[mythtv-users] mythfilldatabase from xml and reruns

[Johan Reinalda]

All,

I have written a perl grabber for a FTA (free to air) Dutch Satellite
station (bvn.nl), and am importing it into myth with mythfilldatabase.

All is well (ie the programs show fine), but reruns don't seem to be
recognized
correctly, or so it seems.
Here is the situation:

The channel has a programming block of 8 hours, repeated twice. Thus each
program has two reruns every day.

I have marked all three instances of the each program with the following
attributes. Eg:

<date>20050407</date>
<episode-num system="bvn_progid">BVN20050407.12</episode-num>
<episode-num system="xmltv_ns">5.99.0/1</episode-num>
<episode-num system="onscreen">Episode 99</episode-num>

The first episode-num is a self-defined, consisting of stationid (BVN),
followed by yyyymmdd, followed by the program count on that day (ie the
above is the 12th program for April 7)

The second episode-num is my interpretation of the xml.dtd spec. 5 is the
year (series id), 99 is the episode set as the day in this year, and all
programs are 0/1 for the part.

The third is a simple episode numbering again according to day in this year.


I run 'mythfilldatabase --file 1 -1 bvn.xml' and it always shows
Marking repeats...found 0


Any hints how to get this to be marked properly?

Many thanks in advance,

Johan
