch?
