please add some improvements"

dvb-x:
recordings:
better fail naming, right now it is only 
%epgname%[-number].m2t
please do something like 
%epgname%-%channelname%-%timeanddate%.m2t
(see me-tv (debian package) for an good example.

Please improve the EPG data so that new lines are displayed correctly

please save EPG data near the recorded files (or in its meta data)

please improve the recording settings for the case there are conflicts between multiple recordings

add priority to scheduled recordings

add feature to scan all channels for EPG data (on demand and automatically in background)

add feature for automatic EPG search which program recordings


not tv related improvements:

add option to pause playback automatic when minimized to notification area



Reproducible: Always

1.3 and newer has some of these.

Custom naming available.
EPG can be chosen to be saved.
Automatically records programs matching given regex.
Comment 2 Mauro Carvalho Chehab 2016-06-22 22:46:16 UTC
Most issues addressed. What's missing:

- update EPG while idle;
- pause when minimized;
- EPG data is not saved.

I'm not planning to address the above issues on a near future, as I lack the time, but feel free to send patches addressing them, if they're still required.
