It has been quite often requested to support EPG colouring depending on categories. This is not too easy to be made - and must be very flexible and to be maintained by the user, as categories quite frequently change and seem to come sometimes "out of the mind of a writer" (of a tv magazine) - including misspelling of words.
Nevertheless, such a feature would be great.
In Argus we have "Suggestion Plans" (SP) - which highlight specific EPG entries according to sugg. schedules. Those Suggestion Schedules can easily be bound to a set of categories, are simple to configure and beyond that - far more flexible than just following categories. (Like SP for actors, directors, parts of a name, ...)
If we could extend the SP functionality with the following attributes:
- Background colour
- Border colour & thickness
- Font colour (and maybe even font typology/selection for the brave )
- Allow individual icons (best: only png file w/ or /wo transparency) (today: automatically is shown)
And: far easier to realize. Let's give suggestion plans a different name like "Suggestion Highlighting" - fair enough.
BUT: for what concerns the WebInterface - this is not so easy to incorporate.
