I didn't see that on my guide. Is it all channels or select ones? The ones I looked at were correct. Also, which region was it in, I use US East and didn't notice it.
Thank you,
Your app as it is could be launched from Task Scheduler with just a few clicks. All that's needed is the ability to set the configuration and having it stick. I think you have most of that setup already from what I'm reading. I'll need to do some testing so see where it's at.
I started on the Powershell scripts to automate the process. Having the playlist on the IP:port should eliminate the need for most dashboard visits. As soon as I test the PS files, I'll put them on GitHub. Thanks for the suggestion. It "should" work fine as a service as is, but there are always little issues that are hard to envision without actually doing it.
Take a look at BBC News and Sky News channels, the show dates are all 12/31/69. Don't think this happened with the old Pluto feed. Also there are no New tags etc. Yes this is US East.
Ok. I'll look into the issue. Thanks.
Well, I'm lost. I just installed 1.0.9, but all I get when I try to watch a Pluto channel, is the "reconnect" error, and then it gives up. First time this has happened on the new version installs.
I think Channels is still looking for the server on Port 7777, and the new instance switched to 7781. I don't know how to get it back to 7777, OR get Channels to see it on 7781.
P.S. Duh, my brain must not be working this morning. All I had to do was change my Channels SOURCE URL to reflect the new port of 7781. SORRY!
I'm all set, and I'm leaving this post for others future reference, even if it makes me look a little dumb, lol.
Hopefully, this is just a issue with his docker solution....but, if not, could mean that DRM may be enabled on all Pluto channels at some point.
OK, I got it sorted. The issue was present in the original Docker version too. Pluto does not return a valid original air date for 24/7 live channels or non-episode content. It sends the Unix Epoch 0 timestamp 1970-01-01T00:00:00.000Z for those programs. I have a work around where when we see the 1970 placeholder, it now drops it and gives a clean display on the guide. I also improved the live content tag detection. I'll have the update built in a little while. It will be v1.1.0 and hopefully finished up. Thanks.
Thanks! You've been awesome with the quick hits on this.
I hope not. If so, we will just pivot to a different FAST provider. I feel like if they were going to go DRM, they wouldn't have been worried about adding limits to it, but who knows.
Pluto offers the most. Plex would be the next best. Samsung, not much. I donāt know about LG and I think there are a few others.
Some channels are offered the same on all of them at least in name but some air different programming or different episodes.
Thanks for all the great updates!
