two.dogs 0 Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 I told my technophobic wife that I'd sort out our new Emby installation before removing the old Windows MCE box. I uninstalled 1 of the 3 HdHomeRun tuners thinking that Emby premiun could use it. However no live tv, no guide, nothing. Am I trying something that is not possible? Is there anything that I must do to reinitialize the hdhomerun to prepare it for its new life?

Luke 37113 Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 Hi, where are you not seeing a guide? Did you setup live TV in the emby web app? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
two.dogs 0 Posted December 28, 2018 Author Share Posted December 28, 2018 Yes I followed guide. I selected hdhomerin and saved then entered schedule direct info and saved. The loading bar started but seemed not to finish. Then at the home screen the tv icon was there but not functional Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37113 Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 Do you see the guide in the emby web app? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
two.dogs 0 Posted December 28, 2018 Author Share Posted December 28, 2018 In the web app when I select "live tv" then "guide" I see a time scale across the top with no information below - no rows, no channels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
two.dogs 0 Posted December 28, 2018 Author Share Posted December 28, 2018 (edited) Screenshots. The firmware on HDHomerun is up to date. Edited December 28, 2018 by two.dogs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37113 Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 So that's the guide data. Did you setup a tuner as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
two.dogs 0 Posted December 28, 2018 Author Share Posted December 28, 2018 yes, but there are 3 tuners for the HDHomerun at that address. Two are used by Windows MCE and I freed up one so that I could test new systems. I've tried kodi/mythtv (seemed a painful and finicky lashup) and also plex (tv guide is weird - wife would hate it). So far I think Emby is the front runner. If I can get tv to work and set up a remote control (with flirc) I'll be happy. John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37113 Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 can you show what the main live tv settings page looks like? thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke 37113 Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 Did you configure any parental controls for this emby user, such as blocking unrated content? That could cause channels to not show up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
two.dogs 0 Posted December 28, 2018 Author Share Posted December 28, 2018 no parental control or blocked content Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37113 Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 Try clicking the refresh guide button. If channels are still empty then please attach the emby server log. Also, make sure the HDHR ip address is correct, and that you're running the latest HDHR firmware, and that your channels all show up in the HDHR web admin interface.

two.dogs 0 Posted December 28, 2018 Author Share Posted December 28, 2018 Log.txt when I click the refresh, the progress bar appears then goes away after about 3 seconds. I think it should fill in green from left to right but that doesn't happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37113 Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 Can you put this url into a browser and provide the results: http://192.168.1.6:80/lineup.json Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

two.dogs 0 Posted December 28, 2018 Author Share Posted December 28, 2018 in case this helps here is my SD main screen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37113 Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 Ok so there's your first problem. The HDHR API is returning zero channels. You need to fix this before you even worry about Schedules Direct guide data. So this goes back to what i said earlier: Also, make sure the HDHR ip address is correct, and that you're running the latest HDHR firmware, and that your channels all show up in the HDHR web admin interface.

two.dogs 0 Posted December 28, 2018 Author Share Posted December 28, 2018 looks like we're cooking now. Maybe I missed it, but I didn't realise I had to go into the HDHomerun setup and click "detect channels" before configuring Emby. I re-entered the Schedules Direct info in Emby setup and the progress bar started to fill up. My guide and live tv are functioning. Thanks Luke.
