[mythtv-users] mythfilldatabase --manual and tv_grab_nl

[Andrej van der Zee]

Hi,

Thanks for your reply.

I found out that tv_grab_nl has changed from 7 days to
only 3 days of grabable channel info. Passing the
argument --days 3 to tv_grab_nl also solved the
problem at the price of loosing 4 days of info. 

Greets,

Andrej
