Description

Feature 2270 implemented user specified parsing of the event description field in opentv EPG data, searching for unique strings that indicate the location of season and episode numbers.
It would be great if a similar parsing mechanism was available for EIT based titles. For example, Canal Digitaal stores a string
(s 3/afl 4)
to indicate Season 3.Episode 4.
If we could create a file with patterns in epggrab/eit/dict or so, and the eit parser could use it, that would be very helpful.

XMLTV does not help us out much, the networks seem to strip the season/episode info before sending it to tvgids.nl, tvgids.tv and others...
See also Feature 508 and 766 for a sample from Poland.
