together. The size of that file would grow tremendously which I
assume would have nothing but adverse affects. I don't really see the
point of pictures either. Can you elaborate on what purpose this
would serve?
Well, I agree that storing meida files separately would be wiser, but being able to point to those files from within the EPG.data file without abusing description or other fields with tags-reinvention will be helpful.
The use is simple, show more information for programs. Many sities of the channels provide that information already, including pictures and movie trailers. There is also IMDB that can be used. As an example, MythTv has a nice use of IMDB for stored movies.
Same can be implemented for live movies as well.
