UPDATE 1.0.85

26.12..2022


1) Fixed m3u parser to handle "catchup-time" tag correctly. In some cases, this error led to the impossibility of parsing m3u playlists, displaying a log error about a data type mismatch

2) Fixed a small annoying inaccuracy in the EPG parser. Now the import of event events is much faster due to the exclusion of channel events that are not in the m3u playlist you use.

3) Support for "gzip, deflate" HTTP compression has been added to the EPG importer, which in some cases can significantly reduce the amount of data received, and therefore speed up the download of the necessary files

UPDATE 1.0.86

02.01..2023

Fixed the "dimension" of the value of the dvb_event_id parameter when adding epg.db entries in DreamOS . Descriptions of future events will now be displayed in the "EPG Selection" skin on any DreamOS images.

UPDATE 1.0.88

23.02..2023

1) The range of unicode characters filtered in the names of groups, channels, and descriptions has been expanded ... Many E2 images simply do not display all sorts of "hearts", "tambourines", "diamonds" and other "garbage". Therefore, "filtering" all

2) Optimized the check "whether the picons have changed on the provider server" ... now it works a little faster ...

3) Removed the output in the message log when redefining the player

4) Slightly optimized the m3u parser code and ***-sort-override so that there are fewer string conversions from str to unicode and vice versa .. now, regardless of the python version, we always get "str" when parsing and work with this data type

5) A little speeded up the EPG parser .... but it gives a speed increase only on python 3.11-based E2 Images ... on the rest, it will remain as it was

UPDATE 1.0.89

15.03..2023

1) Fixed spontaneous freezes and interrupting the event import when importing EPG for some users

2) Fixed display of specified values in the provider card when changing player parameters (exteplayer3, gstplayer)

3) Thoroughly rewritten EPGImport code. More aggressive RAM saving. The code is maximally asynchronous. Added more logging of any non-standard situations and current actions.

p.s. This version of the code for EPGImport will become the basis and will be transferred to my EPGImport plugin mod for any E2 images

UPDATE 1.0.90

11.04..2023

1) Fixed all the shortcomings, errors, and inaccuracies known at the time of publication of this version, which was published by users on various forums and in personal correspondence with me
2) Completely redesigned plugin GUI. All settings are now available in the "Configuration" menu. The "Configuration" menu has been significantly improved and provides various options for "fine" tuning the plugin to suit your desires
3) Algorithm of "serviceref" formation has been changed to meet the wishes of users when using "***-sort-override" templates ... I strongly recommend that you delete the picons created by this plugin and the epg.dat file before installing this version
4) This version is "Donationware" ... The basic functionality of the plugin, starting from this version, is limited to the ability to use the plugin with one provider and create bouquets containing no more than 300 channels. Everyone who has made a donation (ever) to the development will receive a key file that removes any restrictions

UPDATE 1.0.92

22.04..2023

1) Fixed file selection for OpenATV 7.0
2) The menu in the provider card has been reorganized. Added all locale translations
3) Removed plugin dependency on OpenWebIf plugin and creation of configuration files for CrossEPG and EPGImport. The plugin can work with EPG by itself much better than the listed plugins and does not require additional "crutches" ... Moreover, the rejection of support for CrossEPG configuration files allows us to work with https directly and avoid unnecessary additional EPG downloads using the https scheme.
4) Removing the dependency on OpenWebIf allows the plugin to be used on very ancient receivers (such as GI S8120, U2C S+mini, GI HD Slim 2+, etc.) with very early (or very "custom") versions of E2 images, in which there is simply no OpenWebIf.
5) Removed obligatory dependency on PIL (Python Imaging Library) ... Now if you don't have it in your image, you can still download channel piсons.
6) For users using ***-sort-override.xml templates, when new channels appear in the provider's broadcasting grid, in addition to diff-override, a bouquet will be created with "new" channels for channels that are not in the template ... This bouquet will be created until the user moves new channels from diff-override to the right place in the sort-override template
7) The ability to override tvg-id has been added to the sort-override template ... To do this, you need to set the channel id value you need in tvgidOverride , similar to nameOverride or reftypeOverride
8) A few other code optimizations... and the removal of previously used python dependencies

UPDATE 26.05..2022

1.0.95.


1) Fixed initialization of template file ***-sort-override (in its very first creation from scratch)

2) Fixed import of EPG events and picons for ***-sort-override users in 'All-in-one' mode for 'New broadcasts'

3) Reorganized bouquet refresh mode. Now the refresh occurs after the generation of bouquets for each of the providers, and not once for all as in previous versions

4) Added handling of HTTP errors 520, 526, etc. arising from providers working through CloudFlare

5) Completely eliminated the ability to start importing playlists until all previous tasks have been completed

6) Fixed crash on DreamOS-based images Merlin, Gemini, etc. due to the impossibility of saving settings when reloading (rebooting) the image

7) Small changes in the log output
