no luck.. brand new plug in install.. Copy Database..

YTTV will not work,Pluto does

Browser still shows it is corrupt and needs to be reinstalled

Don't think I've ever seen one of the developers explain how Channels DVR determines your Chrome install is corrupt. Would be nice to know if it's a Chrome command line option or what is used to make that determination.


Here is the message it shows

Yes I wish there was more info on how to fix it

here is the server info

What command did you use to setup the jail?

I used the plugin:

If there is a better way I am all for trying it

Okay I am trying to test it and having issues.

my main TrueNAS is 13.0-U4

Okay I have TrueNAS-13.0-U6.1

I will take a look

Chrome errors are shown in the log. Once an error is logged, the troubleshooting page will show corruption flag.

The error in this case is not that useful:

OK, I forgot about the logs:

Hopefully the above will help

I guess your error is different. Mine runs but crashes instantly, which is apparently also a known issue.

It seems maybe freebsd is not a good choice of platform if you want to use TVE.

Similar issue discussed recently: Chrome dbus issue with Chromium 119 on TrueNAS Core (FreeBSD)

worked fine on TrueNAS Core up until I started seeing channel issues a few weeks back..

This is not going to be possible for us to fix. FreeBSD doesn't have a working chrome in 13.2, and TrueNAS Core is still using 13.1 which is no longer available.

See others having similar issues:

Thanks. So it looks like At some point I need to decide if changing server OS is a smart choice. But right now what I have works

We will see if Google fixes Chrome to work with BSD 13.2 before TrueNAS Core upgrades. I think this is a few months out. There is always TrueNAS Scale and then run Channels DVR in a VM or container.

Yeah I considered the scale update. Right now I have a Ubuntu VM on Core. Need to finalize a couple things then I will make the switch to it

I used to run Channels on a Windows VM under core and it worked well. Commercial detection took about 3 times as long. That was the only noticeable difference. Using a Ubuntu VM on Core is a step toward Scale. I'm curious how fast commercial detection will be.

Any Idea of how I can run the plugin installer int he TureNAS Core in a 12.4 Jail?

Seems like I am having issues with Channels running on My Mac Book Pro.. recording interruptions (TVE and OTA)

Watch a Plex install video for TrueNAS Core. They have a similar setup.
