LiveTV and DVR Suddenly No Longer Work with a single channel, sits at 99% and never starts playing

I’ve been using LiveTV for about a month and I’ve generally had no problems. Suddenly a single channel of interest will no longer load for playback, or record shows. Some info:

  • All other channels tune properly in Plex with LiveTV.
  • The non-working channel tunes properly in any player (plex plugins, HDHomeRun windows app, etc) except Plex.
  • I’m running 1.9.6 on the server, but I noticed the problem on 1.7.5 and upgraded to see if it fixed the issue. It did not.
    -Rebooted, because why not. It did not help.

I’m sort of at a loss on how to debug/address this issue. This channel is ABC in my local network, which has Jeopardy and is basically my sole reason for using this setup - to record and watch Jeopardy.

How can I go about trying to get this back into a working state?

Thanks!

After some additional testing, it looks like Live TV still works for this channel if I load it via the web player. My typical playback devices are Rokus. So, no working DVR for the show, and no playback on Roku for this single channel.

I spoke too soon. I tried the web player and I get the following message “Unable to tune channel (No parts)”. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
