The earlier posted fix , getting my data from mythportal seemed to be a temporary solution.
It also seems the solution that was mentioned at Kristof Vanhertum's blog , the agent fix doesn't work anymore either.
Somewhere in the comments of that post however people start referring to mc2xml a tool to get your info (even 14 days worth of it) from a really untrustworthy source and import it amongst other tools into MythTV
No source code to be found, just a binary .. something that always scares me .. But running the thing (first time as a dummy empty user, one never knows) actually seems to give me an XML file with relevant data , to be used by mythfilldatabase.

Yes that's my actual postcode. Different postcode values will give you other alternatives such as Coditel/Integan .. so you better use the right one.
I`m not really satisfied however, it fails to recognize my already defined channels. So I seem to have something that at first sight looks like relevant data . Only my channel numbers are way way way off ..
I need to fix that asap. The only problem being that tomorrow it's Geekdinner and I`ll be spending the rest of the weekend at T-Dose hence I have no time to fix this anymore ...
Anyone got a quick fix for that ? Or will I just have to live with a weekend of non-recordings ? :)
Well.. maybe next week will be a productive one then :)
