[mythtv] tv_grab_de again :-(

Hi all,

current CVS doesn't compile with Suse 8.0
please add an
#include <list>
to libs/libmythtv/RingBuffer.h 
then it works.

Now i could install mythtv, but mythfilldatabase with tv_grab_de doesn't work 
correctly. I think it's a bug in the time format.
tv_grab_de prints YYYYMMDDhhmm but mythfilldatabase interpretes 12 character 
timestamps as YYMMDDhhmmss, as far as i understand the sourcecode.

In the mysql database an entry looks like:
|      9 | 20200301220600 | 20200301220625 | fish  und  clips||Skurriles aus 
der Sportwelt. | unbekannt |
and mythepg doesn't work correctly.

>From the xmltv specs:

All dates and times in this DTD follow the same format, loosely based
on ISO 8601.  They can be 'YYYYMMDDhhmmss' or some initial
substring, for example if you only know the year and month you can
have 'YYYYMM'.  You can also append a timezone to the end; if no
explicit timezone is given, UT is assumed.  Examples:
'200007281733 BST', '200209', '19880523083000 +0300'.  (BST == +0100.)

So tv_grab_de works correctly.

Does anybody else from Germany have these problems? How do you get your 
xml-files?
