  Thanks for that, I new it would be something simple, I had been 
looking at the site you pointed me to, but did not know what to add.
  I have another question on  change the scrip to up date.
  The original script is for first time install so to update the data in 
the guide  is  this correct

  mythfilldatabase --file --sourceid 1 --xmlfile freeview.xml --only-update-guide
