New description:

 MythTV protocol correctly reports 'ORIGINALAIRDATE' for a recording.
 When the Event mechanism fires a program update event, it appears to
 provide ORIGINALAIRDATE as 'now' (which seems to be the default when
 creating a new programinfo item) rather than the original airdate from the
 recorded database.

 This was originally reported as an issue with pvr.mythtv kodi front-end
 client (using 0.28) then 'worked around'.
 https://github.com/janbar/pvr.mythtv/issues/37

 I tried to find where the problem might be, but got lost in the mythtv
 code. Maybe someone here is interested and knows where to look...

Comment:

 Andrew thanks for the update.

 Not sure who to reassign this to based on the GoToDev list.
