      $PROG_NAME [ -start DAYS ] [ -offset DAYS ] [ -day DAYS ]

      -start  DAYS      holt das Programm ab DAYS Tagen
      -offset DAYS      holt das Programm bis in DAYS Tagen

      -day DAYS         holt das Programm vom DAYS Tag

      Beispiel:

      $PROG_NAME -start 0 -offset 1

        - holt das Programm vom heutigen Tag

      $PROG_NAME -day 2

        - holt das Programm von AA<FC>bermorgenbb

So you do "xmlprg_de -start 0 -offset 7 > prisma.xmltv". Now it's time for 
"mythfilldatabase --file 1 -1 prisma.xmltv". After that you need to fiddle 
around with the mysql data base to add the missing values for the new records 
in the channel table. That process is not clearly documented and 
"mythfilldatabase --manual" did not work for me. 

I've written to the developer list to make such tranistions easier. Rewriting 
xmlprg_de to make it compatible with the tv_grab_X scripts would be a good 
thing.
