TVE Scans ch. 5985 successfully but plays HDHR 7.1?

Hulu 5985 ABC shows a successful scan but when I go to play it, it tunes my HDHR 7.1 abc every time. Any idea why 5985 TVE doesn't play? 5986 and 6001 work without issue. Thanks

In the logs....

It's failing to stream KHGI from your Hulu TVE source.

The log makes sense if you were trying to play from a client, or record from the DVR server.
It fails over to another available source channel for the ABC network. And which one depends on your settings for source priority, channel favorites and how the channels are stacked.

If you play that channel from the DVR web UI guide, you should see the same error message, but it will not fail over to another channel or source. This will allow you to troubleshoot that Hulu TVE channel.

How come it scans successfully when I manually scan the channel? Do I need to remove it, meaning it's never going to work?

Scanning does an auth with the network.
It can auth the channel, but fail when trying to stream (for other reasons).
That's what happens with my local Fox TVE channel that auths but fails to stream.

Try playing it in the Channels DVR web UI player.
Could be a temporary issue if your other Hulu TVE channels are working.

Also, the way to rescan TVE locals is by toggling the Experimental setting.

I toggled the experimental setting and behavior is the same. Tried playing in the browser and doesn't work there either. I'll mess with it on and off for a week. If it doesn't work will just remove it. Thanks
