I have the full path in there as /usr/bin/mythfilldatabase, however
currently the only option I have set for the automatic run is
--dd-grab-all.

Do I have to add --logpath in there as well to get separate logs under
/var/log/mythtv?  Like I said, given that I basically get spammed with
logs from mythpreviewgen that sort of seemed strange.
