Well, this is weird to me.  I discovered if I drop the database, do not 
restore, setup from scratch, everything works fine (well no history, 
etc, so not really fine, but works).

I tried restoring the database again, deleting all capture cards, and 
all video sources, but still hangs in mythv-setup when fetching lineups 
from SchedulesDirect. Setup terminal says
DatadDirect Error Failed to get data (wget=http-username....

I guess I will try dropping the database, setting up from scratch and 
see if I can partially restore the database.
