No variant streams found for this station, #267

No variant streams found for this station. Assuming single stream only.

I attached a screenshot of the python window. Is this something I need to worry about? I "peek" in on the python window once in a while just to make sure all is well and this is the first time I've seen this.

Thanks, Larry

No, you don't need to worry about it.

It means that locast is only making available a single stream and that is the one you will get.

When multiple streams are available, locast2plex will look at the list and chose the best from those offered.

I have the same message in terminal window Mac OSX Mac mini M1 (Big Sur v11.4). Everything is showing up in the show guides but I am not getting live TV feed stream

As stated by @ecowitness the statement "Found 0 Playlists" means there is no list ... only one stream is available. This normally occurs on 480p channels since they really cannot have lower end streams while 1080 and 720 streams can also provide lower quality streams and have a playlist of different stream quality. If a playlist appears, Locast2Plex will normally select the best quality stream available. If no playlist is available, then it just plays the only stream provided. These log entries are normal for streams that do not have a playlist.
