Pluto TV On Screen Message "Pluto TV is longer available on this device"

@speedingcheetah I did some work on the docker image. If you feel froggy and want to give it a spin, here is the link to it: Docker Test Version It still needs testing, but seems to do the trick.

I am not sure what I am doing wrong, I not use Docker compose much, but the first version worked fine.
I deleted it, and am trying to add the new one, but I get this error in Portainer.

Do you have another image named pluto-for-docker? Honestly, I just load the yaml in a folder and run the docker compose up -d in terminal.

I did, but deleted it. and I changed the name in the compose to be different, that's what I did before. container_name: pluto-for-channelstest

@Bobby_Vaughn Your Docker Compose example on GitHub is missing services: at the top.

I updated the readme. Thanks.

Thank you. Typos will be the death of me.

@speedingcheetah needs to update his compose accordingly...

THANK YOU @Bobby_Vaughn for this quick solution!! You rock! I can still watch/record PlutoTV in Channels DVR today. :grinning:

I added it to Channels, but then the server crashed when I clicked the save button

restarted server...seems fine...still working on it.

Did you get anything the the docker logs?

doesn't look like it. looks normal there

Channels server log has something. funlock error

@Bobby_Vaughn Its working, but I am seeing in the logs, it is starting with Account 2 as it thinks Account 1 is in use?
I am only streaming one channel when I see this.

I close the stream and open a new channel, and the logs say using account 3

Thanks, those bolt errors are Channels DVR trying to open and lock its database file to read or write data.

It should still rotate through them. I will look into why it didn't start with the first username. Thanks.

I have to step away for a while. I will be back later on. Thanks.

I close the stream and open a new channel, and the logs say using account 3
close, Start new channel Account 4.
Close, open new channel Account 1.

Is this how it is supposed to work?

Each request is going to be the next user

One thing I noticed that's a little weird about the guide data. I basically just want it for BBC News and all the programs have a January 1, 1970 date. The season and episode numbers are also messed up and there's no New tags.

I don't think this was the case for the old way, just curious as to why this is. The passes I have are set to record everything so it's not a big deal.

It's just a bug. I rushed through this to get it out. I will address bugs and have fixes as they appear. I have been working on it for a few weeks on and off, but did not have time to put the polish on it. I never expected Pluto to do this without warning.
