I used this in the UK
/usr/bin/tv_grab_zz_sdjson --output sd.xml
/usr/bin/mythfilldatabase --sourceid 3 --file --xmlfile sd.xml
/usr/bin/mythfilldatabase --sourceid 5 --file --xmlfile sd.xml

3 and 5 where freesat dvb-s and dvb-s2 channels, I was going to get a 
dvb-s2 card but never did.

Now in Oz and use
/usr/bin/tv_grab_zz_sdjson --output SD.xml
/usr/bin/mythfilldatabase --sourceid 8 --file --xmlfile SD.xml

(Historical reasons for this. I had a broken xmltv install that was 
unfixable without an upgrade, LinHes hangover. So the tv_grab_zz_sdjson 
was on another box)

I ran the following first:
/usr/bin/tv_grab_zz_sdjson --configure
and removed a whole load of channels in
tv_grab_zz_sdjson.conf
I think had to edit the channels in mythtv using the web gui to assign 
channel numbes.
I had been using EIT but it is so appallingly bad in Oz I went to SD 
again when I saw it was available.
