Indeed. Someone fixed it
Right, below is my current document. Many thanks to millsb for making the test AltEPG image available as a tarball, without this the comparison would have been impossible.
As mentioned above, 1.9.4 wasn't updated after release but there were essential patches that were written by UK users on tivocommunity threads. Not everyone applied every patch (eg the "missing first/last programme in schedule" patch, or the Sky Radio fix) so it's a major headache when people shove up a ui.itcl file in a posting creating yet another branch. It was basically a roll-your-own system. New users always started from lightn's download, hit the genres/guide problems and then posted for help.
Summary: It looks feasible to merge the main branch and the AltEpg iso branch, but first I want to understand why the call to GetSAGenres was replaced and where the AltEpg version came from. Many of the mods are credited to A. O'Connell - was he a user on the OzTiVo team? It would explain why many of the our patches are missing. Does anyone know?
========================================================================================
Main UK-tivocommunity branch (patches posted on tivocommunity)
========================================================================================
1.9.4 final. Dec 2002/Jan 2003.
No images by default except recycle (deleted) image. Suggestion to make your own
default "export TIVOSH_POOLSIZE=2916352"; this will be insufficient with many modules.
Genrepatch, 30 Jan 2003.
Change to proc GetSAGenres in ui.itcl to handle multiple subgenres (a change to Tribune data)
NB: There were no official Tivoweb 1.9.4 releases after this point. UK Users generally reported errors on tivocommunity threads, and patches were posted in the thread. Sometimes complete "ui.itcl" files were posted. But there more issues there are the harder it becomes to track changes, particularly when people post complete "ui.itcl" files containing some but not all patches
.Slotfree patch, 22 May 2003
LJ: patches to use 4 different icons to show clashes.
requires lj_utils.itcl support file.
Included in the main branch as so many people used it.
Guidefix, 5/6 Sep 2005.
Change to proc action_listings in ui.itcl:
LJ: fix for missing programmes in guide (first/last programme in schedule)
BobBlue: fix to LJ's code to remove last $stationid param to do_listingsrow lines (shouldn't've been there)
Nicer icons, 8 Nov 2005.
Posted by user TheEndless on tivocommunity, nicely rendered set including icons for LJ's slotfree patch (below)
Sky Radio fix, 1 Mar 2006.
Change to index.itcl and ui.itcl to add 1000 to stations with $affiliation == "{RADIO STATION}"
NB: patch to ui.itcl is in proc action_channellist, posted on forum only; moves radio stations to
end of list.
ukgenre.js file updates. Each time Tribune changed the genre and sub-genres, a new JS file had to be built.
