Comcast and VPN

jrockow · 2023-02-10, 07:29 PM

Recently my IPTV channels stopped working.
Apparantly this is Comcast's doing?
The solution was to first run a VPN.

However, now I get the following error, "Streaming failed (transcoder exited)",
when I try to play a Comcast channel, via my HDHR, while the VPN is activated.

I have loaded NPVR Ver 6.1.1.221106.

I have attached the log; any ideas? Thanx!

Most VPNs aren't setup to accept local traffic when active, so when your VPN is active you can't access your local network. Sometimes there are settings in the VPN to enable local network too, so you might need to look for that.

Thanx for your reply.
I will look into your suggestion.
