This is how my EPG look

watch gallery

I add in data base EPG
-OrigName (Original name of movies or episode for non english user)
-Actor
-Director
-Writer
-IconEPG
-Year

All of This infos I have in EPG.xml (downloaded with webgrab.exe),I also integrate script.metadata.actors in DialogPVRGuideInfo.xml.
Plan to intergrate more scripts for movies and episode,to show more info about EPG label.

Why IMO has minor priority for Kodi stuff !!!

Jönke · 2014-08-12, 23:07

Nice ! Yes , please add season / episode info

Angelinas · 2014-08-12, 23:22

Do not close the pull request. Maybe it was lost in translation but I am pretty sure that you misundertood him. He was not negative with his comment, and they did not reject your pull request. They just meant that they have to delay the merging of it until after the current feature freeze is lifted.

http://kodi.tv/kodi-14-0-code-name-helix...re-freeze/

You have to understand that Kodi version 14.0 (Helix) is in a feature freeze stage right now in its development life cycle, and that feature freeze is only ongoing right now, and that means that currently only bug fixes are accepted to be merged right now. So they can not currently merge any code that changes or adds a feature or functions that require an API version bump. But they can add it later after the current feature freeze is over.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freeze_(sof...gineering)

Feature freeze is just standard practice for all software development process as part of an application's release lifecycle. And you just have to be patient and wait until the feature freeze is lifted which it will when Kodi version 14.0 (Helix) is released.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_re...life_cycle

Again, no one was negative here. You just misunderstood the reason for the delay. Maybe because of the languge barrier. All it was is the timing, and you can still work on your code to improve it while you wait for the feature freeze to finish.

Also checkout there posts about previous release cycle with code freezes

http://kodi.tv/tag/release-cycle/

Be patient and happy coding, thanks and wish you the best for this work!

...............................................

Thanks for translation Smile

I am no angry,just disappointed becouse (general all) improvements for PVR need too much time.....(my pull request is send in May 2014 for Gotham)
I will try to implement new concept for EPG (old will be same).I try to add new db ,who will take "title" and/or "subtitle" from old EPG.db and script for libary scrape from .MDB and make readable links for all title in old EPG*.db with new sorces (Poster,writer,actor,director,year,episodename,episodeID.....) same like video,tvshow music- libary.
This new db will be independent ,doesent dipendent of PVR sources.Old Scripts like" the movie database" need to add tv for scrapping Smile

Afther that I will have PVR with EPG in full.

Thanks again

This tema call as PVR Development,one question for team-Kodi !
I read this http://kodi.wiki/view/Forum_rules ,but did'nt find answer for my question (may I or not)

May I , put my direct link to download my modified versions Kodi 15 alpha. (only * .exe file)
In Kodi I rewrote part of PVR,-EPG the rest is yours. (Compile for windows 17/01/2015)

Change the folder XBMC / epg (some files) , guiinfomanager.h and guiinfomanager.cpp.
With these changes I adapted addon simpleiptv (Afedecin version 15.0.1) to retrieve data from epg.xml
I just want to show you and rest of Kodi fan that Kodi PVR have more "Info Power" Smile

EPG8.db with new tags
-Actor
-Director
-Writer
-OriginalTitle
-ShowID
-YearEPG
-IconPath (just change gui to show this in every window,not only in DialogPVRGuideInfo.xml)
-EpisodeName (just change gui to show this in every window)

If somebody want to create pull request from team-Kodi I will send you my files to change personal git and create pull request.
I was testing this more then 3 month,import epg for Kodi pvr is teany slower with new improvements,but what I see for info is magnificant.
Thak you for your time

@Angelinas, have you tried re-opening pull request #4824 now? https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/pull/4824

It might be worth doing so now as Kodi 14 Helix is out, which should mean an end this feature freeze.

I would suggesting re-opening and bumping pull request #4824 or creating a new pull request now.

Jönke · 2015-01-21, 16:54

Yes please do !
