Ah yes, sorted now, thanks for the pointer. I had the code but got a bit stuck 
when it didn't do much. Changing the define appears to have it working now. 
Found the EPG data buried in some symlinks.

I'll see what the quality of the data is like compared to the stuff I'm 
grabbing from Sky and maybe try and parse it out.

Cheers,
