Hi Folks,

I'm having strange problems, but more of that later.

I have/had a manual program in for the full morning weather forecast. It 
goes in just fine. It shows up in the "Upcoming" listings and all looks 
well. Then come the day, it has vapourised. I put it back in again and 
it goes away again.

A good look through the logs turns up:

It used to work just fine under a WinTV card with downloaded scheduling. 
The difference is that now I am getting ITV1 through a DVB-T card and 
the schedule through the DVB-T EPG.

I wonder if the DVB EPG transcribing code needs a clause to protect the 
manual scheduling, similar to that which must already be in the 
mythfilldatabase code.

Keep up the good work guys
