Since Data Direct is no longer available to MythTV users, I would like to use Schedules Direct. I am using MythTV 0.19, and I don't see any way of adding a 'XMLTVlistings grabber' (Schedules Direct is not in the list). Can this be done? I see that it's recommended that I upgrade to 0.20, but that's not available as an rpm for Mandriva 2006. I was never able to install from source, and I don't want to try this again. There were also a few things I had to configure (such as database access etc) last time I upgraded via rpm since I am using several remote frontends and I am trying to avoid this.
I was hoping there was a way I could manually add a grabber, but I am not sure how. If there is a way of running a script manually, that would be nice, but it looks like mythfilldatabase is a binary that I can't add arguments to. Anyone out there that can help?
Thanks

Data Direct is hard coded into Mythtv 0.19 so you can't change it.

I think you have to figure out how to do a screen scrape with a grabber. I've not ever tried this, so you'll probably have to hunt around for some older documentation and then try to modify it. Although from this page, the XMLTV listings sound like they were discontinued in the US.

So you might just have to try to build from source or find an RPM. Worst case is to backup your database and then reinstall Mythtv on a newer version of Mandriva....
