How to watch, find the TV Guide, and what to do if something isn't working.
🚧 We're still building
FLM TV isn't like other networks. The entire platform (the channel, this website and the Roku and Fire TV apps) was built single-handedly by one person, with no outside streaming company or OTT provider behind it. That makes FLM TV completely independent, and it's still growing. A team will be brought on as the network expands.
While new features are added, you may now and then see a show freeze, a page load slowly, or something look different than it did yesterday. Problems are watched closely and fixed fast. Thank you for your patience and for being part of something built from the ground up! 💛
🔄 If a show freezes or stops
Most interruptions clear up in a minute or two. Try these in order:
💻 On a computer
Refresh the page: press F5 (or Ctrl+R; on a Mac ⌘+R), then press Play again. If the page looks odd after an update, do a full refresh with Ctrl+Shift+R (Mac: ⌘+Shift+R).
📱 On a phone or tablet
Tap your browser's reload button, or pull down from the top of the page to refresh. Still stuck? Close the browser tab and open flmtv.com again.
🔥 On Fire TV
Press Back on your remote, then choose Watch Live again. If it's still frozen, close the FLM TV app and reopen it.
📺 On Roku
Press Back, then select the live channel again. If that doesn't work, press Home and reopen FLM TV.
⏳ Still not working?
Wait a couple of minutes and try again. If we're fixing something, it's usually back shortly. It also helps to check your own internet by opening another video or website.
📡 Watching Channel 26.5 with an antenna
FLM TV airs on Channel 26.5 through a separate broadcast station. The station, its transmitter and the 26.5 frequency are run by the station, not by FLM TV, so some over-the-air problems are outside our control. Here's what you can do:
📶 Adjust your antenna
Move it higher or closer to a window, and turn it slightly. Small changes can make a big difference.
🔍 Rescan your channels
On your TV, open Settings and look for Channel Scan or Auto Program (the name varies by TV brand). Run the scan, then tune back to 26.5.
⛈️ Bad weather
Wind, storms and heavy rain can break up the picture. It normally returns on its own once the weather clears.
🏢 The broadcast station
Sometimes the station has a technical or frequency issue, or does maintenance. FLM TV can't fix those directly, but the channel comes back as soon as the station resolves it.
