Plex Cannot Tune If Using XMLTV
Strange one...I've noticed that tvhProxy works near perfectly if using Plex's postcode based EPG configuration, however, if I switch to XMLTV within Plex it fails to tune any channels. "Playback Error: Unable to tune channel". Any ideas?
This has been fixed in Tvheadend 4.2.3-112 or later
Use http://admin:admin@localhost:9981/xmltv/channels to map the EPG.
Hi, I'm not sure you have understood my issue. I am ok to point plex to the tvheadend xml but if I use it I cannot stream. "Unable to tune channel"
Which version of Tvheadend? There was an issue with their XML which was fixed recently.
Make sure all the channels are numbered.
I understand the issue, I had the same.
Hi, I'm running Tvheadend 4.2.3-113~ g5ba82587a ~zesty and all of my channels are numbered.
And shows from EPG on Plex display as for example: 41ccba1b4ff72d4318596d170fb4ef0c [followed by your channel name as on TVheadend]?
I have this same issue, but instead of pointing to the tvheadend xmltv, I am pointing to the xml source file which I am using to populate tvheadend.
I am running 4.3-632~gebe99da
edit: I just tried pointing to the tvheadend xmltv, and yes I have those UUID numbers in front of the channel names. I am going ahead with the import to see what happens. edit2: it's because those UUID are in the channel ID in the tvheadend XMLTV. and yes my channels are number edit3: all loaded and I can tune, just the UUIDs make it difficult to see the name of the channel. will try with the xmltv file direct again
@raptor75 The Tvheadend XMLTV will give the links to the channels within TVHeadend, that long string of characters like 41ccba1b4ff72d4318596d170fb4ef0c [followed by your channel name as on TVheadend]. Without that Plex won't know which channel your EPG is referring to.
Understood. However ideally it should take the display name to use as the name of the channel in plex, rather than the full channel ID
So now instead of using the xmltv link form tvheadend, I loaded the xml guide file which I use to load into Tvheadend, and I have the issue "Unable to tune channel"
