Will - just want to say a BIG thank you from all us Aussies for doing
this. This is something which we've needed for some time as the whole
grabber scenario is a bit precarious here, so this is a very
significant contribution you've made. I think hooking MythTV into the
OzTivo community is the best long term solution. Aussies - we'll need
to give something in return, though, and get into the habit of 
updating some of the listings ourselves. Can't just leave it to the
OzTivo folks.

I'm going to give this a go 1st chance I get.

Thanks again, Will.
Phill
