If you enabled the 0.20.2 fixes build repository, then run the commands below, before upgrading to the svn version.

sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mythbuntu-gutsy.list

First you need to remove the current mythtv packages, otherwise the svn version will conflict with it.

sudo apt-get remove mythtv-*

Now do the below:

Add the apt key for the mythbuntu svn repository.

wget http://mythbuntu.org/files/EEED06D0.gpg && sudo apt-key add EEED06D0.gpg && rm EEED06D0.gpg

Now add the mirror for the mythbuntu svn repository.

echo "deb http://weeklybuilds.mythbuntu.org/mythbuntu-trunk/ubuntu gutsy multiverse universe restricted main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mythbuntu-gutsy.list

or the uk mirror:

echo "deb http://uk.weeklybuilds.mythbuntu.org/mythbuntu-trunk/ubuntu gutsy multiverse universe restricted main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mythbuntu-gutsy.list

Now update your package list.

sudo apt-get update

Now install the mythtv packages.

sudo apt-get install mythtv-*

These instructions may work for the official ubuntu distribution and other ubuntu based distributions.

Some of the instructions above are from mythbuntu’s site.

There’s no need to pay Schedules Direct, to get tv data, an easy solution is to use zap2xml.

First step is simple, go to zap2xml’s site, and download it, and then follow the instructions on there, quoted below too.

Get a free Zap2it.com TV Listings account.
Set Zap2it.com preferences:
Check “Show six hour grid” option.
Check “Show only my favorites in the grid” option.
Select all channels you want in your grid by adding them to the “My Favorites” column.
Run zap2xml with the userEmail and password options of your account.
Optionally set up a cron job to run it every day.

After you do the above, open mythtv setup, and add a new source, and make the grabber no grabber. Then go to the channel editor and remove all the channels.
