Matcher accuracy & coverage release.

Highlights

  • CALLSIGN (NETWORK) callsign anchoring — high-confidence matching of US OTA affiliates against feeds that name stations KGTV (ABC) / WPLG-DT (CBS) (e.g. jesmann-US), gated on a known-callsign allowlist built from the loaded channel databases so callsign-shaped English words aren't promoted.
  • Sibling-channel guards — numbered, time-shift, and ordinal siblings (Fox Sports 1/2, BBC One/Two, ITV2/ITV2 +1, HBO 1/2) no longer cross-match.
  • Corrected similarity scoring — the Levenshtein ratio now matches rapidfuzz's 1 − distance/max-length, eliminating inflated scores that let near-identical siblings slip past the threshold. Optional rapidfuzz acceleration (20–50×) when the library is present; a corrected pure-Python fallback computes the identical score otherwise (no required runtime dependency).
  • Smarter normalization — number-word→digit (BBC Three = BBC 3), CamelCase splitting (DangerTV = Danger TV), dotted-compound splitting (JusticeCentral.TV) with radio frequencies like 97.2 preserved; fixed a USA NetworkNetwork over-strip; FAST streaming-platform source tags (Pluto/Tubi/Roku/Xumo/Plex…) stripped for matching.
  • Deterministic tie-break — equal-score results order by shared original-name token overlap.
  • Norway (NO) channel database added.

Install

Download EPG-Janitor.zip, then in Dispatcharr: Plugins → Import Plugin → upload the zip → enable. Hard-restart Dispatcharr (docker restart dispatcharr) after installing. See the README for full details and the upgrade steps.

Notes

  • No required runtime dependencies (stdlib only); uses rapidfuzz if present for faster matching.
  • 215 offline tests, ruff-clean, CI on Python 3.12 & 3.13.
