If you look at "ETSI EN 300 468 V1.16.1 (2019-08)" in the "6.2.15 Extended event descriptor" section, there are two types of text
fields - items and text. The items field consists of one or more item_description and item pairs. Some satellite providers transmits information about the country, year. actors, etc. in the items field, and the description of the event in the text field, which is displayed in enigma2, while the items field is ignored by the enigma.
On open distributions, a patch was applied to solve this problem.

Is it possible to apply a similar patch?

Hi @PitDron, can you please give some examples of providers using items?

Hi.
These parameters are defined on pages 64-65 of the standard in section "6.2.15 Extended event descriptor" and can be used both now and in the future by any operators.

I know that the TricolrTV satellite provider uses this field. An example of a dvbsnoop dump for an EIT table is shown below.
