Wktivoguide - Generate Guide Data Slices File for TiVo

Wktivoguide is a set of Perl scripts that can retrieve TV guide data from web sources and convert it into the slice format used by the TiVo. Limitations:

The license on the software only allows it to be used in those parts of the world which cannot obtain a program subscription service from TiVo, Inc.
The license on the software only allows the program to be used for non-commercial purposes. You cannot sell this program, nor can you use this program to sell a service.

If you are still interested, then here you will find:

A gzipped tarball of the wktivoguide software, version 3.5.
The README which tells you how to use it. Please read all of this document before you try to run the software.
Format of the intermediate files used by the program and some example intermediate files (2 Megs)
New proposed format of the intermediate files.

For legal reasons, I have had to remove all code that can fetch data from hww.com websites, including Yahoo, Austar and Foxtel websites.
