• From now on I use github for my own working repository of MythTV http://github.com/Cougar/mythtv/tree/translations . It is based on Janne's git clone of svn git://git.jannau.net/mythtv . Most of changes are related with estonian translations but it may include other small changes too (XMLTV related for example). I try to submit my patches to MythTV developers as much as I can but as long I don't have SVN write access and need to use Trac tickets it is time consuming and I don't plan to submit each and every change to main SVN tree. My current development layout looks like this:

                  MythTV SVN http://svn.mythtv.org/svn
                                    |
                                    | clone
                                    v
              Janne's git clone git://git.jannau.net/mythtv
                                    |
                                    | clone
                                    v
                          "master" of my clone
                                    |
                                    | merge
                                    v
                          "translations" branch  -->  git://github.com/Cougar/mythtv.git
                                | |   ^ ^
                                | |   | | merge
                                v v   | |
                         local working branches

• I started building a new brand frontend from scratch. Here is a separate page for all information related with new frontend and its building.

• Because of MPEG codec is patented it was not possible to use openSUSE build service for MythTV. There are still some versions available in http://www.version6.net/apt/ but there is no continuous builds for new revisions right now.

• There are new builds of 0.20-fixes in openSUSE build service server for openSUSE_Factory distribution now
• For yum you can download repo file here:
  • wget -o /etc/yum.repos.d/zCougar http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/zCougar/openSUSE_Factory/home:zCougar.repo
• For yast you should add just a new repository URL:
  • http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/zCougar/openSUSE_Factory/

• All new packages will be built for SuSE 10.2 only. At least right now these works with SuSE 10.1 also (tested). Don't know about the future
• New repository works with all package installers with XML Package Metadata support like Yast, rug, zypper and yum. Also apt is still supported.
• For yum you can download repo file here:
  • wget -o /etc/yum.repos.d/version6.net.repo http://www.version6.net/apt/SuSE/10.2-i386/version6.net.repo

• PimpTV closed its station and there are no listings for them any more

Some new channels are available since today:

• Animal Planet
• Discovery Channel
• Discovery Civilization
• Discovery Science
• Travel and Living

• All latest tv_grab_ee updates are now available in offical XMLTV build. SuSE 10.1 version is also available in version6 APT repository.

• Since now there will be new SVN based MythTV packages only for SuSE 10.1. I Upgraded my last 10.0 today and don't need 10.0 packages any more. You can always use 10.1 SRPM and try to build packages for other versions yourself.

• There are new features on tv_grab_ee now:
  • use transparentcache if available (not required)
  • XMLTV postprocessing with following features (needs reconfiguration):
    • strips genrenames from title
    • extracts country and year information from movies titles
    • splits titles with series names to title and subtitle
    • extracts episode numbers from series titles and subtitles
    • detects previously shown shows
    • extracts stereo, teletext and aspect ratios from descriptions
    • changes category names so that only first char is uppercase

Patch can be downloaded from CVS

• SuSE 10.0 package is also available in version6.net APT:
  • perl-XMLTV-0.5.44-20060926.i586.rpm

• New tv_grab_ee for kava.ee listings is available now. Please test it and give me a feedback. It will be commited to the CVS tree soon.
