I accidentally deleted one of my channel groups and had to redo my m3u. I cleared the channels listed in the device and thought it was removed. After importing my m3u in the blank IPTV device the empty device is back with no option to delete it. This is also causing my channel group I accidentally removed to still not show up in the guide.

On the Settings->Devices page, if you hold down the Ctrl key, you'll see a trash can on the device to delete it.

It's done this way to reduce the risk of anyone accidentally clicking it.

(Yes, you'll need to do it from a PC or laptop, where you actually have a Ctrl key)

FYI, in this scenario you probably could have gone into the IPTV device, and hit the Update M3U, and it'll pull in the channels and groups again.

Thanks for the help. I did actually try the update m3u button several times. It didn't pull the group back in. Might be a good idea to add the extra step or a confirmation dialog to group deletion. A setting enabling or disabling a confirmation dialog could be useful for those who don't want it. Using a touch screen it's pretty easy to hit the delete icons by accident. I appreciate all the time you put in to the development and support. I feel bad asking for you to do more work. Hopefully you think my suggestions are a good idea. I also completely understand if you don't and don't add them. Thanks again.

I think there are two groups here, the IPTV groups and NextPVR groups, simply bringing in an m3u won't recreate an NextPVR group.

Also all deletes even recording cancel and deletes should prompt from the browser especially when ConfirmOnDelete is set true.
