Maybe I get something wrong here ... but I think that Ben's script has not 
been functional for months because TV Movie has stopped making their XML data 
publicly available. At least it doesn't work for me, and other projects that 
used this data source have mentioned the same problems.

So, does this script work again? (I currently use Lars Heer's script at 
http://kurze-schwuenge.dyndns.org/epia-m/xmlprg_de.pl)

Sorry if I missed something.
