Good point. I wonder if Spectrum will have caps on the Ultra, 450/20, Plan I have when they join in this data cap nonsense? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have free cable TV right now, but if I move, this could be an option. Is there a guide on how to set that up, somewhere? It's pretty simple. On the setup page you can add new tuners/providers. Two show up in beta: Locast & TV Everywhere. So you can use them both for all local OTA channels as well as the national channels from TV Everywhere. You'll likely end up with 175 to 225 channels depending on area without using an antenna or actual tuner device. I've actually been building a "mobile" server on my notebook that uses all Internet based services for movies, TV shows, IPTV streams and the Locast & TV Everywhere TV stuff fits right in with this project. You won't have any trouble figuring out the setup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carlo 4328 Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 I wonder where Channels DVR gets this from? They must be using some central site for all providers. We can already get Locast in Emby without needing Channels DVR which covers the local TV in many markets. Would be nice to be able to pull in TVE channels as well without the $8/monthly from Channels DRV for the "National" channels. Anyone know of another way to get TVE into a M3U files?

We can do Locast without needing Channels DVR so I'd like to find a solution to do the same for TVE channels if possible. On 9/13/2020 at 1:53 PM, Sammy said: How?

I moved the channels.m3u from the downloads folder to another location and it quit working from many channels but if I point Emby at the download folder it seems to work well. Either that or the channels.m3u needs to be downloaded on a regular basis. IDK.. testing. What does adding the codec=copy do and I figure you mean in the m3u channel list in the channels.m3u file itself.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Found it as a suggestion on the channels forum to remedy a problem similar to yours. Worked for that person. You could also try using mpg streams - Replace "hls/master.m3u8?codec=copy" with "stream.mpg" in the M3U file. I have been doing a lot of testing. Seems like using the ANY device M3U (so all channels TVE&HDHR) would solve the issue of getting the HDHR channels into Emby and eliminate the duplication of channels which it does. BUT - using the HLS streams doesn't really work beyond 2 or 3 channels. Seems like it tries to record (3rd,4th,5th channel) but it does not. If I switch to the stream.mpg format it does work, I did up to 7 channels being recorded but FFMPEG cpu usage was rising with every channel not a huge amount I think recording 7 channels put it around 15%. Way more info than you asked about.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sammy 735 Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 (edited) Mine looks like this straight out of the box: #EXTINF:-1 tvg-logo="https://tmsimg.fancybits.co/assets/s62420_ll_h3_ab.png" tvg-name="CCP" group-title="HD",CCP http://localhost:8089/devices/TVE-Spectrum/channels/6011/hls/master.m3u8? So I need to add in the channel number and then change the extension? Any way to batch edit this? I think I'll try with notepad ++ on a copy of the original..
