It might sound like a strange question, but my cable provider (NTL
Ireland) shows Nickelodeon on a channel up to about 5pm and then shows
Paramount Comedy on the same channel for the rest of the evening!

I was wondering if there is any way, to get mythtv to merge the XML
data for these two channels and show Nickelodeon data before a certain
time and Paramount data after ?

I think you could implement it in two different ways:

1. Create a script which takes the output from your xmltv grabber and joins the two channels to one.

2. Place them as separate channels, but with the same frequency and write a script which deletes all programme entries for the time frames where the channel is not being broadcastet. This could probably be written as a general script, which takes three parameters: Channel id, start time and end time. Then run the script on each channel immediately after mythfilldatabase.
