Oh wow that’s my provider! Thanks!
With the latest DVR pre-release, the TVE feature is now supported on the NVidia SHIELD.

Hey guys! I am just curious if there is any other user on here that use Spectrum TV Choice (or maybe even Spectrum regular cable) that are having issues today with the TVE Apps.
I went to watch something via Channels and kept getting "Tuner Not Responding" errors and "unauthorized", etc. I thought maybe it was just via Channels but trying to log into the Apps individually is giving me the same issues and saying I am not Authorized with my provider. I signed out and back in to see if that would help but it didn't.
It seems like a Spectrum issue and not a Channels issue but I was just wondering if anyone else was seeing anything similar.
I am going to call tech support in a little while but they are usually useless. The Spectrum App itself is working fine, just not the TVE Apps.
If this remains an issue I will probably cancel with Spectrum and switch over to PSVue as they are the only other OTT service that has all the channels I am looking for.
Yes, seeing the same issues this morning. Pretty much everything is showing "authz retries failed" or "notAuthorized: A network error occured when communicating with the provider's authorization service". Just started this morning, up until then everything was working great.
I was able to log into a couple of the websites directly just fine with my Spectrum credentials.
I assume it is just a Spectrum thing as well, otherwise this thread would be full of others with similar issues. Hope it can be repaired. I otherwise really like the SSO feature with Spectrum on the ATV, but it could be causing some of these issues.
Same here with Spectrum. Spectrum app on Android works fine.

Unfortunately Spectrum's support for TVE seems to be the most flaky out of all the providers we support. Their servers get easily overloaded and stop authorizing new sessions. If you can't login to a site like https://www.tbs.com/watchtbs or https://www.fxnetworks.com/live-tv/fx/pacific, then there's no hope of it working on Channels.
Which sites did you try that worked?
I just gave PSvue a shot, but for some reason I can't access the local affiliate channels or any of the most important sports channels via Channels DVR. These are all shown as available on the $60 subscription that I purchased, and I can watch them on the PS website.
Channels TVE does not support any local affiliate channels that I know of. I have Hulu, DTVN and PS VUE and none of them support them. Not sure about sports channels.
NatGeo and ESPN worked. Just tried TNT and it returns an error with the providers authorization service. Same with Food Network. Now ESPN is not working either. The error is not descriptive, just says "something didn't work quite right". I suppose their auth service is messed up. Perhaps it will come back... or not.
Crap. That's what I was afraid of. Useless for me without the sports.
Curious. Do you mean the Sports Add On Package? I know they do not support premium packages like HBO because of the extra DRM.
No, I didn't get the sports add-on package. I got the $60 elite package. I hate this situation where we can't watch our local sports remotely. I thought maybe Channels DVR would solve that, but guess not. Every time I re-add the tuner, it finds a different quantity of available channels.
Now I can't even login and re-add the PSVue access.
If you keep removing and readding your account you will start to hit rate limits. You should use the pencil icon and edit button to re-scan specific channels. You can also see the full list of supported channels under the edit menu.
If there are specific channels that are missing we may be able to add them if you follow the guidelines in the TVE FAQ:
"login and re-add". This is the very reason I ask for a RESCAN "ALL" instead of the per channel. I finally decided to go about deleting the TVE Source and re-adding but it is scary that it may not get re-added.

Apparently I'm done for the day. No more logins.
It finally got logged in again apparently and scanned channels. Unfortunately TVE is just missing the channels that I was hoping to get. Not your fault tmm.
Back to my cable subscription and SageTV I guess.
As I mentioned, we can add missing channels if they have a website with a stream that allows cable logins. Several sports channels have been added in the past week. Without a list of what's missing we cannot help.
Can you be less cryptic? Just do what is suggested, specify what channels you are looking for so you can get an answer.
