[mythtvnz] Importing XMLTV File

[Daniel Hughes]

I noticed after running mythfilldatabase to import my xmltv file that
the +1 channels didn't work.

When I go to the channel editor these channels don't have an XMLTV ID, and
the box for entering it is 'disabled'? I can't navigate to it so I can't
set it to match the id in the xmltv file.

I wonder if this is because I havn't set an XMLTV grubber in the Video
Sources, but like I said, there isn't an option for one that matches So
I've currently got it set to 'Over-the-Air gude (EIT)'
