[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 996120, member: 82144"] Hello Jacob First, I'd strongly recommend that you don't enable channel movement detection unless you understand what it means. When not used carefully it can cause channels to be updated in unexpected ways. The frequency is not relevant. What matters is the original network ID (ONID) and service ID (SID). If you don't enable channel movement detection then the transport stream ID (TSID) is also important. For DVB-C, DVB-S/S2 and DVB-T/T2 TV Server uses those fields as the unique identifier for channels. In other words, you shouldn't have two channels with the same ONID+SID combination. Channel movement works because channels should keep the same ONID and SID even when the frequency (and TSID) change. So, my question to you would be: do you have any other channel with ONID 1 and SID 145 (and TSID 31)? I expect you probably do... and since TV Server does not rename channels by design, it will appear like the channel is not there... but it is there with the wrong name. So for example, if the removed channel had the same ONID and SID as the new channel, TV Server will think the new channel is the same and won't rename it. There is no 100% perfect way for us to know a channel is "new", and most of the time people prefer to have the ability to have customised channel names. This is one of the situations where that design decision has potential problems. mm [/QUOTE]
