I have my own version of tv_grab_nz which is written in perl instead of
python and it works perfectly with mythfilldatabase using the --file
option.

The "official" tv_grab_nz does not include a stop time which from memory
is a problem for mythfilldatabase.

Once I have finished adding Sky channel listings to my grabber I will be
attempting to get it included in the xmltv distribution.
