That’s interesting - I can confirm this behaviour on my 0.28 test backend.
Interestingly changing a different tickbox like "Wait for SEQ start header"
will stick, but "Use DVB card for active EIT scan" does not. 0.27 behaves
correctly (for me) so it appears to be something specific to 0.28.

Question for OP - after SQL update when you go back into the Recording
Options screen is the "Use DVB card for active EIT scan" tickbox ticked? If
so, if you untick at this point does it remain unticked or does it revert to
the ticked state on exit.

Something to do with the change from cardinput to capturecard tables maybe?
