UPC programme data grabber released

I mentioned a few days ago that I'd been working on a grabber to pull TV programme timetable data for the channels in UPC's digital TV package.

Well, with the family out of the country, I seized the opportunity to clean up the code, squash a couple of bugs and add some hopefully useful command-line options. With that work done, all that remained was to put up a page, telling people how to use the software. And with that work now done, I can announce it, which is what I'm doing.

I don't expect a lot of interest in this software. After all, how many users of MythTV can there be in The Netherlands? And how many of those are subscribers to UPC's digital TV package? And how many of those care about the channels for which data can't be obtained from the usual source, tvgids.nl? Well, I'd be surprised if I needed more than one hand to count them all.

For those people, but mostly for myself and Sarah, I give you tv_grab_nl_upc.
