I had a problem like this - it ended up being something like what Mike said. The automatic mythfilldatabase job was being run as the root user, but the configuration file for for my xml grabber (xml_grab_au) was in /home/mythtv/.xmlttv/tv_grab_au.conf. So the mythfilldatabase being run as root would just never work.
The solution for me, was to use the --graboptions parameter thing for mythfilldatabase to pass the configuration file parameter to my tv_grab_au script. In mythtv setup (I beleive this is done via the frontend some where), I changed the bit where you specify your mythfilldatabase command from "mythfilldatabase" to "mythfilldatabase - (--graboptions "--config-file /home/mythtv/.xmltv/tv_grab_au.conf")". Worked an absolute treat.
