Is there a way to change to the new server (URL) on XCIPTV without losing your saved favorites?

Routinely changing a server address in TiviMate, and perhaps others, is not an issue with respect to favorites, but I had to look that up as I do not like XCIPTV, nor do I use it, but it seems that:

• Session & Cache Tying: XCIPTV binds the local SQLite database directly to the active login session. The server URL, username, and password act as a composite key that initializes the database structure on boot.
• Database Clearing on Disconnect: XCIPTV doesn't offer a direct "Edit Server URL" field within an active profile. To change the URL, you have to log out or clear app data, which triggers a complete wipe of the local cache—wiping out the favorites table along with it.
