> Restore the database before you adjust any settings that are stored in

> older database schema, the first program to read the database and

> not worry if the first run of mythtv-setup or mythbackend takes ages
> before it is ready, because it will be taking that time doing the

The mythtv-setup you refer to is the utlity in the menus:  
System->Administration->MythTV Backend Setup  correct?
Not a script?
