After having my myth box up and running for a couple months now I am experiencing my first problem. That's not bad at all....

Anyway, here is my problem. For some reason, when I bring up a channel listing, all the channel numbers are listed on the left hand side but all the detail data about the channels says "Unknown". Why is this data missing? I can see my previously recorded listings fine. I am also able to access the internet from that machine.

I tried to do a mythfilldatabase --update but got the following messages:

brian@mythtv:~/.mythtv $ mythfilldatabase --update
QTime::setHMS Invalid time 28:00:00.000
QDate::setYMD: Invalid date 2935-93-02

Failed to fetch some program info


I went and looked for /home/brian/.mythtv/cable.xmltv but it is indeed not there. Why would this file all of a sudden disappear? What should I do to get my channel listings back? Thanks in advance for any information.

Ok, I have spent the last 5 hours working on this issue. Thank you cesman for pointing me in the right direction. I have followed the bellow instructions to a T and continue to get the infamous "Unknown" message in the program guide. There were no problems when I followed the steps below... Any idea what I may be missing? Thanks

Excellent work indeed! Modified for KnoppMyth:

1. Register at labs.zap2it.com using code 'TGYM-ZKOC-BUTV' (Letter O, not zero)

2. Record your new username and password and choose the proper lineup and channels.

3. tv_grab_na_dd --configure(answer the questions)

4. su(enter your root password)

5. mv /etc/cron.daily/mythtv-backend ~

6. mythbackup

7. exit

8. Determine your sourceid(s) using webmin or
Code:
mysql -u mythtv -pq2dUSRDq mythconverg
mysql> select * from videosource;


9. quit

10. Using one of the scripts in Ashlar's original post. Save it in /usr/local/bin/ as mythtv-backend

11. crontab -e
Code:
0 6 * * * /usr/local/bin/mythtv-backend


12. /usr/local/bin/mythtv-backend

Thanks again to Ashlar for the original post on the forum.

BTW, I just connected to my mythconverg database and looked inside of the "program" table and discovered that the table is empty... Why didn't the table get updated when the "mythtv-backend " script ran? Thanks.
