 Guide ratings from tv_grab_uk_rt are in multiples of 0.2 (0, 0.2, 0.4,
 0.6, 0.8 and 1), but
 [source:/trunk/mythtv/libs/libmythtv/programinfo.cpp#L647 programinfo.cpp]
 multiplies them by 4, giving odd guide ratings for shows. Should there be
 a check for the data source somewhere around line 639 to multiply the
 guide rating by 5 for data from the UK RadioTimes grabber, and 4 for all
 others so the displayed rating is an integer, rather than multiples of 0.8
 as they are at the moment?

 Are there other grabbers that provide ratings as multiples of 0.2?

 I may have picked the wrong root cause of the issue here, perhaps the
 grabber is producing the less-useful numbers. I'm no C programmer, hence
 not submitting a patch of my own.
