Mike,

I'm guessing you are either using a version of XMLTV <= 0.5.49, or are
using a later version of XMLTV with $XMLTV_SUPPLEMENT pointing to a
local version of channel_ids.

Versions of XMLTV later than 0.5.49 have XMLTV::Supplement support and
default to getting the online version of channel_ids which uses the
updated XMLTV IDs.

Nick
