<br> in program descriptions

mba · 2007-08-12, 00:16

Hi

I'm having some issues with funny codes in my epg listings, where <br> is scattered all over the program data such as in the description field.
Anybody knows how to solve this?

Kind regards
Martin

I get the same issue too, since i changed grabbers.
I think WebEPG is handling everything correctly and replacing certain codes with their equivalent, but mp doesn't change them back when displaying them.

EG, < is the > character, > is < and & is &

So Law & Order becomes Law & Order

I'm using the danish grabber TVGG which creates a tvguide.xml just as xmltv does. I have recently switched from old to the new tv engine. There wasn't these problems with the old one, so I gather it has to do with the new xmltv importer?

regards
