I did that before I learned of the 'auto' setting. The UK grabber is all
set up for the two HLS channels and when mythfilldatabase ran it put in two
weeks of info at 5 hours off. Now that I've set it to 'auto', how do I get
mythfilldatabase to overwrite the guide info that's already in there?

On a slightly separate note, what user should mythtv-setup and
mythfilldatabase be run as? I'm not sure if this is a Mythbuntu issue, but
if you run System->MythTV Backend Setup from their desktop menu it runs it
as loginuser and not mythtv and the xmltv grabber errors out (the Schedules
Direct for my OTA runs fine).

Should mythtv-setup and mythfilldatabase always be run as the mythtv user?
