I am switching from legacy cable to IPTV. My boxes are Arris Xi6-A - this is with Rogers Cable in Canada, but it is the same as Comcast Xfinity. I want to use IP tuning so I am looking at some of these gentuner scripts. Some of these are in perl - I will be running these in the SageTV docker on unRAID. Does perl exist in the SageTV docker?

Which docker image are you using with unRAID? I don't believe the ones from @stuckless have Perl included by default.

Thanks for getting back to me.

I am using the Stuckless ones or newer ones that were updated by Jusjoken based on the Stuckless containers. I have been able to write the gentuner file as a bash script instead which means I don't need perl or anything else installed. I am using IP tunings and I altered the gentuner.IPSTB sample file. Fore some reason that was using wget commands - I changed these to curl commands which seems to make more sense as curl is less verbose and doesn't try to download a file the way that wget does.

I think that I now have it working properly but I have yet to do extensive testing. But so far, so good.
