"Sorry for the delay! Work craziness."
No problem, I did think I was talking to myself for a while.
There doesn't seem to be many people using Mythtv in Ireland, this
board is soo quiet.
"Do you enter the icon URL on the channel settings page?
Yup, you enter them in the Channel Editor of the mythtvsetup program. I
believe the xmltv grabbers are supposed to help take care of getting
them and the rest, but I don't know any of the specifics about how/if
this works."
The grabber got all of my icons when it downloaded the guide data.
I have since gotten the EPG to work, but I was having a problem getting
mythfilldatabase to run without errors. I found out on another forum that,
on Mythdora mythfilldatabase runs as the root a/c, and when it looks for
the <videosource>.xmltv file in /root/.mythtv and doesn't find it there,
it throws back an error and stops. So, I copied my <videosource>.xmltv
file to /root/.mythtv and it ran and downloaded all the program data.
A great relief when after 20 or 30 times trying to get it to work, you see
the program download all the data.
So Channel 6 isn't provided by the radio times. How come although I've tuned
it in, now (after EPG), when I go through the channels it
has diappeared, along with City?
I am currently trying to write a guide for setting up the EPG on Mythdora.
When I get it done I'll post the link.
