ebr 14913 Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 But my point is that no changes in the guide data are going to affect the name of the channel coming from your tuner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justinrh 174 Posted January 22 Author Share Posted January 22 (edited) You'll have to explain this to me. What does the guide supply and what does the guide supply? Does Emby merge data from both are is it exclusively one source of data? You are not giving me enough to understand. You have a caching BUG of some sort.

Luke 37066 Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 OK if you're going to just link to other topics requiring jump around to find information, then we might as well just merge them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's bad form. They are separate issues and ebr was ignoring it, so I thought it be to keep them separate so it can be dealt with. Why should I re-hash it if I can just point to an existing post?

Luke, I hope you are not following the convo. ebr was comparing without a lineup and with a lineup, and his comment didn't make sense to me. You are not commenting in that context, as far as I can tell. Can you two get together and have one mind to address this? So, can you explain the diff between no lineup and with a lineup? Then maybe you are confirming you have a bug?? This has gotten so twisted up, and now you want to go merging issues ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In that screenshot you posted, you go from top to bottom, first entering a zip code, then selecting a lineup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justinrh 174 Posted January 23 Author Share Posted January 23 Oh my ... I know how to operate the UI. The context you jumped into is why the channel's network name is wrong. If a lineup is not configured, the name comes from the tuner. So, if you DO have a lineup configured, where does the name come from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justinrh 174 Posted February 12 Author Share Posted February 12 Any ETA when either issue will be resolved? https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/124572-huntsville-al-channel-483-changed-to-365/&do=findComment&comment=1317200 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justinrh 174 Posted February 15 Author Share Posted February 15 (edited) Well, we are almost there. The channel in the admin list is 100%, but in the user guide I still can't get the correct icon. I can see the icon available when I edit the channel meta data, but the icon can't be selected. I poke on it and nothing happens, and there is no Save action to commit it.

Luke 37066 Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 Just now, justinrh said: There is no such thing as selecting an icon. You don't pick one of those icons. The Emby app automatically chooses one based on the color theme you have selected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justinrh 174 Posted February 15 Author Share Posted February 15 (edited) 6 minutes ago, Luke said: There is no such thing as selecting an icon. Then why is there an image edit button on the channel detail? Then why does it show icons to choose from at all that even show delete buttons? Then why doesn't it use the correct icon? You make no sense. You don't choose images based on theme. The channel icon is the channel icon - you think my local channel is going to offer Emby diff images to choose base on Emby themes?

Luke 37066 Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 So that you can change the contents of each image slot if desired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution justinrh 174 Posted February 15 Author Solution Share Posted February 15 (edited) Either way, the old images were not purged. I purged them via Delete and now I have the correct image. All the images are the same size, and Emby is probably not using AI to decide the old Circle image fits the dark theme better than the new THE365 image. Neither image fits the theme better than the other. No doubt something didn't work correctly there (from the USER perspective). Ah, yes, I see the bug now - the new image is in the dark version, and I'm using dark theme (right?), so it should have used it. Edited February 15 by justinrh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37066 Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 The image you deleted will probably come back on the next guide refresh. I don't think there was any problem of something not getting purged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justinrh 174 Posted February 15 Author Share Posted February 15 Nope. Still all good after a guide refresh. AND now all the icons are correct! Still think there was not a purging problem? See the bug analysis in my previous post, and I think you will have to logically agree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37066 Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 No because the guide refresh does not replace existing images, otherwise you'd lose any customizations. So normally when the epg provider changes it's images, it will stay as it is in Emby Server. As a side note, it is getting more and more difficult to help you, and i wish that it weren't because you do report great issues and have great feedback. However in addition to issues that you report, it seems they are frequently combined with berating and/or condescending remarks that make it unenjoyable to continue as well as take longer to find the source of the problem. For example, in other topic you reported a channel missing from your guide in late December, and we just now, six weeks later finally figured out that the issue was in your HDHR setup. Normally I would have been in there asking a million questions and we would have hunted it down much quicker, but it gets increasingly harder to do that knowing the kind of treatment we are inevitably going to receive. So please just keep that in mind, there is a human side to all of this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justinrh 174 Posted February 15 Author Share Posted February 15 (edited) 10-4. Yeah, that other one was a bit confusing and may have been partly because of jargon/terminology, not sure. I hope we both remember to rescan the tuner next time anyone see that kind of problem! Something still doesn't jive with my experience and your statements. The first image was automagically fixed. It wasn't until I deleted the old ones that the others were fixed (as designed or not). But it's done. I understand what you are saying, Luke, and I don't like it either. I don't want to come across that way. Sometimes the questions that are asked just seem like you've never used Emby before. Or you ask about what (I thought) was already answered and I feel like I'm starting over after several posts later. I hope we can do better from now on. I know you have been patient with me. My apologies. Edited February 15 by justinrh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
