EPG Translator (Discussion thread)

That makes no sense to me.
Not clear whether you are referring to begin_props or end_props, but both were changed to allow [ or ( to start a grouping.

So:

 (?:\[                      # Start a group

became

 (?:                        # Start a group
  (?:\[|\()                 # Opening [ or (

You are starting a group a second time, which should fail.

Could you send the text (or a screen picture) of a description that suffered? My tests (admittedly in Perl, but these are Perl regxes and it's so much easier to debug with) all work fine.

I simple use notepad+ use compare and looked at what changed between rc7 and rc8

I changed back

begin_props = """
( # Start all [] groups saving
(?: # Start a group

to

begin_props = """
( # Start all [] groups saving
(?:\[ # Start a group

that is the only change i made and works.

Hope that make sense

Well, no it doesn't.
Except that it might prevent the property groups being removed from the description (since nothing is going to match), which might explain it as then everything would be passed on to be translated (which can be a problem).
So it's possible that your programme descriptions are such that too much is being pulled of into the property groups.
So I really need to see one of those descriptions that fail.

I hoped it made sense that i coped from rc7 to rc8 lmfao I cant help you other then to report what i find.

Just try any channels on 13e or o.8w and the problem is easy to see.

Not when I only have UK Freeview, and so am not seeing any problems at all.

Can’t see any problems with translations my end after rigorously testing on 19.2E..

Thanks.

That's why I need an example of something which fails from someone who sees it failing.
