Force client to update

Is there a way to force a client to check in with the server? I run Channels on a stream 4k that has channels running off an added thumb drive additional space. It lags and won't always show latest recordings. i have to reboot to get it to update. So just wondering if a 'force' option is possible?

This isnt a channels problem, its a device issue. Doubtful they will consider this request as it can be solved with a device upgrade. You might want to look into using tasker to reboot the device based on a condition that you set.
