Comment (by torbjorn.jansson@…):

 modified patch attached as discussed on irc.
 changes from last version is that ELFHash() is moved to
 libs/libmythbase/mythbaseutil.h and mythfilldatabase is adjusted to use
 the common version.

 since i didn't know what the outcome of the discussion around the
 "translation" was i've created one version with the conversion of the
 categories and one without.

 personally i prefer the version with the conversion of the categories so
 the categories at least are in the same language across all channels even
 if that means risking getting categories in one language and the rest of
 the guide data in another (english vs swedish)

 i would have preferred to convert the categories into exactly what the dvb
 content descriptor uses but this is not easily doable especially since the
 compact form of description that starts with comma separated fields
 contains multiple categories (less variations and better quality)
 for the time being it is as good as i can make it.

 the fixup could also try a bit harder to extract more subtitles but this
 would have a higher risk of accidentally picking the first sentence of the
 description so i chose not to do that.
