I see something similar from time to time. All of a sudden, myth will stop
scheduling anything beyond a certain date. Recording schedules look OK but there
are programs in the guide that just aren't being picked up.
If I leave things alone, several days before the missing programs are due the
scheduler suddenly begins to pick them up again. I have no idea why this
happens, but I haven't lost anything yet because of it.
