Re: [Freevo-users] XMLTV CRON script error

you need to configure tv_grab_na_dd. the error is telling you to run the command from the command line: tv_grab_na_dd --configure but before you do this you need to get an account from labs.zap2it.com. This is required for this particular xmltv grabber. Mike Ruelle On Sun, 2004-10-17 at 14:31,

When I build the frame for it I'm going to build in an Irman so I can control it using an IR remote. I thought about embedding buttons into one side of the frame, but there are too many keys in Freevo to really have a simple button interface. Plus with a remote I can control it from my bed, etc. B
