Grabbed the zip from this thread OP which seems to come from the official github. Loads perfects with all dependencies on OpenELEC which frankly amazes me. I specifically tried this on windows because I wanted to see it working and expected OpenELEC to be a second hurdle. I dont actually use windows Kodi day to day only for testing.

I am probably going to have to abort my OE install as it is taking too long. 1.25 hours and updating channels only @ 6%. I can only assume this is a combination of MySQL, + atom CPU + very large library. Will throw some better hardware at it next time or perhaps leave it overnight.

I get extremely slow channel builds also. About 35-45 minutes for maybe around 70 channels and that's on an i7 processor. So there's more to it than just your Atom.

Chtypes? you can always disable "Find missing guidedata" which greatly increases channel building.
Also make sure system cache and "Override Stream Validation" is enabled.

I'm not familiar with the different channel types like you guys talk about. All channels are based off local content and I don't use autotune or any of the internet/Youtube channels. The vast majority are based on just tv show name or movie genre, but I do have a few that are based off smart playlists and a couple use channel interleaving. The thing for me is that I haven't changed my channel configuration in some time and it used to be much quicker on much less hardware (Ion). I never had a need to time it before but I'd say 5-8 minutes to build all channels. It also seems like when Time Between Channel Resets was set to auto it would usually only reset a couple channels on each start up. Nowadays it seems to reset most or all. Everything just seemed much faster on Gotham and/or the older PSTVL builds. Find Missing GuideData is off, Cache is enabled. I don;t have Override Stream Validation enabled as I thought that was for the internet channels.
