Samsung TV Plus for Channels [retired]

Answered your question over here so we don't take this topic too far off-track.

I don't see how to update as off track... but, anyways, as i posted via edit of my post, the simple way of just Stopping container, and Re-create and re-pull feature, results in updated container.
(also, i didn't realize that other thread was titled for Synology, I not using that, but assume the process using Protainer is the same. )

now that the playlists are gone and the container has become the "only way" and actually required now, I'll do a proper blog post with instructions a proper release thread here on channels and get it pinned :slight_smile:

That's a docker container thing. Not a Samsung TV Plus thing.
Most users (including me) don't want to wade thru a 1,000+ post thread that gets off-topic.
In fact, most users just come asking for a quick answer because they don't want to read the topic posts.

But, it is needed knowledge to get Samsung TV Plus to work in channels now... and to update it when changes are made. Thus, it is very relevant to this thread, as many do not know how to use Docker or are just leaning. And it helps very much to have the info all in one place.

Yea... a new thread for Samsung TV Plus for Channels may be good idea;. As this one, not really valid anymore since it all chat on the urls and things now gone.

Once you get a new thread made for the docker way to do this, then maybe best to have this one locked.

If it were my Topic I started, I would keep all the updated info in the first post.
And either lock it, so only I could update it, or just let it be a conversation about the topic.
But the topic isn't about what is docker or how to update a docker image.
Example: What is a docker container

I have a question regarding the Samsung Plus TV docker. I saw that there is a REGION variable. I also saw that there is an "all" region. However, if I wanted to only select certain regions, can I put multiple regions for the REGION variable (only the regions I am interested in), for example separated by a comma?

Also is there a list somewhere of all of the available regions?

I was looking at this yesterday. Regions are at, ca, ch, de, es, fr, gb, in, it, kr, us.

You cant currently specify multiple regions. It's either all or one of the above.

The Python script can be altered. I may have a crack at it this weekend unless @matthuisman already has plans for it?

Oh yup, pretty easy. Just take in comma separated list and then use the all epg. I'll see if I can get something out tonight :slight_smile:

Nice! Thank you.

@matthuisman Just wondering if "No log line matching the ' ' filter" . In the docker log means anything?
Or is that normal for Portainer to show in the log section, if there is no log content?

It is the only thing listed in the log for your container.

Everything working fine, far as i can tell...

thats just portainer Im pretty sure :slight_smile:

new container just pushed

environment variable REGIONS can now be a comma separated list of regions
You can also use /playlist.m3u8?regions=us,ca on the playlist url itself which will overwrite the env variable.

And the status page now lists available regions

Notice:
I have renamed the env variable to REGIONS (old is REGION)
Also, the playlist url is now playlist.m3u8 (old was playlist.m3u)

have now created a proper release thread:

That was quick! I'll not be able to test until tomorrow, but thanks again.

Thanks so much and such a quick turnaround!

Now that there's a new release, I'm going to close this thread and point everyone to that one.

Please continue conversation about this under the new project:
