Hi guys

I am new to python. I have just installed python yesterday for my mythtv
project. I found a site
here<https://sayap.com/blog/2008/12/30/mythtv-s-xmltv-grabber-for-malaysia-channels>for
getting channel listing grabber to get channel for Malaysia for my
mythtv box. but I get these. I don't  know what it means

Any insight is very mush appreciated as I am very new to python.
