Change name of Channel with XMLTV

One of my providers changed their whole lineup configuration and I spent Sunday working on fixing things. Anyway, while I was doing that I seem to have messed up a couple of channel names. I fixed it in my source epg but its not changing in Sage. Does anyone know where Sage keep channel name info? Thanks!

It keeps it in Wiz.bin and there is no way of changing it apart from modifying the EPG update

Sage links the channel name to the StationID. At each EPG update, if the channel name changes, it will be updated in Sage.

In the XMLTV plugins, the StationID is an hash of the XMLTV channel ID.

So, assuming that the channel has the same ID in the XML source, the channel name will be updated in Sage the next time the EPG updates.

It maybe that the XMLTV channel ID has also changed, leading Sage thinking it is a different channel, so check your channel setup for new channels...

Thanks again Nielm! Sorry for the delayed response, got a bit busy. Yup that was it. I fudged the channel ID a bit and confused Sage. All is fixed now.
