I've looked at those 3 grabbers...

ar
Source site broken: Probably permanent (company defunct - taken over by TVArgentina). 

fi_sv
Fixed. (Credit stefanb2) 
Needed an Accept-Language header as per #197.

tr
Agreed. It only works with a forged User-Agent string. (It's probably nothing personal against XMLTV - it seems to be passing known browser UA strings only.)

Cheers,
Geoff
