[mythtv-users] mythfilldatabase trying to contact schedulesdirect even when "use EIT only" set

[A. F. Cano]

Hi,

I've had very spotty program guide data.  Furtheremore, when starting
the backend and at random times (more than once every 24 hours, as the
docs say) I see network activity.  So I start nethogs and see that it's
mythfilldatabase.  Wireshark points out it's trying to contact
schedulesdirect and getting "unauthorized" replies.  No surprise, since
I haven't contracted with them.  The surprising part is that even with
"use EIT only" and "never" use quick tuning, per the directions here:
https://tweakingmythtv.wordpress.com/2011/01/08/mythtv-eit-data-not-working/
it is still happening.

Does anyone have any suggestions? Is this a known bug?  Any workarounds?
Did I forget setting something somewhere?  By the way, I thought that
this was myth 0.25, but it's been upgraded by the packaging system to
0.26.1+fixes20 from deb-multimedia.  I suppose that accounts for the
fact that now the frontend hangs when I attempt to exit.  Instead I have
to "kill <PID>", twice.  It succeeds the second time.

Thanks!
