[mythtv] [mythtv-users] Program Data

[Chiwda Lover]

I could not find anything in the archives (but I did not look very hard 
considering I would have had to download one file per month per mailing list 
- SHEEESH!!).  I looked on the Wiki, but a very sparse explanation is 
available.

Anyway, I am now cross posting to the dev list because perhaps the question 
should have been posted there in the first place.

How do I actually get the EIT information?  Is there a utility that I can 
use?  If not, how do I go about writing one?  Ideally I would like to get 
this information and then push it into mythfilldatabase somehow.  I can 
write shell scripts and even a little C code - am I capable of doing what I 
need?

Thanx,
Chiwda
