"converter box" is the only hint that you're located in the USA and
probably using ATSC. This does matter since MythTV has different code for
different digital TV standards carrying EIT data worldwide.
Yes, I'm very much using ATSC as the source for EIT. I'm in a suburb of
Minneapolis, MN. I see this problem on many channels, so it's not a
problem with one channel. Perhaps I need to do some database queries to
evaluate the data more closely.
These don't appear to be from adjacent programs. For example. "The Late
Late Show With Craig Ferguson" airs on WCCO-DT at 11:37PM April 13th and
has a description of "When a priest comes forward with a person's
confession related to the death of a 9-year-old boy, police reopen the
case, and the boy's uncle becomes a prime suspect. (CC)" This is the
description of a "Cold Case" episode. "Cold Case" airs on Sundays on
WCCO-DT (4.1), but reruns also air on KSTCDT (45.1). Because of this I
can't even be sure that the wrong descriptions are coming from shows on
the same channel. In this example, the program that comes before
Ferguson's show is "Late Show With David Letterman." The program that
follows is "Oprah Winfrey." "Cold Case" is not on any of the other
channels at the same time as Ferguson's show.
What other information can I provide?
