Hello,
I followed the instructions stated in this thread: http://mysettopbox.tv/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=138 but still, it doesn't work for me. Or maybe it does since doing a fresh install, it now looks up information concerning my cable provider.

But once I finish the setup of the four steps, I get the following error (even when I try to use mythfillupdate):

Fetching data for Thu Nov 27 2003
------------------Start of XMLTV output -----------------
Parameterless "use IO" deprecated at /usr/share/perl5/XML/Writer.pm line 16
using config file /home/mythtv/.mythtv/Adelphia Net.xmltv

/usr/bin/tv_grab_na; Config file /home/mythtv/.mythtv/Adelphia_Net.xmltv does not exist, run me with --configure

----------------- End of XMLTV output -------------------
Error in 1:1; unexpected end of file
Failed to fetch some program info

Any thoughts? I setup the video source info as below:
3. Video Sources
Video Source Name: Adelphia_Net
XMLTV listings grabber: North America (xmltv)
tv_grab_na configuration
ZIP/postal code: xxxxx
Provider: Adelphia Net

And if I try /usr/bin/tv_grab_na --configure, I get the following error when it tryies to get channel list:

zap2it form has select 'displayType' we don't have a value for at /usr/share/perl5/XMLTV/ZapListings.pm line 630, <STDIN> line 4.
failed to get grid form

Just something else to go on..

I don't know what the specific issues is with XMLTV(on the road at the moment)....I suggest the following.
As the user mythtv:cd ~/.mythtv
rm -fr *.xmltv channels
mythtv-setup
yes to second question
Once you are finished
As root:/etc/cron.daily/mythtv-backend

Hmmmm.. Didn't work.. I think I'm just going to try and do the steps and install Myth using RH 9 or some other distro..

Post subject:  Don't let the tv-grab thing send you to RH-based Myth.

Installing Myth on RH or Gentoo or another
non-Knoppmyth distribution is seriously far,
far harder than the Knoppmyth method. I
really suggest you try a little harder to fix tv-grab
on KM before chucking for a diffferent distro.

The MythTV mailing list has a lot of information
on fixing tv-grab. You can search the list archives
at:
