I'm looking for alpha testers of a new grabber format for scheduling
data from Schedules Direct.

The data is formatted in JSON; I have patches which extend the
functionality of mythfilldatabase to read the data and insert it into
the database.

The new format allows us to specify QAM tuning information inline, and
to provide a version number and last-modified-date for each lineup, so
that an application can notify the user that the lineup has changed
and take appropriate action, like running a diff, or just accepting
the new headend information as "reality".

Please see the post at
http://forums.schedulesdirect.org/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=1312 for
additional information, and post your questions / comments in the
Schedules Direct forum.

Thanks.
