v17 Best way to update channels?

How do you get your EPG Data? Do you grab the stream epg data?


The way i do a update scan:

First i have to mention that i use a group called "Fernsehen". This group contains all channels for daily use. I manually set up channel number inside this group.
Then i do a scan with "channel movement detection" enabled.

This will result with a full channel list for "channels".

I will sort this list by "Provider" and delete all foreign ones.
After this step i sort by "Groups" to get a list of all new channels.

Then adding all new and wanted channels to my group "Fernsehen".

Now i refresh the list and delete all channels except the ones belong to "Fernsehen".
Not to forget to map all new channels to all available tuners.

Last i will again manually add channel sort numbers and setup up the epg mapping for the new channels.
If needed i will add the new channel logo files.


In case i will face issues inside kodi after doing it this way i would first recheck with a installed mepo client.(Server)
If there is no issue i will drop kodis tv database and do a fresh add on setup.


Wouldnt call it the best way but works for me.
