Post number 10, somebody asked a question about parental control base on EPG.

 

So enigma2 is still not reading age rating, correct?

In some new images there's an option in MENU -> SYSTEM - > PARENTAL CONTROL to lock programmes based on age:

 

 

 

The screen shot of this new setting:

The specific snapshot is from OpenATV 5.3 on a VU+ DUO2, but I get exactly the same result using openBH 0.4 (on another VU+ DUO2) and OpenPLi 4.0 on a Wetek Play.

So I think this rating by age is a major commit in newest open alliance based images.

 

 

I could add the rating of the shows in the XMLTV files.  But at the moment this would not have much of an effect, as this tag is not imported.

I order for this to have any effect, the XMTV importer has to be adapted for inclusion of the rating tag.  I do not how to do that.  I do not even know where this info is stored in enigma2.

 

Secondly:  What is the format I have to make this rating info.  Normally this is presented as 18+, 16, 14  etc..  But al kinds of variations exist.

These can all be translated to a standard, but I do not know what standard enigma2 is using.

 

Can somebody enlighten me.  And possibly include this tag in the XMLTV importer.

 

In the XMLTV file this will look like this (here from Poland)

<rating system="PL">
      <value>od 12 lat</value>
    </rating>

The format of the value is to be determined.  Here directly grabbed, without modification.
