Hi - something has gone wrong with my listings in the last few days... I
noticed that I had listing information until 2029... somewhat more than the
usual 7-9 days!. So, I guess there's some corruption somewhere. When I run
mythfilldatabase, I get this:

2007-10-24 15:24:35.258 ----------------- Start of XMLTV output
-----------------
INFO - Downloading data from epg.pvr.geek.nz...
ERROR - Invalid data
CRITICAL - No listings data found!
2007-10-24 15:24: 36.380 ------------------ End of XMLTV output
------------------

... so I tried to go back to the setup of the video source and got this:

2007-10-24 15:34:46.731 Please wait while MythTV retrieves the list of
available channels
INFO - Downloading data from epg.pvr.geek.nz...
ERROR - Invalid data

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/bin/tv_grab_nz-py", line 212, in <module>
    doc = ElementTree.parse(StringIO(text)).getroot()
TypeError: expected a character buffer object
2007-10-24 15:34:47.943 tv_grab_nz-py --config-file
'/home/david/.mythtv/Sky.xmltv' --configure
2007-10-24 15:34: 47.943 exited with status 256
2007-10-24 15:34:52.859

Can someone help me solve this please?
