I guess you're talking about the contents of 'channel'. That wasn't a big change. 'channel' is a "unique" id that refers to the appropriate channel, and it always was. The change made it more unique among grabbers. It was never really meant to be used for display purposes. That's what channel['display-name'] is for. Of course, I abused the old content format from tv_grab_na in much the same way as you guys did. :-) It didn't take long to fix in my ZODB/IndexedCatalog code and it gave me the push to make some improvements at the same time. Wait until XMLTV 0.6 is released. That will include some major structural changes in both programme and channel. > Not so much > for me, but for the people who aren't familiar with the internals and > end up with a complete mess when they update their listings. Well, that's because you're not dynamically loading channels from the XMLTV file. I've found that the channel list changes fairly often for my provider. > And, because there is absolutely no mapping between the old channels > and the new, it's quite difficult to write a converter. The format of channel['display-name'] didn't change, not in tv_grab_na at least, and it will not change over the lifetime of 0.5.x. - -- James Oakley [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2-rc1-SuSE (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE/CjkQKtn0F7+/lLMRAu06AKCf4akAk1Y9mnJRp21h43yf0obdwQCfXAxs afzmk2WjYMyStveAhNGcbFg= =aXIN -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email sponsored by: Free pre-built ASP.NET sites including Data Reports, E-commerce, Portals, and Forums are available now.
