The tv_grab_sd_json grabber does not use the relatively new transmitters
API yet.  But you can enter a lineup ID to use directly.

So for example, if you click on the above you can see the first record is:
"Aberdare":"GBR-0001213-DEFAULT".  If you want to use that lineup you can
enter "GBR-0001213-DEFAULT" (without the quotes) when the configure asks
for "Lineup or Country (ISO-3166-1 alpha 3 such as USA or CAN)".
