[mythtvnz] Possible to mix-and-match Freeview EIT and XML TV EPG data?

[Matt Poff]

Just to clarify here, specifically I'm trying to find out:

Is it possible to draw listings from DVB-S EIT and XMLTV epg sources   
and specify on a per channel level?

Under the Video Source>DVB source settings screen in the mythtv-setup  
screen there is  checkbox whether to use EIT data - what happens if  
this is selected when the XMLTV grabber is also selected?

Will the "Use on air guide" setting on the channel configuration  
screen override any XMLTV source with EIT data? If not what does it do?

Why, when I have the XMLTV ID set for my setting for TV One (Freeview  
callsign) to tv1.sky.co.nz do the listings now not update to show  
specific BBC World programming but they did when I first installed the  
grabber?

/home/[mythtvuser]/.xmltv/tv_grab_nz-py.conf

All channels disabled except TV1

channel!tv2.sky.co.nz
channel!tv3.sky.co.nz
channel=tv1.sky.co.nz
channel!sport-highlights.sky.co.nz
channel!c4.sky.co.nz
...
