I'm one of the Android TV and Tablo dual users. I know that Live Channel support is "on the roadmap" but I'm impatient, and really want to make this work so I can make it easier for my wife.
I found using the http://TABLOIP:18080/pvr/ and saw that a temp folder is opened for the live streams and the number appears to be unique for each channel.
Using VLC I am able to stream http://TABLOIP:18080/pvr/CHNO/pl/playlist.m3u8 and get the appropriate channel live.
Need help with the last step... Live Channel integration. Tried using Cumulus TV but just get a black screen. Not sure if it's an issue with being a local file, my system setup... etc. But this would be a great stopgap until Tablo figures this out.
Thanks!
Update: I spoke too quickly. The "link" above only works when the Tablo has the feed already selected, and then Cumulus will let it play in Live Channels, but will not change the channel for you. Hopefully there are those smarter than me that can help.
It's feasible that, if tablo had an API, to change it along through a request when receiving the onTune event. However, you can't do this in Cumulus.
