[QUOTE="dvdfreak, post: 160877, member: 21313"] Perhaps it would be better to map on the XMLTV id, which is unique? But then again, if you switch to another guide source and the ID changes you're going to be "screwed". So mapping on the channel name is not such a bad idea after all. But you are right, it should be possible to tweak the mapping, in case of a mismatch. In any case, I know the MP database contains an "external ID" field in the channel table, so it's possible it does switch on the XMLTV id after all. Would have to look at the code to be sure, but perhaps someone else following this thread knows for sure... [/QUOTE]
