Steve, This is great! just one small problem. Upon execution, it grabs the show info just fine from TV.com, but the query fails with a message of DBD::mysql::st execute failed: Unknown column 'basename' in 'field list' at /root/tvgrabber-0.5.pl line 571, STDIN line 1. apparently basename is a column in your mythconverg.recorded table, but not mine (latest knoppmyth) Did you add the basename column to your db, or am I just using a different version than you?

I'll look into it further to see if I can do a db version check. as well, I can do some more intelligent name parsing if anyone has another format they'd like to use. -- Steve ___ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users

This is a column in the SVN version of Myth related, I believe, to the file extension changes where MPEG files carry the MPG extension instead of NUV Kevin ___ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
