I have MLB_SHOW_RADIO_FEEDS=true in my docker-compose.yml, and see two channels per team (on TV, one with radio) however on the radio channels, it still plays the TV broadcast audio. Any tips on how to troubleshoot this? In the MLBtv app, I am able to select radio for the game in question and it plays the radio broadcast synced up with the TV.
Thanks
Matt
Unfortunately that has never worked. There are some technical limitations i believe. I feel you though. I wish i could get them too, i cant stand my teams announcers and end up watching the away feeds lol
Ah ok, thanks.
channels has no way to patch in the radio audio feed. if you open the feeds in a different viewer it should work.
Part of the issue may be how it's coming through...
The video stream isn't stream 0...
There's duplicative "English" audio feeds and unsure what Channels makes of that or if it even munges description/comment metadata on a live stream.
Not sure what the id3v2 tag is on the radio/Spanish audio feeds.
Pretty sure with a little ffmpeg-ness, it could be optimized for consumption outside of VLC.

if you look back a bit, the devs confirmed there's no way for channels to pick secondary audio. there's no way for me to programatically change the default audio stream, i have to just add it as a secondary stream and then you pick it from your player...which channels can't do.
if you view the streams in VLC, kodi, tivimate, or any other player that can pick secondary audio, the radio feeds should work.
anyone having issues today? my browser works fine with MLB.TV direct.
but no games are loading within Channels on browser or Chromcast. (except for Big Inning)
restarting had no effect.
chromecast error shows 'm3u not found'.
I'm also having issues today. Seeing a lot of these errors in the logs:
request exception getting stream url, message: {"errors":["media.not-playable"]}
can you tell me where the logs are located? this is my first time running into issues. thanks!
I have both mlb options through @crackers8199 and @m0ngr31 via EPlus. @crackers8199 version seems to get m3u: stream not available. @m0ngr31 version with ESPN+ is working for me right now?
Weird thing is that I am not seeing the failures in the logs:

wish i could be of more help. recently started using the tony wagner mlb server and scripted m3u / xmltv creation.
I had this working well for a couple of years, however I had to reinstall it today. I used all the same settings and now it's not working.
I'm getting this error from the log files

ok, so maybe it's not my fault, it was a coincidence that I happen to have to reinstall it today.
Not working here either. I’m guessing mlb changed something
What team is failing for you? My crackers version seems to be working fine
All of them
MLB.tv for channels is working for me. Are you all on a new server pre release? My server is on Version 2024.05.16.2241
I'm on 2024.05.07.1442. Haven't updated anything today. Was working yesterday.
CURRENT VERSION: 2022.7.1
but that is so strange because I had to reinstall everything today from scratch.
