Hello.

I've just knocked up a little processor script called xmltv-proc-nz;

http://www.nice.net.nz/xmltv-proc-nz

Basically it does what epgsnoop does but without depending on epgsnoop
i.e. you can use it with any XMLTV file;

cat freeview-web.xml | xmltv-proc-nz > better-data.xml

or;

xmltv-proc-nz freeview-web.xml > better-data.xml

I'm planning to use it with the freeview-web.xml.gz file which is hosted
on epg.pvr.geek.nz to augment the data.

Currently it does subtitle replacements and the normalisation from;

http://epg.pvr.geek.nz/title-replacements/

but I plan on adding more to that as well as moving the category data
from epgsnoop to a web service as the above.

Interested in any feedback or thoughts. Also if anyone is currently
using the freeview-web file?

hads
