Req epg genre strings editable...
#1
The genre strings used in the live TV epg (19499 - 19684) are hard coded to always use the default GB strings.po

It would be nice to allow those string ids to be overwritten by either a localized language - or even better - an addon that allows someone to custom change the message. This would be helpful to those who use a PVR backend that only fill the genre type/subtype fields and don't fill the genre string field.

Also, in the long run, Kodi could be using the newer broadcast standard for Content CS (located in A8 of the following document) http://www.etsi.org/deliver/etsi_ts/1028...10701p.pdf

Not sure what needs to change to allow 19499-19684 to be rewritten but point me in the right direction and I'm happy to code, build and test!
Current Kodi addon projects: zap2epg, sd4tvh and tvh2kodi (tvh config from inside Kodi)
Testing ATSC single and dual tuners on RPi3 and the occasional s905 box
If you like my work you can buy me a coffee!

You can actually do this by making a "fake" language add-on. You would just copy the language add-on you want, change the strings.po file, and then change the version number to something high so that it take priority over the real ones.
