[unstable] tv_grab_uk_rt programme/genre mapping not working from Sunday 13 April

Added by Rachel Greenham over 10 years ago

My EPG timeline in XBMC is going mostly grey from Sunday onwards!

Checking in tvheadend's web interface, I can see normal genre values for programmes up until midnight on Saturday, after that it seems only a very few programmes get a genre at all; most of those show as "News/Current affairs" and not all of those are right (and not all, or even many, news programmes are marked); and the few others with any value are also only rarely/coincidentally right.

So it's showing in the tvheadend web interface, so I don't think the xbmc/hts interface is where the fault is.

xmltv hasn't had an update recently. Making the best sense I can of the cached files in .xmltv/cache, it doesn't look like anything's changed there: The genre shown there is in the same column and seems to keep the same values for the same programmes before and after Sunday. (It's called XMLTV but I don't know where the XML is... :-})

So I'm wondering if there's been a recent change in unstable to do with genre-mapping that might have broken it for newly-added programmes. Which probably means something done and put to the unstable repo nearly two weeks ago...
