The genres in the screenshot are ... Movie / Drama PS ... I see that Killing Eve and Fleabag are showing on the ABC Comedy Kids channel ... It's good to see that efforts to drive out all traces of wimpishness start in childhood ... (I am guessing that this is really two channels sharing a frequency) (2020-05-07, 11:33 AM)Graham Wrote:(2020-05-07, 10:22 AM)jordy1955 Wrote: I have "Genre Colors" turned on but am not seeing it in the guide.

V4 used to show them fine and they were configurable too, but not v5  re: ABC Comedy Kids - One channel, just depends on the time of day as to what is broadcast I think (don't watch it)  Not sure about the whimpishness stuff tho, ABC is def pro left (which is very sad for a taxpayer funded enterprise), if they moved any further that way, they would probably fall off the planet

They are configurable but right now your genres likely do not match the default configuration mapping to OTA codes that NextPVR and Kodi uses.
If you can make your npvr.db3 file available on cloud storage I can explain the next steps.

Yes the main problem is similar to the problem I hoped sub could address last time around, many of the shows are in the master category for you that that is Movies and Series for Me that is Movies and Drama. If sub could address that the colours would look a lot better.
Adding these to the program/data/genres-mapping.xml file should get colours working for you, but you need to get EPG Collector to fix up their typo. Code: <genre name="Series" type="48" subtype="0"/>You can get colours working in Emby too if you do the manual mapping in the plugin. Martin

The current entries are listed in order of "type/subtype", does this ordering need to be maintained? Also the category "Movies" is used in TVGuide.xml. The EPGC EITCategory.cfg file correctly uses "Movie" so I have msg'd the EPGC Forum for clarification on that and the spelling correctiion. thanks jordy

It is more the work Childeren that they should fix.
I would put that am the bottom. While these are based on DVB spec they are custom. Martin

"program/data/genres-mapping.xml" equals ... "C:\Program Files\NextPVR\data\genres-mapping.xml" ...
