Provider - Xfinity

Not asking me for texted code.

Yes xfinity is not working. Yes we are looking into it. No we don't know why this is happening or if/when it can be fixed.

No code needed here either. I've also moved on to just using each channel provider's app within tvOS, rather than streaming from my desktop computer; less hacky.

Ok I turned off 2FA .. thanks for the tip

For what is is worth, I use xfinity and have no issues at all. But xfinity is my least used source so maybe I don't have enough activity to trigger their algorithm. Who knows? But it isn't completely broken.

You are just lucky like me ...

Looking good. And Scan was fast.

So far so good. Authenticated and scanned channels in about 10 minutes. Didn't lose my favorites, which was great!

Nice job!

Well done!

Got all but 3 channels back, I verified 2 of the 3 channels through their online interface, plus I do know I had access prior.

Food Network: 403 Forbidden: Access to the requested resource path has been forbidden: [Authorized Networks: None] [Authorized Products: None].

TLC: 403 Forbidden: Access to the requested resource path has been forbidden: [Authorized Networks: None] [Authorized Products: None].

NBCSN : unavailable in current location (Couldn't figure out where the live online stream one with this was was actually.)

I did a rescan of every channel manually and submitted a diagnostic log.

Had to reset my password after the first scan. It's all good now, got my 165 TVE channels back.

dumb question but I got an xfinity email to reset my password...which I did. i left 2FA turned off but how do i update my password on Channels TVE?

You can remove the source and re-add it or there is a command somewhere posted to do it.

Did you try individually rescanning those first two channels? The third will be fixed in the next prerelease.

Unfortunately didn't work for me.

Updated to 2021.03.22.1958. Restarted docker container. Failed to log in with Xfinity.

I confirmed outside the container that I was able to login normally at xfinity.com and xfinity stream

Yes, I did. Oddly enough, on one server they scanned in just fine, and the other they gave me this error. Plus on a third, I'm getting a Authentication error like previously.

Random thought, is it possible the symbols in my password are messing it up?
