hello
i have a central shared folder on my network which contains all the current tv listings in xmltv format. (thanks to the great xmltv software which grabs it off the net)
is there a way to read this file over the network within python, e.g:
xmldata = self.readfile("smb://user:password@computer/tv/listings.xml")
??
it doesn't seem to work, i get 'file not found'. (but i remember the author of the mythtv scripts saying that he had a workaround?) or could it be added into the current python implementation?
any help appreciated!

ps: currently, i get it to auto-ftp the listings to the xbox, but this is a hassle.
