Initial Comment:
I previously filed the bug at https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=424135&aid=3419121&group_id=39046, not realizing that I was using an old version (my distro upgraded the package but I was using my own locally installed version. Oops). Sorry about that.

After removing my old version and making sure that I'm using the new build,grabbing from telkku.com is still failing. After it failed I commented out all of the channels except one. It still failed (as you can see below).

Message:
In the last few days telkku.com has shown major stability problems: it
accepts all HTTP requests but then randomly doesn't answer them. I.e. the
grabber fails with a HTTP status code of 500.

This is no bug in the grabber, but with telkku.com. Until the site is
fixed I suggest to switch to another source.

Message:
FYI: I've committed a workaround for www.telkku.com's problems to the CVS.
URL fetching is now wrapped in a 20 second timeout and timed-out URL
fetches are retried up to 5 times. This seems to be good enough to avoid
grabber run aborts when I tested them on my mythtv system. Grabber runs are
unfortunately much slower now, due to the waiting introduced by the failed
attempts.

The workaround of course can't do anything in case of a total
www.telkku.com site failure, like the one that occurred on Monday morning,
10-Oct-2011, between 05:30 and 07:30 +0300 (at least).
