Hi.
I've configured mythtv with a videosource listing "Holland" so
mythfilldatabase would use tv_grab_nl, which it did the first time around
(using --manual).
However, when I tried to re-run it today (I've not put it in cron yet) I get
errors because after the first attempt using tv_grab_nl it defaults back to
tv_grab_na. (which is neither installed nor relevant) See output below.

I tried to do a quick and dirty workaround in symlinking tv_grab_nl to
tv_grab_na which seems to work, although I now have a mess in the database
with all kinds of duplicate channelnumbers. But not to worry.
Other than this error above, I deperately need some documentation on how to
fill the database when you're NOT in north america. Do you need to use
--manual only the first time or everytime ? How do you reorder channels, or
don't you because it messes up all the EPG ? How do the EPG and the stations
correlate, by channelnumber ? By name ?
And I'm not even touching the subject of (fine)tuning...
