Abilty to sort Filmon favourite channels via Kodi #46

Closed Mike-KL closed 8 years ago

Trying pvr.filmon addon in LibreElec on Rpi2 Kodi (LibreELEC (Jarvis 16.1-RC2) v6.90.005)

Working really well :+1:

Currently unable to modify favorites channel sort provided by Filmon within kodi Tv Settings, Channel Manager. (Can move channels up/down in list within channel manager but save doesn't do anything)

Note: Additionally I added a request on Filmon support site today to see if sorting can be provided from within free filmon account. (prior to request from Kodi to update favorites list on a restart of kodi for example)

Checked in background settings files of pvr.filmon and cannot find file that provides the sort seen in Kodi TV interface.

Just a comment against last post that I have now figured out that "I can" re-order filmon favourite channels within Kodi. I just needed to switch from setting level from standard to expert in order to see both the following options.

Use channel order from backend(s) => Disabled Use channel numbers from backend => Disabled

With both options set to disabled I could move and then save channel order, which appears to correctly persist after a reboot of kodi. (Not first time GUI settings level option, has caught me out :-( )

OK, After further review of Kodi functionality with settings level higher than basic and options above disabled I appreciated that not only can I move and reorder but that I can mix and switch channels between two active PVR's at same time, currently using Filmon API and TVheadend back-ends with PVR Filmon and TVheadend HTSP client front-ends, working really well.
