How are you getting frndly tv into Channels DVR without TVE?
I got TVE through YTTV to work first try. Will it fail at some point?
Mine hasn't.
I use Windows and have never used docker.
There is a way to do it without Docker, if you don't mind installing Python.
Look for "No Docker" on this page:
I have Python. Haven't used it in a while.. I'll take a gander at your links. Thanks!
Unfortunately the only fix i know if is to create a gmail account specifically for channels and don't enable 2fa.
I found using one of the other options including ADBTuner to be the best option.
For some users it works, for others it doesn't.
Some users are able to make it work running in a docker container, but for other users that doesn't work.
I believe Aman's statement here
Also, see Eric's post
If/When they figure it out, it will be posted
I finally got YouTube TV to work with Channels on my Synology NAS (1513+).
SOLUTION: I used Synology Quick Connect to access the NAS, added a new Gmail account with just the username and password for security, and added YouTube TV to Channels. I have received most of the YouTube channels, except for a few, like CMT.
NEW ISSUE: I wanted to watch the local news on the West Coast, so I gave it a West Coast zip code when I set up the account on YouTube TV. When I watch the YouTube TV app on Apple TV, with the Express VPN set to Seattle, WA, I can watch the local news on the West Coast without issues. But watching the West Coast news with Channels gives me my Texas local news.
NOTE: Express VPN (Seattle, WA) was installed on the Synology NAS when I added YouTube TV to the Channels.
Any thoughts?
CMT (and other channels from the Paramount group) is not available with TV Everywhere anymore.
Were you still on your network when you accessed it? How does accessing it different change the result? Are you using channels in docker?
What is an ABD Tuner?
I just signed up for a YOUTUBETV trial and had no Problem setting up TVE of course I use windows ... I gave up on docker and UBUNTU because of problems with XFINITY TVE.
All I got was a Prompt on my phone "was it me signing in" and I answered YES.
congratulations
You know what is really weird is on the Account I used I have 2fa enabled ... it prompted me once was that me trying to login ... I responded Yes and it scanned all channels without asking again.
Yes, I was still on my home network, Watching Channels and YouTubeTV on an Apple TV. The Channels Server is running on my Synology NAS. While watching the Channels app on the Apple TV, with a VPN set for the West Coast, the Channels App shows the Dallas local station, while the YouTube TV stations show the West Coast local stations. It is like Channels is ignoring the VPN on the Apple TV.
