How would one use just the web interface not the docker version
.
Quick steps add source with own login info? If possible
Please
I'm not sure what your question is. The only non docker option is the last one which is a Windows portable exe file you can download and run. I provided instructions in the readme on GitHub. That is a very new thing I started working on for about a week and it is probably going to have a few bugs I will need to address in the coming days.

You would have to ask the maintainer of whatever project you are using.

Looks like the Windows.exe solution only supports one device/one stream at a time.
I get Connection to tuner lost if it try to tune another channel or use it on another server.
Can't record one channel/watch another etc.
EDIT. Same issue with the Maddox docker. One stream only.

Not sure what thread is to be the main one for this new Pluto TV integration...so, sorry for cross posting.
Nooo! I hope we find a fix for this!
I'm still unable to get Pluto working again. I deleted the old pluto-for-channels in docker and ran the commands at the bottom. I tried with and without the apostrophes around username and password and double checked my credentials are correct. What obvious thing am I overlooking?
docker run -d --restart unless-stopped --name pluto-for-channels -p 8080:80 \
-e PLUTO_USERNAME='[email protected]' \
-e PLUTO_PASSWORD='yourpassword' \
-e START=10000 \

Are you trying to run it in a Windows terminal?
2018 Mac mini, intel processor running iOS 15.7.4. Docker version 4.55.0.
I don't use Mac too often and not sure of the requirements, but you could try a one line command and see if that works.
docker run -d --restart unless-stopped --name pluto-for-channels -p 8080:80 -e PLUTO_USERNAME="[email protected]" -e PLUTO_PASSWORD="yourpassword" jonmaddox/pluto-for-channels
As a quick test, I logged in to Pluto TV on my phone as well as on my Windows PC (on the same LAN) and I was able to watch two different streams at the same time.
So it doesn't seem that there is a limitation on the account itself.
I have tried that, multiple times. The original stream disconnects after about 10 to 20 secs.
Same thing when my mother, when she was watching Pluto from her server, tied to the same Pluto source as my server, it would drop connection soon as I tuned a Pluto channel. She would retune, mine drops.
If I opened multiple browser tabs and stream a Pluto channel from same server, same, first stream will drop once a new one is started.
Though, not sure wha you mean by "logged into Pluto tv..." do you mean the Pluto TV app and not Channels?
If so, that may be Device ID thing. Pluto seeing different device.
Using any of the current 3 Channels integration solutions, each one connects as a its own single device, so, one stream only it seems.

Interesting. I'm wondering what causes it for you because I've been watching two streams on my account for several minutes now. I'm not doing it in Channels. Using the Android app on my phone, and a browser connection on my Windows PC. Both logged in and working fine.
This is just to confirm that it's not a limitation on the user account itself.

Again, the Pluto App has nothing to do with how it works with Channels.
And you are using 2 separate devices.....not playing multiple channels on one single device, which is what seems this issue is related to.
EDIT: Seems I can, with the Pluto TV website, with the same Pluto account, open 2 browser windows and stream different Pluto channels at the same time.
But, I think the Website works different than the way Channels aces Pluto (via API?)

Understood. Thank you for the clarification.
Appreciate the help, but it didn't like the one line at all. I tried changing my password to one that doesn't have any special characters but that didn't do anything either. I've deleted the container and the configuration I had in Channels and will try again. Is this working for others?

Try changing the double quotes to single quotes? I think it's double quotes on Windows, single quotes on everything else.
Got further with the single quote marks, but I'm still getting the NLA on this device message.
