Maybe it's time for a generic plugin interface that allows to filter incoming EPG data, channel scan data, transponder data and so on, that allows to do some modifications on-the-fly. This would also allow to fix broken transponders by use of a plugin instead of adding workarounds to VDR. I like big solutions which will never be realized. VDR is *full* of them! Such as "sortable menus" realized as MAINMENUHOOKS-patch, but considered as evildoing, such as the NOEPG-patch, such as... , such as... ;) Regards Jochen ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr

Today i cannot add 14 days of external epg without patching. Why would you have to patch VDR for that? External event's by default have a "table id" if 0, which means they will never be overwritten by data from the transponder.

You will get duplicate EPG entries if the time doesn't match ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
