How to clear TVH settings for fresh setup?

Hi,

can someone tell me how to completely clear TVH from a Raspi 3? Somehow the config is messed up and I would like to set it up from scratch.
I already deleted the hts folder which did not work. Can someone give me a guidance please? Using TVH 4.2 on Raspbian Stretch on a RPi3.

Best regards

Stefan

You need to stop the service before deleting the config (it gets saved on exit).

Thats what I tried, I stopped and even disabled the service. When I try to delete /home/hts, this does not really work well, as I always get the info the folder would not be empty, but I can't see any content in it. If I then restart TVH, the config is still there. It there another folder that has to be deleted as well?

sudo service tvheadend stop
sudo rm -r /home/hts/.hts/
sudo service tvheadend start

Try this.

This reset method doesn't work with latest git commits.

Might be worth reporting on the GitHub if you haven’t already done so

In latest commits configs have probably moved to /var/lib/tvheadend.
