Here is a reformatted dump from the data file for House episode:

28|73800|77400|1|20:30|49|/T284056|House|A high-school senior blacks
out during a school field trip and hallucinates repeatedly at the
hospital. Meanwhile, Taub complains about his personal life; and
Wilson tries to furnish his
condo.|1|/pngs/pgr.png|1|50|/30774|House|No synopsis available|0|

28 (show listing number, starts at 1 for each day)
73800 (start time in seconds from midnight)
77400 (end time in seconds)
1 (unknown)
20:30 (text start time)
49 (unknown, repeats on all entries, all channels)
/T284056 (series ID)
House (title of show)
A high-school ... (description)
1 (number of icons)
*n (/pngs/*.png icons per number above, for teletext/rating/etc)
50 (unknown)
/30744 (episode number, but just a guess)
House (seems to mirror show title, sometimes a longer version)
No synopsis... (text synopsis)
0 (unknown, almost always 0)

Now, at the start of each file is the crid://tvnz.co.nz base URL.  So
my understanding is that a MHEG STB + internet connection would do a
crid://tvnz.co.nz/T284056 to lookup House, then
crid://tvnz.co.nz/30744 for the episode.

Now it is possible that rb-download doesn't completely decode all the
data from the MHEG stream.  But that's all the info I have to work
with at the moment.
