[mythtv-users] mythfilldatabase: can't run it from cron

[James Pattinson]

Nice one, that seems to work so far - but 
http://xmltv.radiotimes.com/xmltv/channels.dat is 404'ing for me now! 
I'm sure it was working a few days ago when I last grabbed. Anyone 
confirm it's working for them at the moment?

Thanks
james
