I didn't do anything other than download the file, unzip it, update
the XMLT channel IDs so that they matched what I have in MythTV and
then ran mythfilldatabase on that file.

I haven't noticed any extra info even though I did select the "full"
file which contains more detail. I guess Michael Immir Smith's grabber
gets its data from the same 9MSN source so you wouldn't expect there
to be much difference.

I have attached the script and config files I use which allow me to
choose between different program data sources. If the main source is
down/broken than I can just change 1 line in a shell script and it
will download from another one. This has proven very handy in the last
few months. This version includes supoprt for the "dvbowners" source.

Regards,
Phill
