for SH* and EP* ids.

Ah.. already starting on next week are we!  I looked at this week (Thu 
on Thu).  Sigh.. looks like they still have issues.   I will bring this 
up example on the CC with them today. Thanks!

WOW! A *new* flag with a SH* program id.  I've never seen that before.  
Looks like I may need to update XMLTV to deal with this.

BTW.. thanks a lot, this is great info, stuff I consider "actionable"
