mickle026 401 Posted March 30, 2022 Share Posted March 30, 2022 I think LiveTV channel Icons/Images should update via the guide refresh, whether it be an m3u8 file of a HDHomerun or Tuner One of the current extremely frustrating issues is that if you use guide data, map the channels. Then Emby pulls the icons, this is fine. All is ok. However, when the Guide is changed, the icons don't change, so an incorrectly mapped file whether it be automatic or manual, won't get new channel images/icons until each "wrong" image is manually deleted. A checkbox to refresh images on guide updates or a button to refresh images manually (like a one time run)? So without this any changes make a channel will "appear" to be a completely different channel because of its channel logo/icon. Anything to update them without having to manually delete every single incorrect one (which is 3 deletes each, dark, light and grey with colour) would be very useful.

Luke 37085 Posted March 30, 2022 Share Posted March 30, 2022 Hi, yes the problem is that you could have changes made on the emby side that would be lost if we did that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vzane 2 Posted March 30, 2022 Share Posted March 30, 2022 Well this could be an option then. "Guide refresh overrides existing icons Y/N" Problem solved... Emby already has this type of option for other metadata. I agree with the OP that it is incredibly frustrating to have icons being mixed up all over the place every time the tuner line-up changes! I just had the same happening to me today... And since we are talking about the channel lineup: ordering it should be much simpler than it currently is with the up/down feature. There should be some buttons to automatically sort the lineup by either of the following, at a minimum: a) channel name, b) channel number, c) "Sort title" field (currently implemented but not doing anything, at least not for me).

Luke 37085 Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 OK yes more control over this is certainly possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mickle026 401 Posted March 31, 2022 Author Share Posted March 31, 2022 (edited) I added it to my own plugin here: https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/94263-backup-restore-actors-beta-with-local-or-web-based-restore/page/7/#comment-1129071 It works just fine without messing with anything else. 487 channels took just 2 seconds to remove all the logos on my system. They re-appeared correctly when I ran a guide refresh. All my logos are now correct. Edited March 31, 2022 by mickle026 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
