Just an added note to this:  I just discovered that I can see the
xmltvid in my lineup on the schedules direct website (by hovering over
the channel), and the xmltvid does in fact match the xmltvid on that
channel in the database.  Isn't that what's used to tie the two
together?  I can't imagine what I could be missing there.
