Much of this work has been done already, although it's not nearly as straightforward a hack as the others I mentioned. The following thread contains a discussion about getting a Replay 3xxx unit working in Canada.

In addition to finding and parsing channel data yourself (this guy has offered in the past to share his learnings on reverse engineering the network requests made by the Replay)...
You need a line simulator and either a linux box (for noauth PPP access) or Win2K Advanced (for the extralong username used by the Replay). Or I guess you could take out the drive and modify the user name, but that's even trickier.
So depending on how adventurous you're feeling -- go find yourself an old Replay or Showstopper and get hacking.
And if you're feeling *really* adventurous, maybe you can build some generic foreign nomenclature translation hack to allow mapping from any channel guide data source to the Replay format.
