Isn't that what Channels DVR server is already doing though? Or supposed to be doing.
As i mentioned, even manually trigger of refresh in Channels sometimes does not result in guide data.
No errors are shown in the logs.
How does setting a OS level task accomplish what a third party software does internally?
Task manager? Do you mean Task Scheduler? My server is running on Win 11.
I have never used a cron job. If i recall, that is a Linux thing.
scheduled task is the windows equivalent
EDIT: I also have a 2nd server, that is Linux based, and it has the exact same issues with Guide data.
So it not a Windows thing.
