   Yes, it's bad:  the installed tv_grab_uk_rt is returning the *same* [& 
wrong] times for programmes on channels *and* their tsod-plus-1 counterparts.

   E.g.,

# watch.xmltv
encoding=utf-8
cachedir=/tmp/xmltv-cache
title-processing=enabled
channel=watch.uktv.co.uk
channel=tsod.plus-1.watch.uktv.co.uk


# RT site times for this prog. (6:10 am)
...~27/04/2011~06:10~06:35~25


# partial output of unedited tv_grab_uk_rt on CentOS5 (within BST)
...
   <programme start="20110427051000 +0100" stop="20110427053500 +0100" 
channel="watch.uktv.co.uk">
     <title>Animal Park: Wild in Africa</title>
...
   <programme start="20110427051000 +0100" stop="20110427053500 +0100" 
channel="tsod.plus-1.watch.uktv.co.uk">
     <title>Animal Park: Wild in Africa</title>
...



   This is my latest patch to the grabber:

--- /usr/bin/tv_grab_uk_rt      2010-12-18 06:42:33.000000000 +0000

+}
+else
+{
+    # UTC required for XMLTV::DST (DM6)
  Date_Init('TZ=UTC');
+}

  die "Error: You cannot specify --quiet with --debug, exiting"
      if ($opt->{quiet} && $opt->{debug});



   This gives me the equiv. & correct output:
...
   <programme start="20110427061000 +0100" stop="20110427063500 +0100" 
channel="watch.uktv.co.uk">
     <title>Animal Park: Wild in Africa</title>
...
   <programme start="20110427061000 +0100" stop="20110427063500 +0100" 
channel="watch.uktv.co.uk">
     <title>Animal Park: Wild in Africa</title>
...


   I can't really take this any further myself.  I shall run with my patch 
for now;  I have to apply it to my Myth box and do a full update to see if 
(a) the normal times are still correct, and (b) the +1 times are now correct.
