Brad - this is a great development for MythTV. Thanks very much for doing it.
I've installed it and modified some of the list files and run tvwish
with v=3. I've put a line in topseries.txt of "Very Little Britain"
and also tried it in suggest as "Suggest-Title: Very Little Britain".
I can't get it to set it up as a recording, however, because I noticed
that the query string requires it to be category_type='series' or 1st
episode number or a pilot.
What I'm trying to do is tell it to record a program called Very
Little Britain whenever it sees it on TV. I don't care whether it's a
pilot episode or not. I noticed that in my program table category_type
and syndicatedepisodenumber and subtitle are all null. So how should I
set up the rules to do this? Or am I trying to do something it's not
designed for.
PS - I'm in Australia so my EPG data doesn't come from zap2it or
anything like that. It's generated from a web site scrape.
Regards,
Phill
