+1.0.0+kodimov.6: the programme guide refreshes on its own again on boxes first set up with kodimov.1, where the automatic guide export had stayed off (the guide ran out after 2 days).
 1.0.0+kodimov.5: TV guide setup writes the programme guide before creating the IPTV Simple settings, so the guide isn't empty on a new box.
 1.0.0+kodimov.4: first login on a new box needs no password from the Movistar home network: the account is found and the box registered automatically.
 1.0.0+kodimov.3: one-tap TV setup: "Create settings for IPTV Simple" also turns on Movistar channel numbers, daily list reload, and restarts IPTV Simple; fixes invalid XML in that file.
