Summary: tv_grab_sn parsing for more details

Initial Comment:
Hi,

Good work guys, keep it up!

I was wondering if it would be possible to parse the 
listings from www.dagenstv.com to output more detailed 
information.

I'm using Snapstream PVS, and in their EPG database 
they have these fields: 
-ProgTitle
-DisplayTitle
-SearchTitle
-ProgDesc
-Genre
-MPAA
-EpisodeTitle
-OrigAirDate
-Actors
-Credits.

I have been using another app to parse the XML-file, 
but when they have a new release of that application, I 
have to do the fitting all over again. So I was wondering 
if it would be possible to parse the info from 
dagenstv.com into the XML-file once and for all. Then it 
would be taken care of without any further problems.

What I have been thinking about is to have a 
configuration file that contains data used when parsing 
the title and description coming from dagenstv.com
to analyze the content of the title and description so 
the info ends up in the right tag with the right/corrected 
information. See the attached file that parses the title 
and description. The config file would contain known ID's 
which we could fill in as a search criteria. 

Reruns:   {(R), Reprise}
Subtitled: {(t)} : OnScreen,Norwegian

(For genre:)
Genre:Sitcom: {komiserie}
Genre:News: {nyheter, news, aktualitetsprogram, 
dagsrevyen}
Genre:Gameshow: {spørrelek}
Genre:Comedy: {komedie}
Genre:Drama / War: {krigsdrama}
Genre:Documentary: {dokumentar, dokument 2}

Or something like this. Where the genre has several 
options for the same type of genre.


Let me give you an example: 100 Centre Street (t) (5) 
(r) (ttv)

In the title there is the title (of course) but also the 
episode number (5), (in Norway) subtitled (t), reruns (r), 
and text-tv (ttv). 
So when I parse the title I want to end up with only the 
title '100 Centre Street' in the title-tag,
and the rest, (t) (5) (r) (ttv), goes into the its 
respective categories/tags or the description.

Here is what the description contains:
'(100 Centre Street) Amerikansk dramaserie. Kritikerrost 
dramaserie av Sidney Lumet fra New Yorks kveldsåpne 
rettsbygning. Her venter hardbarkede kriminelle og unge 
førstegangsforbrytere side om side, for å få sakene sine 
opp i retten. [3022930] '

As for the description, it holds the original title, genre, 
description, actors, and showview info.

I'm a programmer myselft, so I would gladly have done 
this, but I don't know Perl so it might be easier and 
faster if someone else would do it. 

Anyone any thoughts?
