[mythtv-users] RE: Filling mythbackend

[Morten Rønseth]

Hi Dan,

The first thing I tried was "mythfilldatabase --configure". It gave me 
"illegal option: '--configure' (use --help)" so I tried running 
"tv_grab_no --configure" instead, which generated the proper 
"~/.xmltv/tv_grab_no.conf" file. Then I ran "tv_grab_no --output 
~/.mythtv/Channels.xmltv" to get the channel listing, but when running 
mythfilldatabase after the command finished, it complained about the 
file being in the wrong format :-(
So there I am.

Thanks anyway.


Cheers,


-Morten
