mbc0 Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 yeah if I have telly setup on it's own (without tvhproxy) it is available and I can edit the channels etc, I am still around 200 channels though so nowhere near the 400 cache problems area! Is there a way I can get those templates/settings you showed on the previous post? Cheers again! Quote Link to comment
mbc0 Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 rebooting plex resolved the names, made them both available, both detected and both working perfectly!! Thank you so much for your help :-) :-) :-) Quote Link to comment

ufo56 Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 How to make it work with tvheadend ? Quote Link to comment
manolodf Posted March 24, 2018 Share Posted March 24, 2018 I think it is more designed to skip tvheadend and plug in your provider's m3u url directly to work in PMS. But if you can export an M3U then that would be the local file it can look at. The ones that are designed for tvheadend are tvhproxy or antenna(s) Quote Link to comment
mbc0 Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 Hi, Out of interest, is there a way of recording IPTV with Telly & Plex? it is hit and miss if there is a stream drop.. is there a way of carrying on recording even if it is a frozen screen for a second or two? Cheers :-) Quote Link to comment
lordbeavis Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 i am getting "Unable to tune channel (Timed out)" when i go to view a channel i am using docker and telly 0.5 i have eternaltv as my provider Quote Link to comment

gideva Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 Hi Guys, using a url with more than 4500 channels I have lots of issues. I tried to slim down with the USEREGEX option but not really working for me. I decided to edit my m3u file and add only 20 channels (to see if it works). I check it and with VLC is working with no issues, so I copied in /mnt/cache/appdata/telly/channel and I started the docker. At this point is not working at all and I am not able to start the docker (is perfectly working if I paste the url even than I have issues with the channels). Any suggestion? Quote Link to comment
tayshun12 Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 (edited) Hey all im having an issue where the docker won't start everytime I click it. it just refreshes the page and is still off... EDIT got it working! Edited May 4, 2018 by tayshun12 Quote Link to comment
elmn8r Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 (edited) I've seen hints that you can run two instances of Telly to provide Plex with two tuners so you can watch one show and record another. I tried setting that up by installing Telly docker twice with different names and setting them to different ports. I wasn't successful in getting that to work. When I look at the response from hitting the Telly URL for each port, I get an identical response so I don't think Plex is seeing them as different sources: 1 0 http://0.0.0.0:6077 urn:schemas-upnp-org:device:MediaServer:1 telly Silicondust HDHR-2US HDHR-2US uuid:12345678 I have one set up as port 6077 and one as 6078. Is is possible to set up two instances of Telly that Plex will see as two different tuners? I don't see anything more in the docker template that would allow me to differentiate the two...

manolodf Posted May 5, 2018 Share Posted May 5, 2018 It is, but you do have to assign them different Device ID, and I even have different name and Device Auth in there. Quote Link to comment
hawihoney Posted May 7, 2018 Share Posted May 7, 2018 Since two days I try to get this docker working. I do receive the same error always: [telly] [info] booting telly v0.5 [telly] [info] Reading m3u file /mnt/user/Daten/Plex/Test.m3u... [telly] [error] unable to read m3u file, error below [telly] [error] m3u files need to have specific formats, see the github page for more information [telly] [error] future versions of telly will attempt to parse this better panic: Unable to open playlist file goroutine 1 [running]: main.main() /go/src/app/main.go:193 +0x1b62 The only thing regarding the m3u file I found on Github is a missing comma after the '-1'. But I do have these commas in there. Looking at the source code (link below) Telly should output more specific outputs. Is it possible that this docker has not been updated? https://github.com/tombowditch/telly-m3u-parser/blob/master/m3u.go What's wrong with my attempts? What's the exact m3u-format this docker needs? Many thanks in advance. #EXTM3U #EXTINF:-1,Das Erste HD http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:xxxx/folder/folder/file.ts #EXTM3U #EXTINF:1,Das Erste HD http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:xxxx/folder/folder/file.ts #EXTM3U #EXTINF:-1,Das Erste HD rtp://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx@:[email protected]:xxxx Quote Link to comment

itsdandandan Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 Has anyone got this working with Matt Thuisman's NZ/AU TV streams as linked below? https://www.matthuisman.nz/2017/08/nz-au-iptv-epg-files.html I just get an "Unable to tune channel" error in Plex and not sure where I should be looking to troubleshoot.

Tayshun12, manolodf(thanks for that!!) actually gave us the solution earlier in the thread. I didn't catch on right away. You have to edit your template and add the Name, DeviceID, and DeviceAuth variables. The values can be whatever you want them to be as long as they are unique to each device. On 3/13/2018 at 7:13 PM, manolodf said: So maybe there is a new template, otherwise just add the variables but I have unique Device IDs and name and stuff. On 3/13/2018 at 7:18 PM, manolodf said: I think I custom created those, can you check and see if the new template has those variables? Otherwise just add the Device ID Variable to your template, im thinking maybe your template is older or it is not something that has made it to the official template yet. Quote Link to comment
elmn8r Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 You have to install an instance of Telly for each "tuner" you want to use. For each of them, you have to edit the Telly docker template. At the bottom there is a selection to add path, port, variable, or device. Use this function to add Name, DeviceID and DeviceAuth variables for each Telly docker and make the values for each docker instance unique to the others. For example, Telly1 DeviceID could be 123, Telly2 DeviceID could be 456, Telly3 DiviceID could be 789, etc. Same for the other variables. Quote Link to comment
SinCityMedic Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 Good afternoon, I was hoping someone could help me with configuration. I have plex and telly installed as dockers on UNRAID. Plex has been working well with live tv from my HDHomeRun Prime and a cable card. I am looking to move from the cable card to an IPTV Service. I was able to get a m3u url for testing purposes and I know all of the channels and everything works in VLC. I installed Telly and i believe I configured it to everyones suggestions at the beginning of this thread however I am not able to get Plex to view telly for more than 1 minute. When i go to set up telly within plex it shows up for about 1 minute then it dissappears and wont show up again unless I reboot plex and telly. Is this something anyone else has run in to and if so how can I go about fixing it. Thank you for the help! Quote Link to comment

After I restart Plex, I see the other telly (one I have already configured) for a short time but when I attempt to add it, it vanishes. Also, I have manually added DEVICEID, FRIENDLYNAME and auth, as they were not in the version from the app store on Unraid. But the Tuner just is named HDHomerun(telly) and does not carry over the FRIENDLYNAME; even after multiple restarts of both Plex and the server itself. So I guess Plex does not recognize the other ID and name, even though it should, right? Quote Link to comment
dwarfer Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 Is anyone running plex on a seperate server to their unraid box running the telly docker? I am getting playback error unable to tune channel in plex and I think its because the telly docker is setting the base URL that it lessens on to localhost rather than the IP of my unraid server. This is what I get from the telly docker log: [telly] [warning] You are listening on all interfaces but your base URL is localhost (meaning Plex will try and load localhost to access your streams) - is this intended?[telly] [info] advertising telly service on network[telly] [debug] Advertising telly as HDHomerun (telly) (12345678-AE2A-4E54-BBC9-33AF7D5D6A92)[telly] [info] listening on 0.0.0.0:6077 I have tried adding a variable of -base with a value of 192.168.1.10:6077 to the docker as telly should support the -host= command to set the base URL, but this does not seem to work and I still get the same warning in the docker log. Anyone have any thoughts? Thanks! Quote Link to comment

Yes, I'm not sure why this happens but you get around it by adding it manually(click on the Enter it's network address manually link) and provide the IP address and port of your Telly instance. It should allow you to continue once that's done. Quote Link to comment

So I guess Plex does not recognize the other ID and name, even though it should, right? Plex will recognize them once you have the Telly instances set up properly. It seems that the KEY value is case sensitive. It MUST be all caps as manolodf shows us in his screen shots. Also, make sure your using unique values for each of the keys you're adding...

Damiexxi Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 Hi, I recently updated Telly and now it won't start. When I check the logs this is what I see. time="2018-08-13T01:25:57Z" level=info msg="Starting telly (version=, branch=, revision=)"time="2018-08-13T01:25:57Z" level=info msg="Build context (go=go1.10.3, user=, date=)"time="2018-08-13T01:25:57Z" level=warning msg="using default m3u option, 'iptv.m3u'. launch telly with the --iptv.playlist=yourfile.m3u option to change this!"time="2018-08-13T01:25:57Z" level=panic msg="error getting m3u" error="open iptv.m3u: no such file or directory"panic: (*logrus.Entry) (0xaf0d60,0xc42032a370) I have no clue what that means, would someone be able to assist me please.

alturismo Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 as the error explains, it doesnt find the m3u anymore ... i added this to extra parameters and the error is gone, described on the docker page. -e 'TELLY_IPTV_PLAYLIST'='/mnt/channel/channels.m3u' while /mnt .... needs to fit your needs seems since the latest update the PLAYLIST Key isnt recognized anymore ...
