Using NextPVR in Docker v 7.0.5.260307 on a Proxmox Debian LXC

I get
No tuner was available for the requested channel.

All other channels (7,9,10) are working fine.
I have tested the ABC IPTV Streams in VLC and they works fine as well.

Let me know if there is anything else you'd like log wise or for me to test.

here is my docker compose.yaml:

Code:

  nextpvr:
    container_name: nextpvr
    image: nextpvr/nextpvr_amd64:stable
    user: "0:10000"
    restart: unless-stopped
    volumes:
      - /root/config:/config
      - /mnt/livetv:/recordings
      - /mnt/livetv:/buffer
    ports:
      - "8866:8866"
      - "16891:16891/udp"

Cheers!

NextPVR always forced i.mjh.nz URLSsto ffmpeg for various reasons. Those ABC URLs go to c.mjn.nz. Starting in the next version all mjh.nz URL will be forced. A patch is not possible.

Awesome, thanks for the prompt reply! Will patiently wait for the next version
