Yes, I am testing out a fix for this now.

Looking at the script, it will probably be some work.  Note that I am
definitely opposed to having mythtv mess with the xmltv config file at all.
Look at the way that tv_grab_na does it, and make tv_grab_uk do that, and it
should be straightforward to add support to mythtv's setup.
