Hi Klaas (or others): After the retune the 'chanid' part of the
filename for new recordings on some channels now has no obvious
relationship to the 'public' logical channel number, or to the channel
scanning log. For example, Channel 4 used to be 10004 and is now 44054.
I know this link has not been guaranteed in the past and has been broken
when individual channels have moved, but now it's widespread. A quick
search hasn't found much, although I remember parts of earlier threads
about it. Can I do some sort of reset, or am I stuck with the new numbers?
Cheers,
John
