[mythtv] Feature Request: Store program detail information after tv listings for shows have beeen cleared

[Jason Cohen]

Datadirect provides a great deal of information for each show and this 
info is accessible from mythtv in the program details page for both 
upcoming shows and recorded shows within the last day or two (when tv 
listing data exists). However, after old tv listing data is purged and 
replaced most of this information is lost making it diffuclt to view 
shows in the order they were aired.

Program Details page from upmcoming or recent recording:
Title
Description
Category
Type
*Episode No.*
Program ID
Actors
Directors
Guest Star
Recording Host
Filesize
Recording Group
Program Details page from an old recording (once tv listings have been 
purged)
al
Title
Description
Category
Type
Program ID
Recording Host
Filesize
Recording Group

It would be very nice to be able to see the Episode # for old shows 
especially if you allow mythtv to reschedule programs to prevent 
conflicts. Often programs will be recorded out of order, and without 
this information it's quite diffiult to watch shows in the proper order. 
The Actor, Director, and Guest Star info would also be nice but 
certainly not as important.

Thanks,
Jason Cohen
