[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1121394, member: 82144"] Practically, yes. To be clear: by that I mean that [U]TV Server currently[/U] does not have any other mechanism for finding new channels or detecting channel movements. However, that's not to say that it wouldn't be possible to implement other mechanisms for finding new channels and detecting channel movements, and so completely avoid the need for rescanning. For example, I know the DVB standards specify various formats for network change messages. If those messages could be received then that problem could be solved. Note I'm hoping JDWestoby and The Doctor will chime in with more information, because I'm still not clear on their reasonings. Yes, that could be done. :) [/QUOTE]
