HbbTV is not a browser #119

Open NielsLeenheer opened 8 years ago

NielsLeenheer commented 8 years ago

In all of the UA strings below, the browser is detected as 'HbbTV'. But HbbTV is a specification and not the name of a browser. In all of the UA strings there is no actual information about the browser that is used.

HbbTV/1.1.1 (;;;;;) Maple_2011
HbbTV/1.1.1 (;Panasonic;VIERA 2011;1.805;0071-7702 2000-0000;)
HbbTV/1.1.1 (;Samsung;SmartTV2012;;;) WebKit

How to deal with this notice?

a) remove HbbTV/1.x from the user_agent_parser regexes?
b) take the standard as is and the parsing as is as well?
