Its in the software itself, not in the browser. I dont have a viewer on my browser

You need some beginer basics with HTML5
player with is in browser = web player

Software player is something as VLC or KODI

maby this video can make you more informated about web player's
https://youtu.be/yY6XnbWnK4o when watch video
right click ot web player inside TVH tab in your browser and select "show controls"
then mistery of web player will shine.

Just install Kodi in your windows PC and use TVH as server.
Put some 5Amp charger to RPi,
put some active cooling,
conect to lan and forget it in some angle ;)

I apologize for not knowing that TVH has a facility to use a built-in player. I never try to watch live TV with it. That's what my TV set is for, sometimes :)

But you haven't answered any of my other questions, so I haven't responded further. Hopefully you now understand about playing video a little bit, or will find out soon (be warned, it can get very complicated if you let it). But that won't solve any of your problems with channels not recording or being able to watch them at all.

Could be but we won't know without logs, which were what I requested ages ago!
