1 - my generated listings file does not contain season and episode numbers so ignore duplicate recordings setting does not work.
2 - any recordings previously scheduled under the Schedules Direct configuration are ignored. I had to set up new recording schedules.
It's much cleaner to use the SchedulesDirect listing provider directly.
The SD-DD service (used by tv_grab_na_dd doesn't have Season/Episode numbers as you mention.
The SD-JSON service (used by tv_grab_zz_sdjson,tv_grab_zz_sdjson_sqlite and Jellyfin) does.
If you're still blocked, disable JellyFin's SD support and open a lineup support ticket asking for the block to be removed and try one of the sdjson grabbers. Note: if you don't disable Jellyfin SD access first, you'll get blocked in a few minutes (5000 login failures!)

Thank you for the tip to use tv_grab_zz_sdjson.

Sad to see the Schedules Direct issue has reemerged after apparent resolution.

Up to this point there has not been any resolution, only the SD team did a 1-time unblock on all accounts. With the issue persisting, all accounts were locked out once again after a day or two of the failing cached credentials.

Thanks for the clarification, Dleewee

I have managed to get the populated file with guide info with SD using both tv_grab_na_dd and tv_grab_zz_sdjson, I add them to jellyfin and have them enabled for my HD Home Run devices, but when I try to map the channels, the dialog box is empty. I have another EPG I use for some IPTV that enables me to map channels, so I know the process can work on my set up. After a lot of trial and error and reading the logs, I had a permissions error. The grabber wrote the file without jellyfin having access. Once that was corrected, it all went well. I suppose as a seasoned linux user, that is where I should have started.
That said, this is a very poor workaround. At this point, I have not found a way to grab more than one lineup without deleting the the config file, and the need to modify the permissions after each update makes this more trouble than it is worth. Here is to hoping that SD and jellyfin can sort this out.
SOLUTION FOR ME:

Gives you the procedure to have multiple configurations for multiple lineups.
I am running this on linux ubuntu / mint.
Make sure that the config files are in the folder you run the command in and output the xmltv file, make sure the permissions are appropriate.
On linux you can run the grab commands in series by adding && between them.
I added a cronjob to make it run each morning at 3 am. I am hoping this automates the whole process for me and I can not worry about the plugin being fixed.
At the very least, I have one command to run to get all lineups.

Does the SD-JSON service provide more information such as Seasons and Episode numbers that were lost in the XML version?

it provides season/episode numbers.

I am hoping for a quick solution to this one. Part of the reason we use Schedules Direct is simplicity in not having to download xml files and have it automated.
