[QUOTE="jjagged, post: 81573, member: 21264"] Hello Here in Sweden we have an annoying tv channel that sometimes splits its programs in two, showing 20 minutes of news and ads inbetween. Since the news is listed as a program itself, XMLTV will interpret the two parts as different programs. This results in two files in the recordings list: "Show" and "Show (continued)". This is not nice. I also have to remember to set both parts to record. Is there any plugin that can automatically join recordings based on their name, for instance? I wouldn't think so, but I want to check. If there is none I would like to try to write such a plugin, to get familiar with the inner workings of MP, and to learn C# better. But I have no idea of where to begin. Is it even possible to accomplish this with a plugin? I've got the MP source code, but as with any large project it quite a lot to browse through... [/QUOTE]
