Can't Add to Plex/Channel Count Undefined, other frustrations

[Crono141]

Hi,

First, thanks for this. I have been trying to set up a new computer to act as HDhomerun with 4 tuners, but I keep running into the same problems. I tried tvhProxy first, but error messages weren't clear, and the project has been abandoned so I can't get support from the dev.

Here's the problem, and I think they have the same root cause (which I'm trying to find). Tvheadend is set up with a test antenna, and it has pulled in 8 channels (from 1 provider). Its assigned 25-1 through 8 channel numbers, and I can watch these channels through the tvheadend direct stream (not sure what to call them, I hit the watch button, it downloaded a file, and I opened it and my media player started playing back live TV). So I know I at least have my channels working.

With tvhProxy, when I went to add the tuner to plex, it complained that it couldn't get my channels. It also won't let me change the type of channels (Cable, Overair, Sattelite). Its stuck gray and cable is defaulted. I checked my login username and password and all that, as well as network origin settings in tvheadin, and all seems correct. With antennas (run through node), I get a little further, it doesn't complain about not getting channels, but I still can't select channel types, and when plex goes to scan channels it returns 0 channels.

In the Antennas landing page (localhost:5004) it says status is all systems go, but channel count is "undefined".

Checking the terminal output where I've run antennas shows these lines repeated:
<-- GET /device.xml
--> GET /device.xml 200 7ms 2.45kb
<-- GET /discover.json
--> GET /discover.json 200 2ms 392b
<-- GET /lineup_status.json
--> GET /lineup_status.json 200 1ms 77b
<-- GET /lineup.json

I thought I read somewhere that a 200 status response to these GET requests meant it couldn't access them, so that's why I was beating my head against USER/PASS options. But now I'm not so sure. I'm motivated to get this figured out this weekend, so any help you can provide would be awesome. Thanks in advance.

Have you figured it out? I think I'm having the same issue.

My log looks like this:
