Parsing the EPG into catagories

Postby homepc on Fri May 04, 2007 3:16 pm

I noticed that each program in the EPG is accociated to a category, such as Talk show, Sports Event, Sports Non-event, Comedy.....

I would love to be able to search the EPG by category. I have done some programming in the past, and if I can figure out how to do this I'll give it a shot, but I assume the EPG is created on the fly into a .dat file. If anyone has any ideas on how to do this, I'd certainly like to hear. I got the idea by messing around with a software called Got All Media. It's nothing like xLobby, but it does have a completely searchable EPG.

Thanks
