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

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,
