Call for testers: MythTV 0.21 port upgrade

[David La Croix]

Following up to myself, because I think I figured it out ...

I had EIT scans enabled ...   I think that the information stream
coming from the TV station was shifting the schedule ...    That's the
only process I could find that updates the schedule outside of running
mythfilldatabase.
