Just realized....do I need to re-install the addon? Do I only need to xfer the .py files, or do I also need to xfer over the settings.xml file (which means I'd have to redo all my settings

Reason I ask is that I installed the addon (moving over only the .py files), rebooted and did not see the genre options show up.

Other than that, another successful download/update last night and no "No information found" msgs in TV/Guide. The other thing I noticed is that zap2epg seems to be much more stable than zap2xml ever was. Numerous times when i was working on zap2xml and making changes and adjustments, it would freeze my system and I'd have to do a hard reset. Have not yet had that show up in zap2epg. Makes me very happy (but still going to install a Python-coded reset/reboot switch just for the future

Thx again for all the effort...cheers....

OK - here's an update with a new addition - genre information options! Some people  want to have a colored EPG.  In many Kodi skins - if there is genre information included, the epg will colorize based on the genre.  Right now there is a big discrepancy between the DVB listings format in tvheadend/kodi and what is used in North America.  As a result, tvheadend includes some scraping ability to map some of the genres and I've included additional ones in zap2epg to colorize as much as possible based on the original DVB category assignments.  I've called this option "Full".

However, some people don't want colorized listings and want a "clean" EPG.  Estuary (default Kodi 17 skin) does not include an option to disable the EPG color, so I've done the next best thing.  Given you an option in zap2epg to disable the genre information.  While this will obviously leave the genre listing blank in the EPG - it also means there won't be any colors.  I've called this option "None".

I've also included an in between option where the only colors that happen are for Movies, News, Children, Sports and all other shows types are colored the same.  This makes for a "cleaner" colorization as only a few major genre types are used.  I've called this option "Simple".

You will find this new option in the zap2epg configuration settings.  Please note that you will likely need to reboot after upgrading in order to see the new setting.  (that's a Kodi thing)

If you're ready to try it - here you go!
