]. Create a scheduled task that drops an XML file into the web server directory, and follow the instructions for OnTV, replacing the OnTV url with the URL of the file on your server. xmlTVNZ provides excellent listings, making use of genre colours in MythTV's EPG. Unfortunately, this program is not free (open source) software, however there it is freeware.

+Note: This has been tested and works under [Mono|http://www.mono-project.com/Main_Page], no need for the windows web server. The xmlTVNZ app is written in c#, so just get mono on your system xmltvnz.exe will work. (or mono xmltvnz.exe). Nice one mono ! (on debian apt-get mono mono-utils)

adding HOME=/home/mythtv to the top of the init script appears to solve this problem.
!!Ubuntu installation
-Notes
to refactor
:
+Add the following line
to your /etc/apt/sources.list
:
-* don
't create your first
user as
'mythtv';
the postinst
for mythtv-common wants
to do
that itself
.
-*
don't rename it just
in /etc
/passwd
. :)
-* use
the debian unstable LIRC source
, not
the ubuntu stuff
+<pre>
+deb http://deb.thehunter.ws/ breezy mythtv-stable
+</pre>
+
+Load in the GPG key:
+gpg --keyserver subkeys.pgp.net --recv-keys 3BC2083F
+gpg --export --armor 3BC2083F | sudo apt-key add -
+
+apt-get install mythtv mythplugins myththemes
+
+!Backend won
't start
+
+Have you run mythtv-setup? If you haven't, and it doesn't work, you might need to copy /etc/mythtv/mysql.txt to ~/.mythtv/mysql.txt so you can connect to the database.
+
+Make sure that you have permission for the 'mythtv'
user to write to the directory you have told it to store its video files in.
+
+You might also need to have one in /home/mythtv/.mythtv/, or else the backend will automatically try and create one. It will guess
'mythtv' as
the username and password
for the database, so if you set it
to that, it will work without having to do this. It's very broken at the moment
.
+
+!!Getting guide information
+
+Tell mythtv-setup to use the DVB grabber, and
don't load anything
in.
+
+<pre>
+sudo su - mythtv
+mkdir bin
+cd bin
+<
/pre>
+
+Edit listings.sh:
+
+<pre>
+#!
/bin/bash

+wget http
://hairy.geek.nz/epg/latest.xml.gz
+gunzip latest.xml.gz
+mythfilldatabase --file 1 7 latest.xml
+<pre>
+
+Then,
+
+<pre>
+chmod a+x listings.sh
+crontab -e
+</pre>
+
+Edit
the file to look something like this
, perhaps changing
the date so that we don't all hammer it at 5am Sunday and Wednesday:
+
