First make a backup of local_conf.py and then run:
freevo convert_config /path/to/local_conf.py

You will notice that VIDEO_GROUPS has changes to TV_VIDEO_GROUPS, then
when happy run:
freevo convert_config /path/to/local_conf.py -w

Quite a lot of config settings have changed (for the groupings in the
webconfig tool)

CHILDAPP_DEBUG = 1 is now:
DEBUG_CHILDAPP = 1

TV_VIDEO_GROUPS = [
   VideoGroup(vdev='/dev/video0',
      adev=None,
      input_type='composite 1',
      input_num=2,
      tuner_norm='PAL',
      tuner_type='external',
#     tuner_chanlist='',
      desc='external tuner',
      group_type='ivtv'
   )
]
