are you running the gui config as the same user that youre running 
mythfilldatabase with?

the gui config writes the data about your location etc., to a .xmltv 
file in the home dir for whichever user ran setup... if you run 
mythfilldatabase as a different user then the data is not read by 
xmltv... also what version of xmltv did you install?
