When you get your files ready to run as the mythtv user, and you can log in as him, log in and run 'mythtvfilldatabase --dd-grab-all' from the command prompt to verify things are working.  That should tell you if everything is set up correctly.  You may need that extra switch that Gary mentioned earlier if your backend has limited memory.

If you look at the Wiki it mentions that —dd-grab-all is for DataDirect only.  So I don’t know if it applies to XMLTV on SD. 

Anyway, I logged in as mythtv user and ran mythfilldatabase —dd-grab-all and it ran without error.  I checked system status on a FE and the Listings Status shows the results of that run and Results: Successful.  So I think we have it fixed.

It would be nice to know if I should change the mythtv-setup to use the command "mythfilldatabase —dd-grab-all” as the normal everyday update command since I’m now using XMLTV??

Thanks,

Jim A
