Automatic channel reordering after some time

Added by Matija Matijevac over 10 years ago

Hi,

I have some strange situation. When I sort my DVB-S channels either via config file or TVHeadend admin interface, after some time (few hours?), channels are back-ordered in some strange order, and there is always the same order. After some checking, I suppose that channels are ordered by some kind of category, but, for example there is no all my HD channels available etc.

After few times of resorting channels, I finally made a channel list backup :). So, after my channels are reordered, I stop tvheadend service, copy channel list from backup, restart TVHeadend service and everything is back in place. But again, after few hours, channel list is reordered automatically. In XBMC HTS client, I set "use channel order from backend", and I turned off "sync groups with backend".

Of course, I can manually edit TV22.db, turn off sync with TVHeadend in XBMC, and sort channels "once for all time" in XBMC, but I'm curios why this is happening.

I have only one DVB-S card assigned to TVheadend. Openelec version 3.2.4, XBMC version 12.3, TVHeadend version 3.4.27~gfbda802.

There is nothing strange in log files.

Thnx.

BR,
Matija

Hi Matija
There is an option "Update channel number" in the EPG Grabber tab.
This tells tvheadend to change the channel number back to the default value that the content provider gave to channel.
