Summary: tv_grab_uk_rt Duplicate start times
Initial Comment:
If the radio times description includes something like:
including five News Update
or something like
Followed by five news at 9
Programme start and finish times overlap surrounding
programmes. I can see the logic in the case
of 'including', but not in the case of 'Followed by'.
For example:
Start of extract from xmltv file (not contiguous):
<programme start="20040222200000 +0000"
stop="20040222210000 +0000"
channel="channel5.co.uk" clumpidx="0/2">
<title lang="en">Back to Reality</title>
<programme start="20040222200000 +0000"
stop="20040222210000 +0000" .....
<title lang="en">five news at 9</title>
Finish of extract from xmltv file (not contiguous)
(that is, five news at 9 is shown as starting at 8 and
finishing at 9, the same timings as the programe it
followed)
Although I can see the logic in duplicating the timings if
it is 'included' in a programme, it would ne 'nice' to be
able to strip such duplicates out or for some flag to be
included in the xmltv file, perhaps denoting if it is
an 'including' or a 'followed by' case :-)
Start of extended contiguous extract from xmltv file:
<programme start="20040222200000 +0000"
stop="20040222210000 +0000"
channel="channel5.co.uk" clumpidx="0/2">

<title lang="en">Demolition Man</title>
<desc lang="en">This pretension-free, futuristic
thriller comes pretty close to being Sylvester Stallone's
best ever picture. (Audio-described) Wisely keeping his
tongue stuck firmly in his cheek, Stallone plays a tough
cop whose unconventional methods land him in a
cryogenic prison. Decades later, he is defrosted to hunt
down an old sparring partner, the spectacularly
psychopathic Wesley Snipes (complete with blond
thatch), who has escaped from his deep frozen state
and is creating havoc in the now crime-free Los Angeles
(renamed San Angeles). Of the supporting cast, Sandra
Bullock has an early run at a role she would later perfect
in Speed, Denis Leary gets to deliver one of his thinly
disguised stand-up routines, while Nigel Hawthorne plays
the doctor overseeing this 21st-century Utopia.</desc>
