REQ: Use ending wildcard * to find/match channel names about horepg HOT 2 OPEN

Yes, this used to be the case in the past, but that was removed in favor of having the stuff pulled from TVHeadend (see d8f9018). The code that does what you want is still there though. I'd rather have this configured from TVHeadend if possible. You can still do this by renaming your RTL 7 channel to RTL 7 HD; I think the latest version of TVHeadend has this specifically for EPG only purposes somewhere.

The reasoning behind the TVHeadend version is that, when you sync the DVB-C names in TVHeadend, it does not break the Horizon API interface because the provider uses that exact same link for the services that it provides. For that reason I would not like to implement the wildcard.

from horepg.

Here's what I did:

Create a new user in TVH for horepg, limit it to a label containing at least the HD channels.
Optionally hide this label from your regular users (so you limit them to SD channels)

Run horepg, pull the egp-data into TVH.

Configure the SD channels to use the EPG of its HD-counterpart.
