It's an alternative to xmltv, you get an xmltv compatible listing for Germany.
Use mythfilldatabase --file option to insert it into the database. The listings 
are good quality and more detailed then the original xmltv.

Attached is an sql file that I used to build my channel table, you can go
from there. (I'm not sure if it's still up to date with the database structure, 
haven't used it in a while.)
