There's no on-air guide in Australia.

They do transmit current and next program information, but that works in
a different way and isn't particularly useful anyway.

The only option for an HDTV program guide is to munge the SDTV guide.
Someone posted a script here a while ago that would take a list of known
HD programs and morph your SDTV listings into HDTV. I haven't tried it
yet but it sounds promising.
