Comment(by mythtv at longhome.co.uk):
Stuart,
The series link stuff seems to be working really well. Not so much for the
monkies at BBC though:
title subtitle programid
Kill It, Cook It, Eat It Beef fp.bbc.co.uk/35W3TE
Kill It, Cook It, Eat It Lamb fp.bbc.co.uk/35W3TG
Kill It, Cook It, Eat It Lamb fp.bbc.co.uk/35W3TF
Kill It, Cook It, Eat It Lamb fp.bbc.co.uk/35W3TF
As it turns out both of the first 2 were beef, so I don't understand why
they got seperate IDs - and the second was incorrectly labeled 'lamb'
Tonight's episode has been called 'pork', but it's I'd is 35W3TG, so it
wasn't going to record, maybe it will be a repeat of beef, or even lamb, I
don't know yet, but it seems they've totally screwed this one up. They
don't appear to have a seriesID at all.
I had thought, although I don't know if this will still work, that
seriesid and programid could be used together to detect parts of the same
program (eg a film seperated by the news) as well as the usual duplicate
matching. I think where only programid matches, it's a duplicate, but
where both match, it's a continuation. My fear is that this doesn't fit
the model used by other regions, in which case, might a new column be
required: 'showingid' maybe, where the EIT series identifier would fit.
