How do I add Prime to the epg data?<br>2. I want
to set up a capture card that only receives Prime via a Sky Box (I have sky box that only gives me Prime - special deal available if you do not get Prime clearly via UHF -you pay a 1 time only fee for the installation and the STB) So I need a video source which only has Prime,but I still need my other video source with all free to air channels. So the question is how do I set up different video sources using the same grabber? <br>3. Although I followed Hayden's instructions and they worked I'd really like to know how they worked. Eg what effect does the TVNZ.xmltv file have. How does the grabber use this info to grab the correct channels. Will Mythdatabase run automatically to retrieve new epg data or do I stillhave to make a setting somewhere. <br><br><br>I also want to give a big thanks to all those out there who have providede these great tools which make MyhtTv workin NZ<br><br>Cheers<br><br>Steve<br><br></div></div><br>
