Hi Ben,

here's what I get:

[wei at Baden tvmoviefetch]$ python fetchdata.py
Faulty config
[wei at Baden tvmoviefetch]$ more config.py
download_days = 8;
# Get program for that many days, starting from (incl.) today.
# Don't use more days than the provider has online, or you'll produce 
errors.
# Can be overridden using --days param.
baseurl = "http://tvmovie.kunde.serverflex.info/onlinedata/xml-gz/";
# baseurl: where to get the data from. With trailing /, if necessary
datadir = "/var/lib/xmltv/";
# Where to put the downloaded and temporary files.
# Must only be writable by the account running this app and trusted users.
outfile = "all.xmltv";
# the resulting xmltv file with all days, relative to data dir.
# Can be overridden using --output param.
instdir = "/opt/tvmoviefetch/"; # where this file is; with trailing /
imagebaseurl = "http://localhost/"; # for channel icons. invalid for now
logfile = "fetchdata.log";
check_wellformed = 1;
# Set to 0, if you don't want to install qtxmlcheck or it is too slow 
for you. Note that later
# apps may then bail, if there are any errors in any file, and not 
process any of the output.

What's wrong?`
