[mythtv-users] TVRage Importer 0.7

[Steven Adeff]

Some big changes! Plus a fix for the show name and start time changes.

I just want to thank all those that sent in a fix for the show name
issue, and to Bert who also sent in a MythVideo feature. Matt ended up
sending me a great patch that got MythVideo import working in a very
fluid manner. I was then able to make some enhancements on top of that
such that it should work in a lot more environments and with some nice
default actions.

I've tested this a bit and everything should work well, if not, please
reply to this thread if you encounter any issues. As always, fixes and
feature requests will most definitely be looked at and appreciated!
(even if I don't get to them in such a timely manner, sorry!!)

 v0.7
       (Thanks to Matthew Rushton for initial work on all the 0.7 stuff)
       - Enhancements
         -mythvideo add to mythvideo rather than recordings
         -coverfile adds in a cover file when used with -mythvideo
               if no cover file is given it will search for the input file name
               with .jpg or gif ammended, or cover.jpg or cover.gif in the same
               folder as the input file.
         -url takes the url from tvrage to get episode details.
         -shownum used with epnum to set the shownumber from
tvrage.com for shownumber
         -epnum   used with shownum to set the episode number from
tvrage.com for episode number
         -year set a hint for the year for searching tvrage.com
       - Fix for episode parsing for <Title> S\d\dE\d\d <Episode Name>
where episode name starts with S
       - Fix for two part episodes in one file i.e. S01E01E02.
       - Update showname parsing which changed on tvrage
       - Better file checking. Will obtain full path when needed from
current working
          folder or from path given by user.
