the log excerpt shows a usage of minus that will not lead to a good match, but there are others where the minus really is part of the title

I'm moving this elsewhere, as there is really very little sensible way to make this work. I don't know of any instance where having a dash as the first character in a subtitle would be correct, so it would be better to handle this as sanitization when initially importing the guide data.
Note: See
TracTickets for help on using
tickets.

The first character of the subtitle is '-', which is not being handled properly by the command line parser in ttvdb.py.
