[mythtvnz] EPG-only mapping

[Andrew Richards]

OK thanks for the suggestion guys, sounds good. I don't have a myth 
system to play with at the moment but I assume epgsnoop basically pulls 
the data off the sat and  puts it into a  xml file for  mythfilldatabase 
to use? 

If so I agree that is best, gets the setup of this out of myth and 
allows perfect flexibility. Appreciate all your help, not really sure 
how this got so off topic but oh well. I will tackle this at some stage 
when I come back to myth.

Cheers all
