Well if that file contain data for many channels you could probably write a PHP script(or something like that - I only know PHP) to convert it to the correct format.

Im almost ready to release version 1.1 which has been enhanced quite a bit. Wait for that post for details

Before that, I just need another 2 votes for the current version. Guys, can i request your vote so it can move to the extras repository when QT4.6 will be available officially(PR1.2 perhaps).
Thanks to all who voted already.

Great!
Does it happen to contain a TV-guide like interface? Like 5 channels in a vertical list and programs listed horizontally along a timeline?

Either way, I'm patiently waiting

After the first successful release of Showtime

As promised, here is the much improved version of Showtime v1.1.

The main highlights are:

• Added more countries , the current list is
  UK, Australia, NewZealand, Germany, Spain, Italy, France, Netherlands, Sweden, Denmark, Norway, Finland, Slovenia, Croatia, Belgium, Poland, Russia, Malaysia, South Africa,
• Added better sources for some regions so the channel list is now even bigger.
• Added Search Function to search for any string, or saved favourite strings for each channel.
• Added prime time setting.
• Added a setting to hide past listings.
• Improved the UI a bit, you will notice slight changes, but the usage will remain the same as before.
• Added another icon set
• Once the data is read for a channel, the datesselector gets colored.
  green = avaialable, red = unavailable.

Ive prepared a detailed user guide which is attached, please go through that as it will help you understand how the app can be used best.

Please dont post saying you dont see data for channels X or Y , as we have already seen before in most cases it will be because the data doesnt exist with the source. You could however PM me and I can double check it when I have time.

Thanks once again for all the feedback and I hope this will be more joy to use.

For those interested in viewing the code its here.

Bugtracker is here.

Finally, Im being honest when I say this took me some sleepless nights to come up with, I dont do this for a living, but the least you could do for me besides thanking me for posting this , is to help me vote this up to extras in case it brings you some joy to use it.
I would really appreciate that. Thanks.

You got the wrong flag on SE(Sweden), otherwise, nice work. Also, updating to the newest firmware got rid of the lag in the channel list, but the program listing lags more Also it doesn't seem to handle UTF-8 correct(or the language used by the Swedish source), I get blocks instead of å,ä and ö.

Also, you can't vote for this package right now:
"Warning: Promotion of Qt 4.6 based applications is blocked due to possible conflicts with upcoming Maemo 5 releases. See this post for more information."

@krk969: for me this app will be usable if one can update several
channels/favorites for one or several days at once, a workaround
for this would be sufficient. here is what i wish to imitate: buying a tv
magazine, looking for the program for a complete week, choosing
some good movies etc. and marking them.

nevertheless, i am impressed by your work!

@ToJa92
You can vote for it. I just did.

By the way is there some setting that I need to do with Sky to make the sms recognise who I am. I know there must be as it cant just associate me with my box.
