I've started cleaning up the PVR API. This will be a breaking change, so if you're developing PVR add-ons, make sure you implement the necessary changes as soon as the new API is implemented. I'll do the changes in the add-ons that are currently in the tree myself.
This is a list of changes to come:
Some methods that are removed now will probably be reimplemented later, but not before PVR has been merged with mainline. We need a stable and clean API now, to prepare for the binary add-on framework and the merge with mainline.
I'll do the changes in a separate branch first, which will probably be on github later this week end.
This is a list of changes to come:
- all data structures will be changed: members names will be changed to match their equals on XBMC's side and currently unused members will be removed.
- currently unused or unneeded methods will be removed.
- some method names and types will be changed to match their names on XBMC's side (e.g. bouquet -> channelgroup)
- timezone conversions will be removed: all times will have to be provided as UTC.
- the EPG and PVR APIs will be split up. I'll split up the implementations later.
