[mythtv-users] tv_grab_na help

Wed Aug 13 07:34:11 EDT 2003

Unfortunately, I just ran it as root, and it still does not work. I
think the error that is the major problem is the
parameterless "use IO" deprecated at
> > /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/XML/Writer.pm line 16
This is the only error I get when I run tv_grab_na --configure with some
options (see last command at bottom). mythfilldatabase tells me to run
tv_grab_na -- configure when it sees that a config file is missing; the
error before that though seems to be more important because that is what
is keeping me from being able to run tv_grab_na --configure.
Anyone one have any ideas on what I can do to fix the error above?
Thanks
Colin
