Extended info, actors and such...

[erikl]

Well, i am very pleased with gbpvr, and now when it works like a charm i been thinking of ways to really spice it up a bit, hence the little wishlist below:

1. the xml-app i use, o2grabber can save extended info about actors abd a lot of stuff, see code-snippet:

<programme start="20050812230000 +0200" stop="20050813010000 +0200" channel="26.dagenstv.com">
<title lang="sv">Fire down below</title>
<desc lang="sv">Amerikanskt actiondrama från 1997. Det amerikanska miljödepartementet får ett tips om att någon dumpar giftigt avfall. Gifterna kan vara orsaken till byns hälsoproblem och man sänder genast dit en agent för att utreda fallet. När han och två FBI-agenter snart hittas mördade i området sänder man dit det tyngsta artilleriet, i form av specialagenten Jack Taggert för att finna mördarna och stoppa de som dumpar avfallet. </desc>

<category>Action</category>
</programme>

There you see al ot of info (though Actor-info is missing... drat!) anyway....veeery cool IMHO.. But, is there a way to search for that extended info? Perhaps in enhanched webadmin or?

Also, as a bonus o2grabber can give you an extra xml-file with categories, codesnippet below:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
<Categories>
<Date Value="20050812">
<Program Name="Best of friends" Category="Actionfilm" />
<Program Name="Flood: A river's rampage" Category="Actionfilm" />

Would be cool to search for special categories, right?

2. Reruns... we either love recording them, or hate it.. Anyway, in the epgxml described above it is often clearly stated that chosen programme is a rerun, or "Repris" in swedish...
My thought here, is it possible to do a filter or similar where you can choose whether you lie to display the reruns or not?

Well, thats it from me!

Cheers!

/edit/ Stupid me, it would help if i looked in a new, fresh xml-file as well, ah well... Changed the code a bit /edit

Sorry, no I wont be adding support for this information. Its rarely supplied in XMLTV, and when it is, it's used inconsistantly between XMLTV grabbers.

Well, that's fully understandable, but perhaps some loony plugin-programmer could do the trick.. :-)


Ahwell, time to go to bed
