SD JSON Premieres/Finales

[mvallevand]

SD JSON has a very handy field in the schedule JSON for those of us who like to try and catch brand new shows.

"isPremiereOrFinale": "Series Premiere"
"isPremiereOrFinale": "Season Premiere"
"isPremiereOrFinale": "Series Finale"
"isPremiereOrFinale": "Season Finale"

It would be nice if this could be added to npvr.db3 or if not feasible if the SD data could be retained so some program access could be available.

Bump. Sorry to be a pest but if NextPVR doesn't do it I guess I write my own JSON

Yes, I sure I can add this. For this one you'll probably need to bump the thread when I'm back in NZ though.

I meant to +1 this before... It would be neat to be able to automatically catch all series premiers. There are many times where I see ads for a new show and think "that might be interesting", but the premier is too far off to find in the EPG yet... then when it finally rolls around I've forgotten about it and miss the first few episodes.

The pseudo advanced rule that I will make is

Record all episodes
where premier is true
and first run is true
and local time is prime time
and channel group is some group that doesn't include diy, business or news, children sports etc

and NextPVR's unique id processing will help when I delete or turn any into recurring recordings.

Was this request ever completed?

I am also looking for a way to flag series premieres.
