Okay, how about

ter_wget --version
ter_wget -O /tmp/setup.sh https://getchannels.com/dvr/setup.sh

Try this

ter_curl -k -o /etc/init.d/channels-dvr https://channels-dvr.s3.amazonaws.com/terramaster/init​
service channels-dvr start
service channels-dvr status
#31

[root@TNAS ~]# ter_curl -k -o /etc/init.d/channels-dvr https://channels-dvr.s3.amazonaws.com/terramaster/init

I wasn't sure if the above meant it was installed or not but when I tried the start command it came back saying Channels is not installed.

#32

Can you copy paste the exact output of the service commands

#33

Do you mean this?

[root@TNAS ~]# ter_curl -k -o /etc/init.d/channels-dvr https://channels-dvr.s3.amazonaws.com/terramaster/init
% Total % Received % Xferd Average Speed Time Time Time Current

[root@TNAS ~]# service channels-dvr start
channels-dvr not exists
[root@TNAS ~]#

#34

And this one?

#35

[root@TNAS ~]# service channels-dvr status
channels-dvr not exists

#36

Seems like they changed a lot in TOS4.1

Try this:

ter_curl -sk -o /etc.default/init.d/channels-dvr https://channels-dvr.s3.amazonaws.com/terramaster/init

When I run that command nothing happens. I just get the prompt again - no errors thrown up.
Just in case I ran the start command and status command but still same result. Here is the output:

[root@TNAS ~]# ter_curl -sk -o /etc.default/init.d/channels-dvr https://channels-dvr.s3.amazonaws.com/terramaster/init
[root@TNAS ~]# service channels-dvr start
channels-dvr not exists
[root@TNAS ~]# service channels-dvr status
channels-dvr not exists

#38

Is there anything else you would like me to try on this or should I look for another solution? I am trying to think of another device I can use that I own, but I am coming up short. I have a PI3 but not sure it's powerful enough for the commercial cutting?

#39

If you can give me ssh or vpn access to the TNAS I can figure out what changes are required for TOS4.1

Latest install instructions for TOS4+

SSH in as root using your admin password and run the following commands:

ter_curl -k -o /etc/init.d/channels-dvr https://channels-dvr.s3.amazonaws.com/terramaster/init​
chmod +x /etc/init.d/channels-dvr
service channels-dvr start
service channels-dvr status

I am not getting the TVE Channels to work on this setup. I just realized that maybe Chrome isn't installed on this device? How can I check or install it?

#42

how do I uninstall channels from this NAS? I tried the recommended commands for Linux I found in a Google search but they don't seem to work.

Is just uninstalling the folder enough?

#43

I just spent a number of hours trying to get DVR running on current TOS, and there were just too many issues to overcome, primarily no bin/sudo and no package manager. I even tried to to use git to root install a working copy of Chromium but that didn't seem to work either. So I'm going to start over by installing TrueNAS/FreeNAS on the box and do it all the supported way.

But also in the end, it became clear that this Chinese distro is so heavily modified that it shouldn't be trusted to be secure anyway.

Hoping my comments will prevent others from wasting a bunch of time on this pointless effort in the future.

This is an old topic, but with TOS5 and later you can install files manually if you download a X86 .tpk package. Would really love to see this working on my Terramaster :slight_smile:

#45

An old topic indeed but any news about Channels DVR supports Terramaster?

#46

If it's a supported device, it will appear in the NAS list here Channels — Channels DVR Server

Their recommended hardware Channels — Hardware
