[vdr] ATSC missing program discription on some channels

2010-09-03 Thread Timothy D. Lenz
Using the ATSC epg plugin I get all program names, but some channels just say no information. But if you check the same channels with a converter box, they do have program information. I was told there is a flag that is checked. If the flag is not set by the broadcaster, the program info is not

[vdr] Sort recordings by content descriptor

2010-09-03 Thread J.W.
Hi, since vdr-1.7.11 the content descriptor tag in the epg meta data is supported. It would be a nice feature to be able to sort the recordings by this content descriptor in the recordings menu. Because not all TV stations are sending sensible content descriptors, these should be editable. This wo
