I suspect it's a complete coincidence, and the fact that datadirect has
been having problems lately is probably what's responsible.  Most MythTV
setups have a cron job that periodically runs mythfilldatabase, so it's
going to replace what's in the database with what's on the server
ocassionally anyway, and if the server's messed up at the time...
