Not sure about the bouquet, I think I started with it by manually mapped others. Mine looks like this:

Is this because I seem to have multiple services for one BBC One?

EDIT: added screenshot

#266

I also have multiple services per channel. Seems to me you are missing this in your channel:

#267

Yes, I know, as per my OP, how do I get this to pass through to the playlist?

#268

I did not do anything special, its possible a bug in tvh - which version are you on? I'm on

HTS Tvheadend 4.3-2025~gfbc94aee8

#269

Hmm... 4.2.8 - I was lazy and used snapd to install, that maybe why it's slightly older.

#270

I was lazier - its all on Unraid :slight_smile:

#271

I don't see anything higher than 4.2.8 on their GitHub. Anyway, still none the wiser.

#272

TVH very rarely push out official new builds - 4.3 has been in development for years IIRC

If you have docker I use: Docker Hub

#273

What version of TVH are you running?

I built the GitHub repo, as I wanted to strip somethings out. Although that was sometime ago now.

… I think it needed to be one of the later releases (I seem to recall a bug, but can’t find it now) on their site.

#274

Ah. Just read the above. Missed it :slight_smile:
Try 4.3

I'm just building a version now, I found your post on that, very helpful thank you. Will report back when I've installed and tested

#276

Looks like there is a PPA for Ubuntu, not sure what you’re running.

#277

I built a version from GitHub, all working nicely - thank you.

Last issue is Channels thinks every channel is HD (yes I know about collections, I'm referring to the channel details on the quick guide). Any solutions to that?

#278

Personally, it doesn’t bother me/I don’t use those groups.

Looks like there is support, providing the groups are correct on TVH I guess:

#279

TVHeadend doesn’t put groups into the m3u unfortunately, I remember searching and seeing one of the devs saying it’s not something they are going to support. I just manually added the SD group to all of the channels and then used the “Source” > “Text” feature in Channels. I use just UK Freeview and nothing has changed in over a year that’s required me to get a new m3u from TVHeadend.

Good tips thanks all.

Frustrating I’m getting a number of dropped frames although nothing to do with tvheadend as it’s started before I implemented that.

Hi

Has anyone manged to get the M3U file from a GSS.Box DSI400 or Digitbit R1 to work with Channels?
The M3U from my GSS.Box plays fine in vlc but not in Channels.

A sample of the M3U is below

Yes, but only via tvheadend

#283

Have you tried the Facebook group? I think there was a mention of an m3u Channels DVR SAT>IP FTA channel Lists | Facebook

#284

I had time so had a play with this, it works fine using an m3u pointed directly at the ip of the digibit. Can't find an up to date UK m3u though and really CBA to make one.
