So for future reference does this sound like the right way to update a
channel lineup:
1. Shutdown mythbackend (fc: service mythbackend stop) and mythfrontend
No. Leave mythbackend running. You will need it when you update the
lineup. According to the dialog, deleting the settings won't change the
current recording schedule (although once you get the new listings the
schedule may change as errors are corrected and gaps in the listings are
filled).
Actually, You /should/ stop mythbackend...
See http://cvs.mythtv.org/trac/changeset/7392 , specifically the warning
added:
WARNING
MythTV has detected that the backend is running. Changing existing card
inputs, deleting anything, or scanning for channels may not work.
2. Run mythtv-setup
3. Leave card seting but delete channel settings
4. Video Sources->New Video source
5. Give source a name and enter in xmltv settings and get listings, finish
6. Input Connections->/dev/video0->Tuner0 (I assume this would slightly
depend on the card
7. Set Video Source to name from #5
8. Exit mythtv-setup
9. Restart mythbackend (fc: service mythbackend start) and mythfrontend
You don't need to restart the backend, but you do need to (as root) run
the cron.daily job to get the listings, as step #5 will only get channel
information and not episodes.
