Restart required for newly mapped channels to show up in the EPG search, undocumented
0%
Description
Through trial and error I discovered that after mapping a channel to an XMLTV source, you need to then restart the TVH service (or in the case of OpenElec it's easier to just reboot) before those listings will show up. I couldn't find this documented in the Help menu, it seems like it should at least be mentioned there, if not improved to not require a restart and be built into the "Save" button. Thanks!

You don't need to restart, you just need to wait for the next XMLTV update (data for unmapped channels is not held). You can force a run by enabling and disabling the EPG grabber (I think). This is unfortunately a limitation of using something like XMLTV.

Thanks for the info, that behavior wasn't obvious to me. I'll submit a pull request with some extra documentation.
