Initial Comment:
I can't get tvtime to open. I changed a setting on tvtime and it closed when I try to re open it it closes again. I tried taking the program off and downloading it again. I am very new to ubuntu and an not sure how to make this tvtime program work. The program was working very well and I was looking through the setting when it shut down.
Any help would be greatly appreicated

Hello all, I have the same problem, and solved it - unplugging the
USB-Logitech-webcam.

HISTORY: Initial start point

Under Ubuntu 9.10 64 bit, everything worked well. Then upgraded to Ubuntu
10.4 RC 1, and tvtime started and quit immediately again. 

I removed and reinstalled tvtime, to no avail.

Finally, I did a terminal verbose, and it came to my attention that my
external USB-Logictech webcam was listed. Unplugging the webcam, and tvtime
works again.

Also when re-plugging in the webcam _during_ the use of tvtime, no
problem. However, the next time tvtime would not start again until the cam
is unplugged.

My tvttime-v output:

Open a terminal and run:
$ tvtime -v

If you can tell what's wrong, try editing ~/.tvtime/tvtime.xml.
If not, post the output and we might help.
