Hi Guys,
I recently sorted out my EPG data and now want to use genre colouring - I use digiguide for my guide data so there is always a sensible set of genres (sitcom, comedy, film etc...) this is sent to XMLTV and imported to MePo.
Could someone explain how I map the genres to something usable by XBMC (I enabled reading of genres in the addon, and have a splash of colour here and there.. but most is still grey)
I looked at the genre_translation.xml file.. but don't understand how / what it's doing.. my strings are in english so i'm not sure if it's even needed, plus there is a default set of genres in Mediaportal TV Server, that I can map the XMLTV genres to, but I'm not sure what genres are even read by XBMC.
Anyone care to shed some light on this?
