Channel Icon does not update

[rajil]

Hello,
My channel lineup changed and some icons/logos were updated. Mythfrontend/mythweb are showing the updated icon however kodi still shows the old icon. I have tried PVR & Live TV >General>Clear Data but it did not help. I also deleted the ~/.kodi/userdata/addon_data/pvr.mythtv/cache folder but the icon did not update.

How can I refresh the icons from mythtv backend and delete the cached ones?

MythTV version:0.31
Kodi: 18.8.0
MythTV addon: 5.10.16

Thanks

I did a bit more digging and found that the icons are cached in ~/.kodi/userdata/Thumbnails/

I dont want to delete the Thumbnails folder as it will affect the other addons. Is it possible to identify the channel icons in this folder?

The channel icons are cached by kodi itself. I don't know if you can clear the image cache of kodi without cleanup something you won't.

I found the easiest workaround to get channel icons to update is to just delete the Textures database file (in userdata/Database). Kodi will have to re-cache its thumbnails but your channel icons will update.
