If you are a programmer, you could write a script in a suitable programming language to perform any edits on the EPG file that you wanted. But the distinctive nature of this extra info is lost - "TV Server" will simply treat the added info as character strings. For example, you could append the cast list to the programme description. Of course, there is nothing to stop you massaging the EPG file that you obtain from Schedules Direct, so that ancillary information is placed in the parts of the file that "TV Server" stores. I have not used any of those, so this is merely speculation. That process might be MC2XML, or XMLTV, or some other tool that you are using. What might be occurring is that one of the processes that you are using is appending the programme title with a numeric value before passing that information to "TV Server". Possibly this is a facility of which I am ignorant because my EPG provider does not provide identifiable series and episode numbers. See the Format field on the "Custom paths and filenames" tab in the "Recording" section (same Wiki page as above).Īs far as I know, "TV Server" does not add series or episode numbers to the EPG programme titles, or to the programme descriptions. (2) Inclusion of the series and episode numbers as part of the file name of the recording. See the Episode key field on the "General" tab in the "Recording" section of "TV Server Config" ( this page in the Wiki). (1) Avoidance of recording the same episode twice. So are those weird numbers following the programme titles really series and episode numbers? They do not look believable to me.Īs far as I know, "TV Server" provides only two facilities relating to series and episode numbers: Having said that, I have never seen series or episode numbers in the EPG (my EPG provider does not provide them). As far as the EPG is concerned, MP1 and MP2 merely differ stylistically. However, MP1 and MP2 use the same "TV Server", so the data available is the same. Click to expand.Firstly, I use MP1 and have never used MP2.
