Alternate WebEPG template for IMDB grabber (1 Viewer)

[nopunin10did]

I have put together an alternate version of the TemplateText for the IMDB grabber, based on the current behavior of the site.
I seemed to be having issues with grabbing episode titles originally, so I used the "z" tag to set an optional section.

Human-readable template (uses tags TBA):
<tr><td>
<a><#START></a>
</td>
<td>
<b><a><#TITLE></a></b>
<z(> - <i>
<a><#SUBTITLE></a>
</i></z)?>
: <#DESCRIPTION></td>
</tr>

XML Version:
<Template name="default" start="single_station_container">
<SectionTemplate tags="TBA">
<TemplateText>
&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;
&lt;a&gt;&lt;#START&gt;&lt;/a&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;a&gt;&lt;#TITLE&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/b&gt;
&lt;z(&gt; - &lt;i&gt;
&lt;a&gt;&lt;#SUBTITLE&gt;&lt;/a&gt;
&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/z)?&gt;
: &lt;#DESCRIPTION&gt;&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;/tr&gt;
</TemplateText>
</SectionTemplate>
</Template>

Welcome, and great first post!

Would you mind if I moved your post over to here?
https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/forums/submit-epg-grabbers-and-tuningdetails.296/

That way we'll remember to pick it up for the next release.

Thanks for looking into this. probably the best place for this message is in the WebEPG forum. For a new user finding the correct forum can be a bit confusing. see link https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/forums/webepg.136/

Curious what was having problems but I have not used WebEPG/imdb for quite a while, maybe create a new message in that forum, upload your complete imdb.xml update in that message with just 1 or 2 example channels. That way people can test what you are proposing.
