Is there a straightforward way to make PTVL "redo" the schedule for a user channel, completely ignoring what has previously been scheduled?

I am having an issue where I created a smart playlist (TGIF sitcoms from the 90s), originally pulling from only two TV shows as a test. I created a channel from it, and at first blush everything seemed good: the channel appeared in the guide with an assortment of episodes of those two shows. Then, I modified the smart playlist to include about a dozen total shows. But when I look at the guide, the next day and change are still exclusively those first two shows. I have to go way out in the timeline before I start to see the more recently-added content start to get sprinkled in.

I have tried exiting & restarting Kodi, deleting the channel in the manager & then re-creating it. Most recently, I even tried a complete uninstall of PTVL + reinstall & re-creating the channel. Every time, the result is effectively the same: hours and hours of only those first two shows, before it eventually pivots over to a more expected distribution of all of the content.

Not really, you'd have to clear the cache (simplecache.db) and delete the xmltv file to force a rebuild.

I'll look into adding additional code to handle smartplaylist changes....
