Description

More updates to the UK EIT parsing code

The attached patch does the following :

Strips out "...." to join Title - Subtitles up Enables the use of "?" or "!" as a subtitle limiter Removes a hack I'd put in for trying to work out if a subtitle was valid. (now uses a percentage ratio to check if a subtitle is too long) Also fixes a typo in a comment Also changes "Movies" to "Movie" in the category table

Having tested this, the percentage based approach to trying to work out where the subtitles begin and end doesn't work very well. Quite a lot of shows have a short title and a long subtitle. Friends is a prime example. With your patch episodes of friends lose there subtitle in the guide data.

Additionally I added support for dropping T4: from the front of channel 4's shows. I'll attach that patch. Applies on top of uk.eit.3.patch.
