[mythtv-users] Trying to get ninemsn grabber working

[ffrr]

I got the latest ninemsn grabber from http://www.immir.com/tv_grab_au 
(version 1.4) and finally found all the bits it needs to run. 

I configured a new video source in mythtv_setup.
I changed my card to use the new source
I altered the chanels to use the new IDs

When I ran  mythfilldatabase,

$ mythfilldatabase

----------------- Start of XMLTV output -----------------
2005-09-21 19:19:54.704 New DB connection, total: 3
grabbing 7 days into /tmp/mythKJprMy



...and it just sits there.  A zero length file is created as 
/tmp/mythKJprMy,  but no data appears, and the script never completes.

What to do now....?
