UK EPG fix-up confused by "NEW: Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D."

[Joe Bryant <tenminjoe@…>]

The (otherwise very useful!) fix to remove "NEW:" from program titles seems to get confused by "NEW: Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D."

The title is transformed to "Marvel's Agents of S" instead of "Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D."

When the title in the EIT doesn't have the "NEW" prefix, it shows up correctly as "Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D."

I could not reproduce the issue in master. What version are you running?

[mythtvbugs@…]

I see this with v0.27.6-14-gd8dc0e7 on the Master, and v0.27.5-73-g6883c20 for ARM on the slave (which has the DVB-T USB dongle fitted).

I should clarify that there's a little bit of deduction/guesswork here - I don't actually know 100% what the incoming data looks like.

I definitely see the "Marvel's Agents of S" final result, and it only happens on the first showing of each episode, but I don't know exactly what data is going into the process - it's possible that E4 are sending some new kind of nonsense data in the first place.

[mythtvbugs@…]

All of my recordings of that show are titled "Marvel's Agents of S" with the subtitle "H.I.E.L.D <actual subtitle here>".

I believe the fix is in master (and not in any fixes/0.27 branch). Test there. Or backport to your local copy of 0.27 and compile.

ugly fix for UK EIT Fixups to handle 'Agents of Shield'

A better regex like (?:[:]|(?<=[\!\?])|(?<!\.\w)\.|(?<=\.\w\.))\s
is not supported due to missing support for lookbehind.
(Keep the full stop if its part of an abbreviation)
