Description

I'm running HTS Tvheadend 4.2.7-35~g44ac78d26 and I cannot seem to stop the internal epg grabber from running every time I start the computer or every time I make an edit to the epg grabber preferences. In fact it seems to queue up epg update triggers every time I hit "save", so it might run three or four times in a row if I'm working on it.

I have the cron jobs completely commented out, but that doesn't seem to stop this behavior.

I am trying to set this up for a location that will only have internet when I am physically there, which is not too often. Also the internet bandwidth is limited, so I don't want to run the grabber more than once after I have set up the temporary internet connection.

I can understand why you might want the epg to update after something is edited relating to it, but a checkbox that sets it so it only runs when manually triggered by the "re-run internal grabbers" would be a useful option for myself and others who have similar situations.

Thanks,
-Ted
