Since when has there been a tv_grab_nz ?  I wrote my own New Zealand 
grabber a while back (scrapes listings from nzoom.com), I had to hack 
the mythfilldatabase source to use it, I just run my grabber and pipe 
the output to /tmp/TV.xml and then use my modified mythfilldatabase to 
read it in.  If you want my hacked source file lemme know and I'll mail it.
