Channel Mapparr Plugin - Version 0.2 Changelog

New Features

• Ignored Tags Field: Configure tags to remove during matching

  • Default: [4K], [FHD], [HD], [SD], [Unknown], [Unk], [Slow], [Dead]
  • Case-insensitive matching
  • Automatically handles both bracket [HD] and parentheses (HD) versions

• Enhanced OTA Channel Support

  • Improved Prefix Handling: Now handles multiple US/USA prefix formats such as US:, USA:, US -, USA -, US | and variations.
  • Better Callsign Extraction:
    • Extracts callsigns from formats like (WMTW-PORTLAND MAINE) → WMTW.
    • Rejects false positives like KIDS, WOMEN, EAST, WEST.
  • Smart Fallback Logic: Only attempts premium matching when NO callsign is found, which prevents OTA channels from incorrectly matching premium channels.

• Premium/Cable Channel Improvements

  • Regional Indicator Positioning: Regional tags are now placed immediately after the channel name.
    • Before: HBO Comedy (H) West
    • After: HBO Comedy West (H) ✅
  • Enhanced Normalization: Better handling of channel name variations and prefixes.

Code Quality

• Removed Debug Logging: Cleaner output with only essential information.
• Improved Error Handling: Better feedback for missing data files and API errors.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed an issue where prefixes like (SP2) were being preserved in final names.
• Fixed regional indicator extraction for standalone words (not just those in parentheses).
• Fixed ignored tags not being properly removed during matching.
