[mythtv-users] EIT data for some channels not reaching the program guide.

Hello,

I've been observing how the EIT data is processed and noticed the
following:

1 - Sometimes, the active EIT scan seems to stop and the program guide
    gradually empties.  Going to Live TV for even a few seconds seems to
    unclog the system and the EIT data is then collected and processed
    again.  This is after doing a channel re-scan, so there are no
    invalid channels that caused a known error before.

2 - For this set of (OTA) channels (25.1, 25.2, 25.3) there has been no
    program data recently, but the active scan has received it, as can
    be seen from the logs below:

    So it seems that even though the data is received from the tuner, it
    never gets to the grid-style program guide.

I think the configuration is correct, there are 2 other channels that don't
get EIT data, but I never watch them and I don't know if there even is
EIT data there.  All the other channels have current EIT data.  This is
with the latest mythtv from deb-multimedia, as packaged there for wheezy.
(0.26.1+fixes20)

Does anyone know if this has been observed before?  Anything specific I
can do to help track this down further?

Thanks.

Augustine
