No EPG Genre Info
#1
Hi,

currently i am using Frodo RC1 and the mythtv - cmyth addon from the fetzerch Git, fetched and compiled yesterday.

But, i can's see any genre info in the EPG data. I looked to the code and i added a debug message to the log which prints the genre variable to the log. And this variable is always 0.

If I use MythWeb to look to the TV-Program, Genre will be displayed correctly

Is this a bug or a limitation of the PVR addon? Earlier I used vdr as backend and the VNSI addon and with this combination genre Info was display correctly in XBMC.

I switched to MythTV because I want to use timeshift and this is currently much more supported by MythTV

If i go to EPG:Timeline different colours are shown, i assume it's based on the genre so must be storing it somewhere.

Yes, that's correct. I think this information is lost between MythTV an XBMC

On my XBMC every title is white on grey :-( which means genre unknown/undefined

What skin are you using... I was testing the 'Hybrid" skin last night, and on the EPG there were no colors specifying the Genre. When I switched back to Transparency! or Confluence, everything displayed correctly... so this could be a skin issue you are seeing.

Standard Confluence skin. If I go back to vdr/vnsi, everything looks ok
