Has anyone had experience using Spectrum TV Stream with Channels DVR?
I've been using Spectrum TV Choice for the last year and have had no problems, but that's because I thought it was the only way to get TCM. Turns out that's not the case. So I could definitely save money if Spectrum TV Stream fills the bill.
Thanks!
I am having an issue setting up tv everywhere with spectrum. I use my id and pw - which I can log into spectrum online to watch tv but when I put it in channels - it errors out. Same thing happens if I try Philo, but philo has a weird log in so I can work on that later but would love to get Spectrum step up
Is Spectrum TVE working for everyone? I’m getting a lot of inconsistencies. Most channels work on their TVE website such as C Span but I get an error under Channels. https://sp.auth.adobe.com/adobe-services/session: 401 Unauthorized: "Data not found”
CNN consistently goes out on both Channels and their TVE website.
Any thoughts?
It’s not working for me either. Channels is able to get the stream but it never gets past the default ‘commercial’. For instance, ESPN shows the ESPN logo that it does when there isn’t a streaming commercial. Other channels give a stream is currently experiencing an issue screen.
I thought I had figured it out when I launched Chrome and tried TVE directly in the browser. I got a message that indicated Chrome was out of date. I updated Chrome. Restarted my Mac and no luck.
I’ve tried updating Channels to the latest pre-release. Updating my Spectrum credentials. Rescanning. Removing and re-adding the Spectrum TVE source.
Nothing works. Channels seems to think it’s tuned the channel, but it isn’t quite tuning it.
It’s not a spectrum issue.
Same issue here. ABC is just a logo for my local ABC station. Spectrum is my provider.
Having same isssues just started yesterday for me
I tried deleting the Spectrum source and re-adding it. I get the following error: authn: POST: https://sp.auth.adobe.com/adobe-services/session: 401 Unauthorized: "Data not found” and I can’t add any channels.
What type of issue is it… I’ve tried every way to fix the problem but I think it was Disney cause I’ve noticed it’s there channels that are on permanent commercial lockdown but could be wrong.
Disney basically disabled their TVE feeds (including the entire ESPN complex) last week. Nice of them, eh?
Channels 6984 - 6991 which are all of the ABC national feeds have stopped working for me. I don't know when this started, but I have used them in past. I tried rescanning the Spectrum TVE source, but they still show up as valid. They all get a 404 error in the log when I try to watch one:

They don’t work for anyone. Disney DRM’d them. Update to prerelease and all the drm channels will be removed so you can’t try to authenticate the drm channels . This is not a Spectrum issue, it’s a Disney issue and has been beaten like a dead horse all over the forums. ABC, Disney,ESPN, and all the rest of the Disney owned channels don’t work in channels dvr via TVE anymore.
Are Weathernation and Aljazeera down too? I never watch them but was just trying all stations to see what still worked and found these two as non-working.
I've tried several times across different weeks to get Spectrum configured and get the same "no login form" error each time. The error includes an apparent screenshot of the Spectrum login waiting for me to hit "Continue" confirming it's me. There's no obvious setting in the Spectrum account for MFA or any other thing that might be blocking login.
Using Synology NAS, both beta and stable release. Trying to add in Spectrum TVE, when adding source I get a Spectrum error message "blocked by bot detection". Any fix? Thanks

Same but for uverse . Will have to manually grab
I have been having this same problem for a few weeks now. Spectrum as a TV Everywhere source is completely disabled for me. I have tried to use other browsers, connecting to the Channels DVR Server, same result. I was using TV Everywhere as a source in Channels for years, always worked great. Recently, I started losing access to certain channels such as IFC, TNT, and others. So I tried removing the source and re-adding it. Now I can't get anything to work with the TV Everywhere source.
