Original Air Date - othello1 - 2019-02-23

I am using NextPVR as my recording backend, fed by SchedulesDirect. How do I persuade/configure Rapier to show the original air dates for my recordings? I can see it in embedded in the XML data for this example event:
<Event>
  <OID>54247974</OID>
  <Title>Top Chef Junior</Title>
  <SubTitle>You Are Top Chef Junior</SubTitle>
  <Description>Owen Pereira and Rahanna Bisseret Martinez, the two remaining contestants, battle to be the first title holder of Top Chef Junior.</Description>
  <ChannelOID>7261</ChannelOID>
  <StartTime>2019-02-23T01:00:00.0000000Z</StartTime>
  <EndTime>2019-02-23T02:00:00.0000000Z</EndTime>
  <FirstRun>false</FirstRun>
  <OriginalAirDate>2018-02-02T00:00:00.0000000</OriginalAirDate>
  <Season>1</Season>
  <Episode>14</Episode>
  <Rating>TVG</Rating>
  <Genres>
    <Genre>Cooking</Genre>
    <Genre>Children</Genre>
  </Genres>
  <Cast>
    <Member>Host:Vanessa Lachey</Member>
    <Member>Host:Curtis Stone</Member>
  </Cast>
  <MD5>EP027685580017</MD5>
  <UniqueID>EP027685580017</UniqueID>
</Event>

So FirstRun flag is set to false and the OriginalAirDate has a value. I would like to see this date included in the recording information panel, if possible.

Hi othello1.

Thanks a lot for the suggestions.

I assume you use Kodi 18 Leia?

I tried updating info labels for the recordings window.
But I don't have a proper setup to test them.

Please install my development repository to get the latest version with the changes: 11.2.32

And let me know if the air date infolabel is properly displayed.
Maybe take a screenshot?

RE: Original Air Date - othello1 - 2019-02-25

Tried the updated package but no luck.
I took some screen shot snippets of the version, the thumbnail in the recording list, and the recording info panel where I hoped I might see the original recording date.
This forum GUI doesn't seem to allow uploads or attachments. How do I include them?

If the image is on your computer, then use button 19.
If the image has already been uploaded to a public image hosting site, right click the image and select Copy image location then use button 14 and paste the link

Oh yeah, it is indeed in v18.1 Leia.

RE: Original Air Date - othello1 - 2019-02-25

Got it. I was not familiar with the "imgur" icon.
Here are the screen shot snippets of 11.2.3.2 in v18 Leia.

Ah,I see.
I added the info in the regular recordings window.
Please check if you see it there. You can find it in the info on the left.

I'll add it to the recording info window as well.


EDIT:  Actually, the info label is already included in the recording info window.

RE: Original Air Date - Gade - 2019-02-27

If available, the premiered info will be visible here:

I use the info label
Code:
ListItem.Premiered
as it seems that's the only apropriate one.

From the wiki: "Shows the release/aired date of the currently selected episode, show, movie or EPG item in a container"

If you don't see the label, something else is wrong.
