I'm running 0.25 and the seriesid field is populated for all programs 
whereas programid is missing for a few programs but is populated for the 
majority on all channels. Since mhegepgsnoop only creates the programid, 
the seriesid, which seems to be always numeric, must be something myth 
creates.
