Added to advancedsettings.xml and restarted kodi:
Update frequency for an empty EPG is every 50 minutes with the 2880 'minutes' setting:

This post from 2015 noted a seconds/minutes issue as well: https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=237109

It appears the default is set to 1 minute for empty EPGs and 5 minutes for regular updates here.
I can't see references to the updatecheckinterval / epg.epgupdate user setting from the default Kodi settings -> PVR -> Guide menu in the EPG code here https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/blob/master...pg/Epg.cpp and I'm wondering if the user setting is ignored and therefore an advancedsettings entry is required?
Related feature request/discussion point:
For empty EPG urls, what's the point in checking it over and over again anyway? Wouldn't it make more sense to stop checks when initialising and no URL is available? A url won't automagically appear.
