Hello,
I apology if this subject has already been discussed before, but i couldn't find
any definitive answer to my problem :
Sometimes i don't tune in some given channels for some time, just to realise that
the channel's name has changed. I started to reorganise my channels.conf using VDR
"mark channels" then move them up/down, and after i was done i zapped through channels
for a while and then shut down VDR.
I was disappointed to see that my changes weren't saved and that i had to start all over
again.
So what's the best way to avoid such a mistake ?
- tune to somme channels, wait a few seconds that names (and pids) are updated,
write the list down, and then manually edit channels.conf with a text editor ?
- use a plugin (channelsort) ?
- wait some time so that VDR writes the changes down ?
(i don't remember what are the conditions so that VDR triggers files update,
IIRC, no epg scan, no activity for xx minutes)
My config has only one FF DVB-S card.
Thanks much,
Philippe
PS: same problem would eventually occur to epg data, so any advice is welcome as well
to handle epg data updates.
