[QUOTE="Vasilich, post: 988274, member: 97516"] the small issue that bugged me already long time: at least here in Germany there are almost all channels transmit DVB EPG short descriptions, and as addition - extended description. TsWriter detects those perfectly, but glues them together, so as it can be seen on attachments ShortLong* (look for the absense of spaces between first words of descriptions) [ATTACH]127082[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]127083[/ATTACH]. What i did is just added carriage return between short and ext descriptions. Result can be seen on attachments Short_Long*[ATTACH]127084[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]127085[/ATTACH]. As @[URL='https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/members/mm1352000.82144/']mm1352000[/URL] said, the best way would be to add new filed in DB and split short and ext descriptions so that skin can show those in any form. But this means much more work (upgrading DB schema, changing TsWriter interfaces to be able to deliver extra information, etc.) So i decided first to go simple way. Please test it and tell what do you think about it. Attached TsWriter has patched Git master code at 25.04.2013. [/QUOTE]
