[QUOTE="foxbenw, post: 843667, member: 115475"] I think this is going to be great. Thanks! 1 Using the new one, I get a load of repeats using skip = true and criteria = name. I just ran one wish, for American Dad. name = "Jack's back" is an example repeat. Log attached. I couldn't tell if it was caused by the new logic because description, name and number are all identical. But you also added the new field for the future functionality in preferred groups so I can't tell what is causing it. 2 New layout I see you have removed the defaults. I don't think that removes any functionality. I think it is quite intuitive. In MP plugin, initially i was a bit confused. A suggestion: title of menu = "Change episode matching criteria" (and if possible do not show the ": currentvalue" in the previous screen because it can't list all of the options you have selected in one line) Then in the menu: Skip matching Episode Name? (Yes)/Skip matching Episode Name? (No) Skip matching Series and Episode Number? (Yes)/Skip matching Series and Episode Number? (No) Skip matching EPG descriptions? (Yes)/Skip matching EPG descriptions? (No) //then a blank row Turn on all criteria Turn off all criteria ps I don't know where the EPG repeater marker is used because we haven't talked about it. I don't use it because I don't have them in my EPG, but happy to discuss it if you want to. 3 The new logic I have one issue with the logic which is caused by epg data. The season 10 finale of Smallville is split into two parts, with the same episode and series numbers, but different names ("finale (part 1)" and "finale (part 2)"). Using the new OR criteria with name+number skips the second part of the show. I have no idea if this is common. It makes me wonder if just name and number should be AND (like your original code) instead of OR, with description coming afterwards as an OR, but I don't know the answer. Of course, I can use name only now just for that wish (which makes me happy!) but I would not have known about it unless I looked and had seen that it had been skipped. It also made me realise - isn't episode part in the same hierarchy as series and episode #, rather than name? With the blanks, you are correct, my idea was to force a record if only one of the fields were blank. But it doesn't seem to fit neatly in a particular order.
