[mythtv-users] updated mythlink.sh

[Joel Melohn]

Edward and none,

Thanks for your work on mythlink.sh. It makes viewing recorded programs on
Windows XP much more usable.

I make a minor enhancement to the mythlink.sh script that replaces the ";"
with " -" which makes the subtitles more readable. For example, from one of
my wife's recordings, the subtitle:

Silver Beads; Ceramist; Stamping Products

without this patch becomes:

Silver_Beads__Ceramist__Stamping_Products

with the new patch, it becomes:

Silver_Beads_-_Ceramist_-_Stamping_Products

which I think is more readable.


The patch adds the single line:

$nfn =~ s/;/ -/g;

as follows:

@@ -26,6 +26,7 @@
                 my $nfn = "${subtitle}";
                 $nfn =~ s/ /_/g;
                 $nfn =~ s/&/+/g;
+                $nfn =~ s/;/ -/g;
                 $nfn =~ s/[^+0-9a-zA-Z_-]+/_/g;
 		my $nfn_orig = $nfn;
 		my $file_conflict = 1;
