channel IR sent on Live TV

Hi

I have noticed that whenever I select Live TV from the UI the IR code for the last channel that GBPVR was using is sent. Is this planned behaviour? Is there an option to stop it?

If you've got your capture source set to use an IR Blaster, then this is normal.

When you start live tv it'll return to the channel it was last on. It has no idea whether a set top box is still on that channel, so it'll have to send the command to switch to that channel. It needs to know what channel its on so that the OSD info matches etc.

Understood about the OSD sync issue, any chance of an advanced option in the config.xml to disable the feature for when things are going terrible wrong

To be honest, probably not. Its been done this way for over three years and never been a problem up until now.
