XMLTV Reader - Universal Parsing

Latest version of XMLTV Reader Uploaded a minute or two ago

Improvements:

  • We only parse the file once now, so this will hopefully go a long way in reducing memory and cpu usage.
  • A Way to display extended information in grid view has been discovered, however, it is too taxing on the cpu. Might find a better method for the next version (using the Button/PictureBox/ButtonBase classes and overlaying that on the timeline)
  • Bug fixed where the whole timeline would get f’ed up if you went to any other view and switched back to the timeline view.
  • Removed old and unused code.
  • Improved the way that the extended info is displayed in the textbox below the table.  Before it was statically coded, now it determines which stuff has no information (ie: some shows might have a "Ep title" tidbit, whereas some shows might not).

Improvements for the next version:

  • I might actually read the xmltv spec <cough>
  • Get the extended info working in grid view.

Same link as usual. enjoy.
