MLB Network

Hi all, has anyone else lost MLB Network from their channel guide recently? I really miss it.

It's ok on mine. Check to make sure its ticked as a favorite and not hidden.

Yep mine broke a while back. YTTV is my provider. This is the error I get:

2020/02/11 21:42:00 [ERR] Could not start stream for TVE-YouTubeTV ch6193 MLBTV: TVE: get http://mlblive-akc.mlb.com/ls01/mlbam/mlb_network/NETWORK_LINEAR_1/master_wired.m3u8: 503 Service Unavailable

Tried rescanning the channel, it acted like it was successful, but still does not work.

I've found when I rescan it seems to pause on the MLB Network for a few seconds each time I run the scan but then I can never get access to it on the channels tv guide?

Hmm it’s working for me. If you haven’t already tried I’d make sure on the latest version of the DVR (just a few days old), and delete and re-add the entire TVE source. That has fixed things for me in the past.

I’m trying to find the m3u that MLB uses if you watch MLB Network in a web browser.

( https://www.mlb.com/network/live )

The link let’s me watch MLB Network after I’ve logged in with my MLB account and then authenticate with my DirectTV login. I’ve only been asked to link my DirecTV credentials the one time. I’m hoping I can just create a custom m3u channel for it? Who knows?
Does anyone have any idea how I can find the m3u?
Thanks!

Is it not working thorough Channels directly? Even if you can extract the M3u from the page it’s likely to change regularly.

revisiting this...any chance we can get MLB network back for TVE? it still works on the web if you authenticate, at least via directv stream it does.
