Hello. After setting up MythTV on my FreeBSD machine, I activated automatic mythfilldatabase runs from mythfronted, "Utilities / Setup", Setup, General, and the last setup screen. I didn't change any paramaters there at first, amd found out that automatic mythfilldatabase runs would fail constantly. Running mythfilldatabase manually as the 'mythtv' user worked every time. I'm using the xmltv grabber (tv_grab_no) since we don't have Datadirect here. The solution was to add this in the "mythfilldatabase Arguments" field: --graboptions "--config-file /home/mythtv/.mythtv/TV.xmltv" notice that the grabber options are quoted. Why "TV.xmltv"? Because my input is named "TV". HTH -- Regards, Torfinn Ingolfsen, Norway
