[mythtv-users] How to dump raw EPG from SchedulesDirect

[Frank Feuerbacher]

I want to confirm that Schedules Direct data includes "Descriptive Video 
Service" aka "Audio Description" for programs that contain it. I think I 
saw somewhere where I could run the grabber directly and save the output 
to a file, but I am not finding it now. Perhaps I should learn to use 
XMLTV directly?

I think that Mythtv does not have the ability to use the "Descriptive 
Video Service" tag since the "CC" tag seems to be contained in a column 
in the database and I don't see any column that looks like "Descriptive 
Video Service". Still, I might be able to right a script to detect this 
myself. I want this so that I can capture the SAP channel during 
encoding with HandBrake and tag the recording so that I know it is there 
when I watch it in XBMC (or myth).

Thanks for any pointers.
