Under Automation in MTM are two more things for you to set. The first is the equivalent of the Update Station List button. Turning this on will run a process at the time and frequency you set to update the station list, thus giving you an automated way to handle changes and get new selections in the Unassigned Stations section.

If you are a user who needs to update this more often, you can also run a separate process to update m3u Playlists in Channels DVR on a more frequent basis than once per day:

When stations are updated, there are notices that are also made available in the Notifications pane in the Home area. You will get info on "Added", "Removed", and "Modified" stations, the latter meaning there has been a change in at least one field of provided data.

In the same vein, you can also turn on the process to update the m3u and EPG files at regular intervals.

As with updating the station list, this one allows you to make a selection to how frequently you want the action to happen based upon a starting time. For instance, if we leave the time at 02:01 PM and select Every 6 hours, it will run at 02:01 PM, 08:01 PM, 02:01 AM, and 08:01 AM.

Similar to the previous automation, this one will also give you notifications. In all cases, there is additional detail available in the Logs area.

With these in place and set, the process will take care of itself and you should be good to go!
