YTTV TVE sign in notifications

I've just recently started getting alerts sporadically from the google account tied to YTTV with this alert:

We noticed a new sign-in to your Google Account on a Mac device. If this was you, you don’t need to do anything. If not, we’ll help you secure your account.

I don't have any Mac devices and the google account I use for YTTV is not my primary.
My server is running on Synology.

Anyone else? Thanks in advance!

The DVR identifies itself as a Mac on NAS because it won't let a NAS login.

I was wondering why it always thought it was a mac. Now I know you programmed it to be one haha.

Thanks! It was odd because it has happened a few times lately but I've been using YTTV TVE since that fix came out so the behavior was different.

That may be a solution to getting a successful login but what about the annoying emails. I get this on my Mac mini as well.

The annoying E-mail has to do with Youtube. I wasn't getting them until they were about to activate 2fa.

This morning I received a different message on the account I use for YTTV. Did you change this from Mac recently? Is this from my DVR I run on Linux?

A new sign-in on Linux.

Yes it's from the dvr

When I received notifications from Google about logins, I was glad to get them.
