[mythtv-users] tv_grab_dvb and MythTV

[Derek Conniffe]

Hi Everyone,

I have successfully installed a Nexus-S card into my MythTV box (to 
receive BBC channels from the Astra2D satellite - previously I've only 
been receiving RF channels with a PVR 350).  I must say the Nexus-S in 
and PVR350 out works really well and doesn't cause any processor usage 
problems on my PIII 500Mhz MythTV box.

Anyway... I'm having trouble trying to work out how to use tv_grab_dvb 
to get a programme schedule into MythTV.  If I run "./tv_grab_dvb > 
test.xml" and look in test.xml I can see channels listed (the channels 
are named NUMBER.dvb.guide) but it only seems to detail whats on now and 
not whats on soon (like the next 24 hours or next week or whatever).

Is there a way to make tv_grab_dvb get a schedule of up-coming programmes?

Thanks for any help!

Derek

PS for my RF channels (Irish) I've been using the radiotimes XMLTV 
grabber - that works great but it doesn't have BBC3 or BBC4 in its 
listings and thats why I'm checking out the tv_grab_dvb grabber
