OK that link helps. I was not running the config under mythtv user, so
there is one problem.

I'm still unclear whether the config-file name in the command in the wiki
under heading "Run the configuration"

     tv_grab_xx_xxxxxx --configure --config-file $HOME/.mythtv/YYYY.xmltv

should be the same as the config-file name under heading "Setup with
tv_grab_zz_sdjson_sqlite"

     tv_grab_zz_sdjson_sqlite --manage-lineups --config-file
$HOME/.mythtv/SD.xmltv

I ask this because the wiki says "The value YYYY in the configuration file
name corresponds to the Video Source Name", but then the later command
suggests using SD.xmltv. This could mean they are supposed to be separate
files.

So in other words, if my source is hdpvr should the first command be

     v_grab_zz_sdjson_sqlite --configure  --config-file
$HOME/.mythtv/hdpvr.xmltv

or

     v_grab_zz_sdjson_sqlite --configure  --config-file
$HOME/.mythtv/SD.xmltv

? If the former, then do I also need to run the first command again as

     v_grab_zz_sdjson_sqlite --configure --config-file
$HOME/.mythtv/ota.xmltv

(ota is my second source) and go through the later config steps for that
too?
