Hmm, I wonder how to represent this information in the XMLTV format.
Perhaps I should just append 'Omroep: X' to the description. Perhaps
in the new format this information should have its own home? I wonder
if there are other countries that use a similar system. There are
party political broadcasts, but that's not really the same, since the
Roman Catholic group is just as likely to show sitcoms as to show
anything specifically related to its message.

OK, I have assumed that means a 16:9 aspect ratio and included it in
the output.
>'Slot' means the last episode of a series
I have noted that in the source code but the current XMLTV format
doesn't give a way to represent this information.

If it appears in the list of actors I should just remove it, since
it's implicit in the XMLTV output.
I have made these changes in CVS, but with the channels I used for
testing they made no difference to the output. Perhaps you would like
to try the changes for yourself. The CVS pserver access is often out
of date, so you could grab the latest version direct from
