</div>theres only one user on this box, me, everything I do is under one login.<br>
well, i just checked the permission of that directory /.mythtv/channels<br>
and its owned by root, is THAT the problem?? (theres nothing in it after<br>
I ran the icon download several times, and mythfill afterwards) hows<br>
myth setup running as a user going to write channel info to a directory<br>
it cant write to?<br></blockquote></div><br>If the user you are running as does not have write permission on ~/.mythtv/channels then it won't be able to save the icons. As root do a <br><br>chown -R [username]:[usergroup] channels <br>
<br>from the .mythtv folder then try downloading again. Obviously replace [username] and [usergroup] with whatever your username and group are.<br>
