ZapImport - ???

[rheslip]

I installed Spartan's tweeked database files and now it works. I like it !

I thought the extra info would include categories like movies, sports etc - is this in the Zap2it data ? I'd like to be able to quickly scan all the upcoming movies but I haven't found a good way to do that yet.

Yeah there is a genere table in the db. After installing the db and running it at least one. Hit the yellow button a few times to get to the genere.

I figured out the yellow button.

I see there are four broad categories in the Zap2it program ID field:
First two digits are alphanumeric and correspond to movies (MV), shows (SH),
episodes (EP) and sports (SP).

Is it possible to search based on this ? What I really want to see is what movies are coming up for example.

currently not yet. Just based on the generes at this time.

Jorm, is there anyway to back populate this data to the TVGuide with colors? ie.) All sports shows would have a blue background, all movies would be green?

Just wondering,

Next thing to do in Guide2J

[jorm]

Yeah it should be these are the unique ids. So the current api should support that.

As jrock renders the tv guide he would get the unique ids and check them if not matched just leave it as black color. Otherwise adjust it. That would be a cool feature.
