TVHEADEND - HTS Tvheadend 4.2.8-4~g9f7ab681a~bionic
OS -Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS
Kodi - 17.6
IPTV provider - Vaderstreams
I have created a "IPTV Network Automatic" network with a URL that contains my userid and password for my Vader account. Tvheadend successfully recognizes 1200+ muxes. After first initial scan of these 1200+ muxes, it end up with about 1000 Services.
I then selectively parse through these 1000 services and individually select my desired muxes, and map them. Typicall less than 100.
After mapping them, I end up with individual Channels, with properly resolved names. All works as planned. Kodi via the Tvheaded PVR addon picks up the 100 channels.
Then sometime in the next 24 hours or so, most of my 100 channels are corrupted or changed. The NAME field will get set to "name-not-set", they disappear from my Kodi channel listing. In "DVB Inputs - Services" tab, I notices that for my choosen 100 channels, the CHANNEL column is not blank.
I think that Tvheadend is automatically rescanning all Vader muxes during the night. After which they are not proper merged/reconciled with the previously mapped channel and I end up with "name-not-set". This does not happen for all 100 channels, strangly there are seem to be 5-8 that are un-affected by this cycle.
I have tried to configure Tvheaded from doing any additional mux scans after the initial scan, but have not stumbled on the correct parameters to achive this. Plus if I was successful with this approach, it seems that it would only be a work-around, and just mask the base problem.
Is there away to force Tvheadend to stop subsequent mux scans after the initial scan?
I have tried to reselect my choosen Services and remap them with the "Merge", but since the name fields are corrupt, this does not work.
Anyone have a proper solution.
Thanks in advance!
