[mythtv-users] Still setting up XMLTV

Okay, that was very helpful.  Now this is my config file:

database=/home/mythtv/.xmltv/SchedulesDirect.DB
lineup=USA-CO68798-X
3rdparty-metadata=disabled
mythtv-categories=enabled
station-logo-order=

Now when I run mythfilldatabase it gets stuck on this line

2021-07-11 12:38:34.545764 I  XMLTV config file is:
/home/mythtv/.mythtv/SD.xmltv

It just sits there for hours until finally I get a message:
Killed
and it goes back to command prompt.

Any ideas now?

Lloyd
