I just upgraded and tried with no luck. I tried this on both a windows 10 PC running channels and my iphone. I too can log in to nbc.com and stream fine with YTV but nothing on channels.
Thanks for testing. Please try again with v2021.10.16.1827 once it's available
I still couldn't login with main account.
Here is the Logs if it is helpful.

Tried with my two week old account added to the family plan and still works.
What is the download link to these newer builds you reference? Thanks!
I also noticed that I haven't seen this login page error on the other thread when I was looking. Maybe a clue. It shows a NBC Logo at the top of the screen.
IIRC, NBC is the first channel tried when adding a TVE source.
If you look at the DVR logs, it starts like this
[TVE] action=auth mvpd=Comcast_SSO requestor=nbcentertainment
I was thinking that too. However on my family account that lets me login(meaning adding Youtube to Channels DVR). ABC is first for me.
NBC doesn't seem to work. But I also can't login to my local WREX channel which is NBC. For some reason using Youtube TV and NBC.com website will not let me login to my local channel. All the other channels I can.

It actually starts with this
Not sure what YTTV would show instead of mvpd=Comcast_SSO
You can easily test this by trying to add a new TVE source and picking a provider you don't use.
Use something like test for username and password.
When it fails, look at the DVR log.
[TVE] Auth starting for Dish as test
[TVE] action=auth mvpd=Dish requestor=nbcentertainment
...
[TVE] Auth failed for Dish: Cable provider authentication failed
This fails due to nbc not giving me my local channel. But thats how this looks like for youtube.
But this was on one that workd adding Youtube as a source.

I just tried to add YTTV again as a source with the very latest beta, and I still get this error, unfortunately.
I just tried again myself, using: 2021.10.17.0416 and still cannot authenticate to YTTV using known good Google credentials. What else can I do or try?
In the YTTV Provider topic, some users have said it works running in a docker container.
I just tried this morning using the latest build I could find of Channels and a new Google account. It would not authenticate with that account either, and it definitely does not have 2FA enabled either.
Please try with v2021.10.18.1626

THANKS! With that latest build, it appears to have done the trick! I appreciate such attention to this and resolution so quickly! It was able to scan for the YTTV "Channels" now, and I will test some recordings to make sure it works fully, but it looks promising now.

Yup works for me as well. Still odd why a new account worked when old one wouldn't. I would guess maybe something different between the two but anywho. YAY!!!!!!

Emboldened by recent progress reported here, I removed my YoutubeTV source and attempted to add it back in an attempt to gain NBC Local (WVLA) as TVE channel.
Unfortunately, now I get Auth failure and Context Cancelled error from DVR Settings after attempt to add YTTV as Source.
Same ID had worked for about 5 months since I first set up DVR.
Currently on server 2021.10.19.0058.
Restarting DVR server did not help.
Rebooting Asustor AS5304T NAS (ADM 4.0.0.RMD2) did not help.

After entering your YTTV login, click-and-hold the Sign In button for one second.
Bingo: the hold on the Sign-In button worked for me. Thanks a million!
