[mythtv-users] Mythtv 24.1 - MythFillDatabase filling the database

I have been using MythTV on another system successfully for 2 years.  The
machine is aging, it is running Fedora 12, and doesn't have a lot of horse
power (commercial scanning, podcasting is done on a secondary backend that
I want to re-purpose).  A couple of weeks ago, I decided to build a new
machine and eventually migrate from the old machine.  

After going through the Mythtv-Setup to define the General, Capture Cards,
etc I dropped to commandline and ran 'mythfilldatabase' expecting it to
populate the database with TV Listings from Schedules Direct.

I have been trying to get MythFillDatabase to populate the database on the
new machine.  I have even tried dumping the 24.1 database, export my
current working MythDora installation, importing it, upgrading the
database, re-configuring to match the current system, and run
mythfilldatabase -- nothing is working.

On my other machine, Mythfilldatabase took 9 minutes to download and
populate this morning -- so I don't think it is a network connection issue.
While writing this email, I started mythfilldatabase again (see results
below) [yes I am running mythfill as root -- my user id doesn't change the
outcome]
