schedule series by keyword ? (1 Viewer)

[johandm_be]

Hi,

Is it possible to create a series recording based on a keyword ? I know that there is a "search by keyword" function and from what that search found you can create a series, but that is not exactly what I was looking for:

For example, when I create a series recording "earth investigated", then I would like it to automatically record:

"Earth Investigated: SuperVolcanos"
"Earth Investigated: Asteroid Attack"
"Earth Investigated: Bermuda Triangle"

etc.

The key factor here is that at the time that I create the series, I do not know every episode's full title, I just know that they will have a common part in the title.

Another situation where this is also very helpfull as some shows sometimes change the title slightly when it is the finals. For example:

(from VTM)

Idool 2007
Idool 2007 : de finale

etc.


I am new to Media Portal / TVengine (I am just setting this up for the first time) but I have been using SageTV for years. The last example I gave I learned the hard way


I don't think this feature is available in MP. Does anybody know how to do this ? (Maybe with a plugin?)

Thanks,
Johan.

Hi and welcome johandm_be,

currently that is not possible with MP. But one dev (bavarian) is working on a plugin to be able to such (and many more) things like you have in mind:

Just be patient, I hope it won't take too long until we get something to test.
