Theme Table

[This is preliminary documentation and subject to change.]

The Theme table in the Guide database defines information about themes. A theme allows an episode to be associated with multiple genre/subgenre pairs, because genre/subgenre pairs can share the same T Theme ID field.

For example, a motion picture might have a T Theme ID of 2, placed in the E Theme ID field of the Episode table. In the Theme table, the genre/subgenre pair Science Fiction/Movie and the genre/subgenre pair Movie/Action can both share that same T Theme ID of 2.

The Theme table contains the following fields.

Field Description
T Genre ID Foreign key from the Genre table.
T Sub Genre ID     Foreign key from the Sub-Genre table.
T Theme ID Internally generated unique identifier for this record.
