tv_grab_skane.sh

Wrapper for XMLTV grabbers tv_grab_dk and tv_grab_se_swedb to make MythTV use program data from both. This is useful if you have access to both Swedish and Danish channels.

Usage/Installation

  1. Check where tv_grab_dk, tv_grab_se_swedb and tv_cat reside on your system. If anywhere else than /usr/bin, then change the definition of XMLTVBINDIR in tv_grab_skane.sh.
  2. Make sure that tv_grab_skane.sh is called by MythTV. Since MythTV only accepts a fixed list of XMLTV grabbers we have to fool MythTV that tv_grab_skane.sh is one of those grabbers. If your XMLTV binaries aren't installed in /usr/local/bin, then make a symlink from e.g. /usr/local/bin/tv_grab_no to tv_grab_skane.sh. Make sure /usr/local/bin is before XMLTVBINDIR in your PATH.
  3. Then configure MythTV to use the appropriate grabber, i.e. tv_grab_no if you followed the example. MythTV will then configure the grabber. The configuration consists of two files, tv_grab_dk.conf and tv_grab_se_swedb.conf in ${HOME}/.mythtv/.
