Awesome. Thank you, I'll need with it. Is that the file you have us put the ip address in?
no, that's the .env file for laravel. the docker-compose file is the one that defines the entire stack (frontend/backend/mapper)...

OK. Cool. Thank you sir.

Update: it completely worked. I now have a non-docker front end that points to the backend docker channel remapping program! Thanks for the tips. Hopefullythe hardwarettranscoding will work better than software was when they were both insidethe containers.

Hopping on here to ask another question.
I had to do a fresh install of my DVR PC due to some tinkering gone wrong. In resetting everything up, I've run into an error in regards to the PHP application. It's not running at all, just stuck in a restarting phase.
I pulled up the docker-compose logs, and this is what they said.

As mentioned prior, I'm not super familiar with Docker containers. Does the PHP version rely on the parent system's version control? How would I go about fixing this?
Any tips are much appreciated! Thanks!!!
i think the problem here is that the latest version of the apache-buster php image is using php 8.1, and phpspec/prophecy doesn't have an 8.1 release yet. we should be able to resolve this by telling it to use php 8.0.x instead.
try this: in the code mapper Dockerfile, change the top line from this...
FROM php:apache-buster
to this:
FROM php:8.0.16-apache-buster
and then rebuild everything.
8.0.16 is the latest 8.0.x version i could find a php apache-buster docker image for. i think this will work, let me know if you have any issues.

I could use a bit of help getting this up and running on Windows 10. I put this aside a while ago because it was beyond me. Since then I have gained a bit more confidence with docker. I am having an issue and was wondering if anyone that has it up and running on Windows or @crackers8199 can point me in the right direction.
I have some success but then I see this:

Keep getting these type of errors - Any help will be appreciated Thanks!
shouldn't be an issue, it just sits inbetween them and re-maps the channel numbers for you. you'd just need to modify the backend env var to fit your scenario.

Hi @crackers8199 would you mind trying to help me out with the ports? I went through the install instructions and made it all the way up to the end of the docker-compose step, but it failed due to address already in use.
I assume this is because I already have an instance of Channels running on port 8089 and/or there is a conflict with one of my other Docker containers. I was able to get both channels-frontend and channels-backend running by changing the ports, but I don't think I did it right. Can you walk me through it and how the ports need to relate between the different containers.
Here is what I have running currently:
Channels: Existing instance on port 8089
channels-baseball: Local Port 8080, Container Port 8080
pluto-for-channels: Local Port 8081, Container Port 80
channels-frontend: Local Port 8088, Container Port 80
channels-backend: Local Port 8090, Container Port 8089
channels-mapper-db (No port settings)
What do I need to change here to get everything working together as intended?
Thanks!
i was looking for a easy way to change the logos in the guide. ive been trying to read threw all the comments, so i apologize if i missed something.
i ve been using zaptoxml and steve to make custom m3u lists and custom xml guide and custom logos. channels dvr does a great job with mapping xml guide, although they lack in the other 2 topics.so i still need zaptoxml and xteve. i seen this article but it seems a bit involved to just update the logos. it seems i need dockers setup and php . which are 2 topics i dont feel comfortable with.

I'm another Channels newbie taking the plunge with this remapping channels solution. I have the backend setup and added my service Hulu Live and want to go in and do the remapping. Now when I type in the URL for the backend Channels: http://192.168.x.xx:8090 it just takes me to the admin/settings page and I don't know how to get back to the channel mapper view to start mapping channels. Any suggestions?
