At least 1 channel has stopped working

[RevWayne 8]

My  Emby Server on MacOS is up to data and has been working well. But for the last 2 weeks, I have tried to record American Idol (channel 32.1 OTA) and it pixelates very badly. Prior to this, this was one of my stronger OTA channels. Today I tried to access that channel live (not record) and I got a message "No compatible streams are currently available. Please try again later or contact your system administrator for details." after the screen had flashed a couple of times. Other channels appear to be working correctly, at least the ones I use most often. I have no idea what this means or how to fix it. My wife is going crazy missing her favorite program. Any assistance you can give will be greatly appreciated.

Hi @RevWayneare you still having an issue with this?

I have been out of the country for the last two weeks, so I don’t yet know how it’s doing now. I’ll check and post here one way or another. Thanks for checking on this issue.

Luke, I am back in the good ole USA and I have had a chance to check out my system. It was acting a bit squirrelly, but I kept trying different channels and finally everything was working. Several times a good solid channel would play for a few seconds and then quit. Then other times a good solid channel would try to start and then say no compatible streams found. I kept trying different channels, and finally everything was working. I haven't a clue what happened. I suspect I may have something set up wrong but I don't know what it could be. My Mac Mini M4 server should be plenty strong enough, and the 4 TB drive I  am using for file storage is less than 1/4 full, so there should be plenty of room for working files, caches, etc. As I said, I don't think it's an Emby problem, I think it is more of a setup problem that I don't know how to fix.

Hi there, please attach the Emby server log from when the problem occurred:

Thanks!

Pixelation on a single OTA channel while others work could point to a signal, tuner, or channel-specific issue. I’d check the signal quality and review the Emby logs first. For general streaming options
