[mythtv-users] Switching from SchedulesDirect to EIT

[Tom Harris]

My MythTV usage is now entirely for broadcast OTA channels, and I was
attempting to switch my guide data to be EIT sourced.   But, I haven't had
any luck in retrieving guide data.   Is there some trick to using EIT?

I'm on MythTV 0.28, and my tuner is an HDHomeRun Prime

- I changed the schedule source in mythtv-setup
- I marker the channels "useonairguide" in mythweb settings.

I guess mythfilldatabase isn't used for EIT?   When I run it, it exits
quickly and one of the lines output is:  "2019-03-11 12:38:10.572008 I
Source 1 configured to use only the broadcasted guide data. Skipping."

I do see backend log entries which appear to be trying to retrieve EIT data:
mythbackend.log:Mar 11 12:38:00 mythbackend: mythbackend[4306]: I EIT
eitcache.cpp:99 (delete_in_db) EITCache: Deleting old cache entries from
the database
