[mythtv-users] mythfilldatabase not updating since last week's boot

[Barry Martin]

OK, thanks for being patient with the interruption here.

Continuing with this (the above suggestion) -- didn't make any 
difference.  Have one source, 'Antenna' so  just the one screen to enter 
the usenrname and password for SchedulesDirect.  This time got brave and 
clicked <Finish> - - the "pc:52722" field had repopulated itself when I 
went back in to check.  Unfortunately mythfilldatabase is still 
myth-not-filling-the-database.  (I know: don't give up my day job to 
become a comedy writer. <g>)


Did notice if I do mythtv-setup at Terminal, open 2. Capture Cards, 
select a card (such as [ DVB : /dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0 ] the next 
screen lists:
     DVD device:    /dev/dbv/adapter0/frontend0
     Frontend ID:  Could not get card info for card 
/dev/dvb/adaper0/frontend0 Subtype:        Unknown error

I think this is a 'normal error' after configuration as seem to remember 
reading about this problem about a year ago.  The cards are being found 
and recordings are occurring, and yes, I am sort of grasping at straws 
to try to give some clues.


OK, another WAG.  From the above test:
At terminal:    mythtv-setup
     mysql: [Warning} Using a password on the command line interface can 
be insecure.
     status: Name "com.ubuntu.Upstart" does not exist
     Gtk-message: GtkDialog mapped without a transient parent. This is 
discouraged.
     Gtk-message: GtkDialog mapped without a transient parent. This is 
discouraged.  <-- repeated

...OK: the 'mysql' and 'status' lines are displayed and then the GUI for 
card configuration appears (with the overlay about the backend is running).

..TIA!
Barry
