#12 Fails to load feeds sometimes

[Anonymous]

version 2.03 Have been using PTV happily for a while, now, and all went well. Couple of weeks ago, I disconnected my PC from the internet and connected a friends PC that I'm working on for them. Changed the distro to Kubuntu (from Mandriva), added PTV and other podcast goodies. Added several feeds of interest to friend. All well.
Disconnected friends PC yesterday and reconnected my own. All not well - PTV does not seem able to find the feeds any more. Get message "Loading feeds", see regular spikes on ethernet, and count of feeds loading slowly goes up if it appears (it doesn;t always). But even after being left for hours - no actual feeds appeared. PTV does show how many gigs of space have been used for storage though.

Had a look into the hidden folders. Media files still there OK. Only one database file, where I;ve normally seen two, though - version 2 present. Tried copying this and renaming without the 2 in the name, then restarting PTV. No joy - same problems.

penguintv.db and penguintv2.db are very different databases and not compatible. I always leave the old database around just in case there are problems. If there is any output to the console (run PenguinTV from the command line) it would help.
