Description

It is possible that channel names change, e.g. "Channel 5" in the UK keeps changing its name, it was "five" for a while. If a recording has a channel name which is not recognised by TVHeadend, it is not made available to any interfaces. I wonder if this is due to the code in dvr_db.c, dvr_db_load_one()

  if((ch = channel_find_by_name(s, 0, 0)) == NULL)

This happens even if the channel name has changed case, e.g. "BBC ONE" changes to "BBC One" will mean recordings made when it was "BBC One" are no longer available.
