Remove channels

[Mithrandir]

When first testing NextPVR on Ubuntu I added several devices (IPTV) and got like 30k+ channels from them, now I've decided to use only one service with only 2,000 channels for all recording purposes so I would like to remove all of the rest from my set up.

I've tried removing the channels by going into Settings -> Channels select batches and click the remove icon, this is done correctly but when I go into the device and add all the channels again but they continue from the numbering from before. Is there a way to delete a channels folder/file while the service is down which will allow me to have a clean slate device and channel wise?

Thanks for your response.

Go to the Setting->Devices screen, hold the Ctrl key, and click the 'delete' button that appears next to your IPTV device.

When reimporting your m3u8/xmltv, use the filtering, so that you only import the channel groups you're interested in, as described in this recent post: https://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.ph...#pid574381

I see. Thanks.

Is there a way to stop the service, delete a configuration file/folder to have a clean slate when I restart the service again?

If you used the deb installer sudo apt purge nextpvr-helper

I have too many IPTV Services but only one for me that i have inserted and this is at the bottom. 25 lines down my screenshot.

Is there any option that i can delete all IPTV Services (because when i click on CTRL + Delete it will nothing delete...)?

Your problem is unrelated to the problem described above in this post. You will probably need to post the logs so we can see what is happening.
