Hi Phill,

Michael sent me the latest version of the file with patches applied. 
I will send direct to you too if you like.

Basically, the steps I then took (with Michael kindly holding my hand)
was to delete the existing tv_grab_au.conf  file from /root/.xmltv/ (I
run tv_grab_au as root) and then run the configure option on the
script (i.e tv_grab_au --configure).

I answered the questions and resulted in a config file being placed in
/root/.xmltv/ with my channels that I selected etc.

Since I originaly started using MythTv with the d1 script, I am still
using those xmltv id's in MythTV, so I had to update the
tv_grab_au.conf file from above with my existing ids.  I don't know
how best to update MythTV.

Then, I notcied that when I run mythfilldatbase, I was still
referencing some old copy of the conf file, and I found it under
/root/.mythtv named after my source name as specified in mythtvsetup
(i.e. for me 'Digital TV.xmltv').  I overwrote that file with a copy
of the tv_grab_au.conf and everything is running pretty sweet right
now.

One copy of the script coming direct to you.

Cheers,
Whytey
