[mythtv] Modification Request for mythfilldatabase --manual

Dear All,


It seems that mythfilldatabase is taking only one category in
consideration when filling the DB from an XML file. If I my info is
correct the XMTV specifications are allowing multiple categories.

How did I notice this problem? I use jxmltv (a grabber for Belgium) and
I import this file to Mythtv. This grabber converts "Movie - Comedy" to;
<category>
Movie
</category>
<category> 
Comedy
</category>

This is imported to mythtv as movie and the notion "comedy" is lost
which is very annoying. I already had a discussion with the jxmltv
developer whichyou can follow on
http://jxmltv.virtuaboard.com/JXMLTV-Forum-f1/Grabing-category-problem-w
ith-Mythtv-t30.htm

So, or myhtv should be changed to support multiple categories or the
XMLTV specifications should be changed to allow only one category.

What do you think?


Greetings

Matthieu
