Keeping the information up to date might be an issue. If you went with a static table, shipped with each version of MythTV then I forsee problems with channels changes and new channels. Imagine that a new channel is launched tommorrow but the next version of Myth isn't due for another few weeks or months. At least for those already using xmltv I think it might be an idea to fetch this information from the internet. The latest information could be added by a team of volunteers and would be quickly available. It could be cached locally in a table to avoid heavy strain on the hosting site. Myth could also ship with the latest information for those without a permanent net connection. -- Stuart Morgan _______________________________________________ mythtv-dev mailing list [email protected] http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-dev
