    It looks to me as though that data is grabbed directly from the EPG provider. MP cannot know where to add spaces that have been left out by the person who entered the EPG data.

    I'm inclined to say this is not a bug, but prefer to wait for someone to confirm.

    First question:

    Is it only the recordings or also the normal EPG?

    Second question (most important if first answer is also for normal EPG):
    What source do you get your EPG from?

    xml file contains what is in EPG so
    Code:
    [COLOR=#0000ff]<[/COLOR][COLOR=#990000]value[/COLOR][COLOR=#0000ff]>[/COLOR][B]Dokumentation Deutschland 2005In der Mitte des 16. Jahrhunderts ist der prächtige Sultanspalast von Istanbul - der Topkapi Serail - das Zentrum des mächtigsten Reiches der Erde....[/B][COLOR=#0000ff]</[/COLOR][COLOR=#990000]value[/COLOR][COLOR=#0000ff]>[/COLOR]
    is what you see in MP. This is an issue with your EPG data not MP. Marking as no-bug

    How do you know? Let him answer first please.
    OK a little hasty... putting back as confirm but I did look at this once before when I had EPG issues and I am sure DVB and xmlTV just load descriptions as provided. Only potential I can see for issue in MP is WebEPG grabber this would most likely occur every time and not just sometimes

    Also in the normal EPG, but only ARTE and ARTEHD

    Second question (most important if first answer is also for normal EPG):
    What source do you get your EPG from?

    DVB/S

    Best regards and Thanks

    If it is only 1 channel (i count the normal and hd as one) the chances are very small (0.01%) this is a MP bug.

    The only thing i see that will reveal for sure if it is a bug, is analyzing a raw ts dump (with dvbstreamexplorer for instance).
