LiveTV InternalServerError

[AaronClarke 3]

Hello, 

I have been using Emby for a number of years now and have had very issues in that time. 

We use Emby as our main source for Terrestrial TV. My aerial is connected to a tuner which Emby then connects to via m3u8. This has worked flawlessly for years, up until when my wife noticed on Saturday morning (28th Match 2026) that channels would not play.

I have confirmed that the tuner is working an I can play streams when connecting direct outside of emby. I have restarted everything also which has not helped. I have also noticed that the scheduled task for refreshing internet channels appears to be getting stuck at 75%, not sure if this is related or not?

Below are the only errors I can see in the logs.... I have also attached my log.
