Television Listings and XMLTV talks about XMLTV, a format for providing do-it-yourself TiVo PCs with a TV listings.

It's a Perl XML-based solution by Edward Avis that many of the TV-on-your-PC packages like Freevo and MythTV support. With support for screen-scraping data for many country's cable systems, XMLTV can take various sources and create a consistent stream of XML.

If you have an iCal-compliant viewer (like Mozilla) you can even convert this to a calendar.
