Hi,

I have some problem with mythfilldatabase. If I run it from the command
line just as is, there is no problem. Data is fetched and has always been
stable. However, if myth itself calls mythfilldatabase to fetch program
info, it never completes. Trying to find out why it does so, I found this
in the backend log:

[...]

2005-05-16 20:48:48.179 New DB connection, total: 2

You need to configure the http cache.
Do you want to do it now? [yes,no (default=yes)] vbi: Invalid argument

Seems as mythfilldatabase calls an external program (perhaps
tv_grab_xxx??) which doesn't give mythfilldatabase the output it expects
(due to some misconfiguration).

I really can't figure out how to fix this. I run myth as root and have a 
/root/.xmltv/cache dir and a cache.conf file pointing to the cache dir.

I don't get it. What's wrong?
