[pvrusb2] Manually pull tv listing info

Is there a method to manually pull tv listing data from the hvr-1950?

Currently, I'm quite satisfied with setting up a user cron job to record,
background task, then stop the task after a specified amount of time.

#!/bin/bash

mencoder 'dvb://KTVF DT:545028615:8VSB:65:68:4' -really-quiet -of avi -ovc copy
-oac copy -o ch11_60min-`date +%Y%m%d-%H%M`.mpg &

sleep 60m

killall mencoder # should use pidof

It'd be great if I could grab the listing data myself using bash or whatever.
Not only this, the huge MythTV prefers to grab the data 24/7 -- doing it myself, I could
opt to only capture the data for a specified amount of time.

<shrugs> ... any easy ideas?
