PLEX: Please properly flush database when rescanning or deleting/adding tuners

Twice now, I’ve had a local ATSC station do upgrades and change Tx frequency. Recanning or dropping and re-adding tuner does not update the channel info. Previously, I spent many hours fighting this and finally resorted to the rather drastic fix suggested by @eric_11 in post V4l failing to create compound device. See my post HELP! — Can’t tune local OTA channel 2 ATSC for more info about the last time I fought with this.

Today, I discovered (at least it sure seems) that a simple Optimize Database flushes the old channel data so the new data takes effect. Could Plex please take a look at this? The database should be properly flushed/updated as part of the rescan process or deleting tuners. It could save others from a lot of wasted time and frustration. Attn: @BigWheel

Thanks!
