Good to know. Thanks. I'll double check my mceepg2xmltv code and also add the <unique-identifier> to my xmltv serialize.

As I said <unique-identifier> doesn't follow the xmltv dtd (it's not in there) although certainly it's vaild xml. I will work with the dd_progid. It's the one that has been around a while. If I asked you to change the code now, The Feature wouldn't be backward compatible (although I am done with 99.x for good...) So this means that it's a valid num, and should be considered a unique episode <episode-num system="dd_progid">EP00852472.0001</episode-num> and this would be a 'No Information available, nothing to make it unique' ep <episode-num system="dd_progid">SH00788602.0000</episode-num> Movies have a MV, Episodes have an EP, and don't know what is SH... Aside from the 0000, and the length of text, do you need anything else?

FYI: I've never seen an "SH" that didn't end with "0000"

When <episode-num> came along, that was supported too, and the original stuff left in so as not break any existing xmltv files that depended on this.
