I think Klaus should include a RegExp-Parse in VDR. For Master-Timer
this is (or would be, if i where interested in VOX) easy. :-)


I think every station should use the format that Premiere uses for their
channels. That format is quite good(tm) (At least in my eyes :-) ).


Title: <Title>
Subtitle: 
- If the broadcast is a series: <Episode-Name>
- If the broadcast is a movie: <Genre> (e.g. "Fantasy", "Actionfilm")
  I counted 82 different Genres. (-> Master-timer/sample/macros the "MOVIE"-Macro)

Extented: (A bit simplyfied. The actual format has some more details)
<Summary>.<Country> <year>. Von <Director>, mit <Actor(s)>


In the "<Summary>" there are also sometimes the names of actors
e.g. "Neo (Keanu Reeves)".

Real Programmers consider "what you see is what you get" to be just as 
bad a concept in Text Editors as it is in women. No, the Real Programmer
wants a "you asked for it, you got it" text editor -- complicated, 
cryptic, powerful, unforgiving, dangerous.
