.patterns.txt Exclude shows?

[Robert Thomas]

Hi,

Is it possible to exclude shows in the patterns file? atm I using "ABC iView/By Channel/ABC4Kids//" but when it kids to the Kids live channel it stops because the stream does work for downloading.

Exception: Missing program stream for LS1604H001S00ABC KIDS Live Stream: 5:00am to 7:30pm AEDT.ts

Would be nice to exclude it, instead of putting each show in individually.

Sorry, autograbber.py uses Python's fnmatch library which does not support exclusions.

Did you try putting the program name "KIDS Live Stream: 5:00am to 7:30pm AEDT.ts" into the ".history.txt" file instead? It should work assuming the file name of this program in the list does not change everyday?

See my pull request https://bitbucket.org/delx/webdl/pull-requests/7/implement-exclude-pattern/diff

I implemented it as a second pattern using ~ as a separator. In OP case you would specify something like:

ABC iView/By Channel/ABC4Kids/*~*Live Stream*

ie. each component of the path is pattern matched and may include an exclusion clause, if my reading of the code is correct.
