[mythtvnz] tv_grab_nz-py

[Barry Clearwater]

I installed elementtree and the script ran nicely although I don't know
what it did.
I have the problem at the moment that all my listings (no matter which
method I use) are 12 hours out.
I've changed the setting for offset in mythtv-backend to either auto or
none without any change.
My clock is set correctly so I'm a bit puzzled.

I'm python agnostic, so all I'm doing is assuming that this script is a
localisation of the other tv_grab scripts that come with or for mythtv,
so should be able to be integrated with myth - correct?

Is it directly updating the mysql tables?

Sorry for the heap of questions, Im trying to learn.
