IPTV Group Listings

[pmuraw]

I subscribe to an IPTV service, which I have loaded the m3u file into NextPVR, v4.2.5 191014.  The m3u file contains  group ids, which are also
loaded into the device settings.  My id and password has changed, and in an effort to avoid some work, I exported my channel listing to xml,
edited the file to reflect the new login credentials, and imported the xml back into npvr.  I now find that the groups are not present. Is there some
switch or checkbox that I need to use to get the groups to migrate?  

Is there some other method I can use to globally edit the channels to keep the groups?

Thanks in advance.

Unfortunately there is nothing built in to export/import the channel groups.

IPTV takes more work. For just changing static information like URL's including username and password sqlite scripts are easy to create. However this doesn't take into account mapping changes that the provider might make.

Here is one I uses to update a single url for a public site I use that changes often

Code:

update channel_mapping
set tuning = replace(tuning,substr(tuning,instr(tuning,'<source>') + 8, instr(tuning,'</source>') - instr(tuning,'<source>') - 8),'http://....')
where channel_oid = 9583;

A global change could be much easier
