I don't have the answer to this problem but "Downton Abbey" is on other services. It might be on ITV and CBC. I know I saw it somewhere when looking around the UK Services websites the other day.

It appears that the Indian region isn't using the same API as the rest of the world. You can try to edit realm and base URL, but it's likely to fail when trying to fetch episodes since the whole structure seems different. Might be worth a try, though.

base_url: "https://ap2-prod-direct.discoveryplus.in"
realm: "dplusindia"

is this correct

Envied already has a TPTV service, seeing as it's almost identical to Unshackle you could probably use this Devine to Unshackle migration command to migrate the Envied service to Unshackle (obiviously changing the names around)

Thank you for pointing this out. So get these Services from Envied and you right click in the Services folder and chose launch terminal and then input the code and it should get it all fixed up?

Yeah, I just tried and it works. I'm on linux so I used:

find unshackle/services/ -type f -name "*.py" -exec sed -i 's/from envied/from unshackle/g' {} +

Then needed to install a couple of dependencies

pip install webvtt-py isodate

Then added credentials in yaml, then it worked...

I did not have good result with the code but what I did is I opened files up in notepad and used find and replace and got rid of envied and put unshackle in its place. I can't test it until we actually have those two services. If it don't work it don't work life goes on. I have a lot to be grateful for.

You probably ran it from the wrong folder, I noticed you previously wrote

So get these Services from Envied and you right click in the Services folder and chose launch terminal and then input the code and it should get it all fixed up?

And thats wrong, if you look at the code it's first searching for a folder named unshackle, then services

Get-ChildItem -Path "unshackle/services" -Recurse -Filter *.py -File |
  ForEach-Object {
      $f = $_.FullName
      (Get-Content -Raw -LiteralPath $f) -replace 'from devine', 'from unshackle' |
          Set-Content -LiteralPath $f
  }

On a default install Unshackle has a folder named unshackle that looks like this:

You need to open the terminal in the above folder and run the command, then it will locate the unshackle/services folder and edit the code. Or I've attached the services, you can just copy these in to your services folder and they'll work.

I can't test it until we actually have those two services. If it don't work it don't work life goes on.

I don't know what you mean by that, why can't you test it? It does work, see my above example.

So is it the main unshackle folder or the uv lock folder as it was highlighted?

I meant there were a couple of premium services we might be getting as there is a bundle deal for basic ad laden versions of said services. However I am not expecting the services to really work and if they don't life goes on and besides we are not even suppose to discuss said services so I will leave it at that. But one such service everything I tried it with in the past didn't work and they wouldn't let me use my VPN to watch the U.S. version.

I forgot to write thank you.

[vidsrme]

Yep the uv.lock folder - open a terminal there and run the command and it will work.

Thank you I will give that a try

I gave it a try and checked and it seems to have changed to unshackle. Thank you for your guidance.

Can TPTV / Encore be added please ?

Envied already has a TPTV service, seeing as it's almost identical to Unshackle you could probably use this Devine to Unshackle migration command to migrate the Envied service to Unshackle (obiviously changing the names around)

I was meaning for unshackle though

I have added only the TPTV folder into services and added a line for credentials in yaml but trying to download in my case out of town doesn't work

I had to delete the envied or devine services as they caused an issue with Unshackle. The issue was with vtt and asked for a module to be installed which I did but didn't seem to be found and so thankfully when I deleted those services Unshackle is working again. Most of the services I don't need as they are not available in Canada and thus I can't subscribe to them. There were two I really wanted to try but I can do without.

[A_n_g_e_l_a]

double pissed.

Learn to be a detective!
[Attachment 89972 - Click to enlarge] Look around for clues where the services live!

uv add webvtt-py

was all that was needed. You give up too easily! [edit] missed out hyphen py now added[/edit]

But the far easiest route is to use TwinVine; no messing around copying stuff; it just works

[vidsrme]

The issue was with vtt and asked for a module to be installed which I did but didn't seem to be found.

Like I said, couple of dependencies needed

Then needed to install a couple of dependencies

pip install webvtt-py isodate

[Tom Saurus]

I deserve that critique and I better apply myself more. My brain is all over the place I had to get Unshackle set up on my older Beelink Mini PC as my new GMKtek Mini PC has collapsed. I am on the Windows 7 Desktop at the moment but I will give this a try when I get over to the Beelink Mini PC. I freaked when Unshackle stopped working and the webvtt didn't seem to install. I am just rotten about all that system path stuff. But I better get proficient at it. Thanks for the guidance and I know I am a twit.

I did muddle around enough on my Sister's PC to get Twinvine set up and had success with a download from CTV. Then next time I fired up the program I was blocked as it was looking for some module and I gave up on that for now. I am working away at getting Twinvine configured at the Beelink Mini PC.

I want to get both Twinvine and Unshackle working well. So I will keep at it.

PLEX has a lot of terrific stuff I ran across last night they have that six part documentary of really perplexing weather "Sharknado". Jerry Springer was never quite the same after he got gobbled by a shark but G.R.R.M. is still around and still working away at his conclusion to GoT; I suspect G.R.R.M. even though he got gobbled by the shark that he got a little hungry and ate the shark that ate him because he got a bit peckish.

[Tom Saurus]

I have just put in the two additional services that I want to try. I have run the command and I am doing a test download from PlLEX and so far no warnings. Thank you for your patience and guidance.

No. Not pip install! That will work but it installs those packages system wide. The whole point of uv is that it creates a virtual environment ( .venv ) whick keeps track of the packages. It can also have and use packages of different version numbers than those packages installed by pip. In this way, several version of the same package can be used by various python scripts on one machine.

The whole point of running unshackle via uv is that it uses a virtual environment to protect itself from dependency version clashes.

So tl:dr uv add webvtt-py is the correct way to add packages to unshackle.
