I was able to manually configure the grabber by running "tv_grab_uk_atlas
--configure" from the command line.

Moved it to /home/mythtv

ran mythfilldatabase as the mythtv user. First it grabbed my Schedules
Direct info for the North American source.

It then ran the HLS source but errored out.

1) It said it was looking for a config file called HLS.xmltv. I don't know
where that's specified or how to change it to the grabber's config file.

2) If I continue to let mythfilldatabase run at a time specified by
Schedules Direct, how do I specify the --refresh 0-99 asked for in the wiki
page for myth and metabroadcast? Do I have to make a cron entry for a
manual run for the HLS source?
