Are you getting listings via XMLTV or through MythTV using EIT?

I noticed this problem in the UK with the listings data the uk_rt
XMLTV grabber uses and added support for this (on a per title basis)
so that the titles/subtitles are fixed before they hit the MythTV
database. Configuration is via a text file retrieved by the grabber
and a config flag to enable/disable title processing.

The current fixups within the MythTV EIT processor are quite general
and I doubt the relevant core developers would want to have to
maintain a separate in-code list of titles to process for a specific
country. However it may be possible to add support that uses a
separate text file that is read at runtime and can be enabled on a per
user/country basis.

Cheers,
Nick
