I just switched over to the new SchedulesDirect tv listing source for
my Freevo 1.x installation, and I thought I would share the steps I
took.

1.  Sign up for an account at https://www.schedulesdirect.org/ (no
need to pay yet, they give you a 7 day trial, so you can make sure you
have it all working before forking over your first $15)

2.  Add your lineup(s) and select channels (you can pull channel info
from ~freevo_user/.xmltv/tv_grab_na_dd.conf)

3.  Upgrade XMLTV to version 0.5.48 (I did this by pulling packages
from Debian Lenny, even though I'm on Etch I didn't have any problems
doing this, maybe folks with other distros can share how they managed
this)

4.  As the freevo user, run "tv_grab_na_dd --configure"

5.  As the freevo user, run "freevo tv_grab"  (or however you cron job
pulls in listings)

6.  That's it for configuration!  The channel names all stayed the
same, so I didn't have to touch my local_conf.py (you can check by
running "freevo tv_grab --query" as the freevo user).  Everything
seems to be working, so I signed up for my first three months using
PayPal.
