You have probably not configured the grabber correctly from within
MythTV*. If you configured the grabber manually on the commandline,
you should copy the config file created (could be
/home/chris_jones/.xmltv./tv_grab_uk_rt.conf, but check) to
/home/chris_jones/.mythtv/mollcons.xmltv and ensure that for all of
the channels listed in the XMLTV config file, you have a channel on
that video source in the MythTV database with the corresponding XMLTV
ID associated.

* it can be a pain to do this (especially with digital channels), but
we are working on simplifying it

Cheers,
Nick
