[mythtv-users] Can't grab Schedules from within mythtv

I'm installing an HDHomeRun Prime. I have the prime configured and I can 
view TV through HDHomeRunGUI.

My mythtv is on Opensuse 12.2 with mythtv 0.25. I followed the 
instructions here:
http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Silicondust_HDHomeRun_Prime

I used to use Schedules Direct for SD progamming, so I have it now 
configured for digital cable.

When I try to connect using the internal grabber it fails with what 
looks like a login issue.

I can login to Schedules Direct through the website, so I know my 
login/password is correct.

I found someone said they switched to xmltv grabber and that worked for 
them.

I installed the xmltv grabber. It shows up in mythtv-setup as an option, 
but it also fails to login (shows me that as the error).

If I run xmltv manually in an xterm, I can successfully grab the lineup 
from Schedules Direct. ie:
/usr/bin/X11/tv_grab_na_dd --configure --config-file ./tv_grab_na_dd.conf

Any suggestions? Sorry if this is a known issue and I didn't find it.

Thanks and Merry Christmas.

James
