[mythtv-users] re: mythfilldatabase only collects the next days sched. ?

[Kevin J. Slater]

You're not getting ppv information or something are you? I had the same 
problem. Turned out that I was separately fetching PPV information which 
was going out 10 days. mythfilldatabase does a check to see if it needs 
to get future data, so if it sees something in the program guide that is 
further than 7 days in the future, it only bothers to get tomorrow's 
data (to make sure it's up to date?). It could be something different, 
but that's what I found after much head scratching (and a few questions 
to the list)..
