file naming (renaming) strategy / recordings (movie)

[kfmf]

Hi
There is the xml file. I hope it helps to fix the issue.

Thanks!

You need to zip any attachements.

If they're really big, you may need to put them on an external file sharing service, like onedrive / googledrive.

He PM'd me and I can provide it to you sub, but there is only duration unless the script is changed to include the unique_id and Movie genre.

The mapping to OTA codes doesn't help us much either.

Code:

<programme start="20230522001500 +0000" stop="20230522032500 +0000" channel="83802">
    <icon src="https://ondemo.tmsimg.com/assets/p378_v_h10_aj.jpg?w=1920&amp;h=1080"></icon>

Yeah, there is nothing in there to clearly identify it's a movie.

Looking at the python if you edit epg.py and instert this at line 346

Code:

                            tmsId = broadcast_id.split('_')[0]
                            if tmsId != None:
                                program["episode-num"] = {"@system": "dd_progid", "#text": tmsId}
                                if tmsId.startswith('MV'):
                                    program['category'] = 'Movie'

NextPVR would be able to name them Movie Name(Year).ts

You could send me the PM to the database and xmltv file again after running a new EPG update and I can confirm that it works. I could append Movie to the categories too if that is important

Sounds great Martin!
What should I do in detail?
This is the script I use for my EPG. (It runs on the same server as Nextpvr.
https://github.com/sunsettrack4/script.s...syepg-lite

Would great to hear of you!
Thanks

[mvallevand]

You can edit script.service.easyepg-lite-main/resources/lib/epg.py and add those lines or backup the file and use the attached and restart the EPG server.

If it works, I can submit it as a PR and the author can think of something more elaborate.

Martin

[kfmf]

Great - I will do so and give you a ping afterwards.

Thank you!!!

Hi

The setup is done, and the files are out to Martin.

Thank you and looking forward to hearing of you.

The XMLTV file is good and the database is using the new UniqueID so the code appeared to work, which is positive because I couldn't run the code. You don't have a movie scheduled until the 26th though but it has the correct values too. Depending on your settings it will be saved as

Code:

"The Last Witch Hunter(2015).ts"
or
"The.Last.Witch.Hunter(2015).ts"

First, you will need to go to Settings->General and tick Use "Movie.Name.(YEAR) format for movies if possible" For purity I would also untick "Replace spaces with period character" I think they look better without them, but it might make command line processing simpler.

You might want to try a movie today to confirm. You should note you have some mjh sourced XMLTV and PlutoTV will work because it has a Movie genre but the Samsung FAST channel does not.

Here is the raw data seems good to me, sub might offer some tweaks.
