I am not using EIT intentionally.  If I go into mythtv-setup and navigate
to:
Listings Grabber > Perform EIT Scan
the box is unchecked for both of my two video sources.

However, I found there is another EIT related setting under:
Capture Cards  > HDHOMERUN: xxxxxx > Card Type >  Recording Options > Use
HD Homerun for Active EIT Scan
which was checked.  I unchecked these but the LiveTV issue with
mythfilldatabase remains the same.

Here is the output of the mysql commands requested.

mysql> SELECT * FROM housekeeping WHERE tag='MythFillDB';
+------------+----------+---------------------+---------------------+
| tag          | hostname | lastrun             | lastsuccess         |
+------------+----------+---------------------+---------------------+
| MythFillDB | NULL     | 2020-03-08 00:36:59 | 2020-03-08 00:36:59 |
+------------+----------+---------------------+---------------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

mysql> SELECT * FROM settings WHERE value in ('MythFillEnabled',
'MythFillMinHour', 'MythFillMaxHour');
+-----------------+------+----------+
| value           | data | hostname |
+-----------------+------+----------+
| MythFillEnabled | 1    | NULL     |
| MythFillMaxHour | 5    | NULL     |
| MythFillMinHour | 2    | NULL     |
+-----------------+------+----------+
3 rows in set (0.00 sec)

I have played with some of the optimization parameters to see if this is
related to heavy I/O on the backend but it is a relatively powerful machine
(i5-8400) and the database is on an SSD.  No luck so far.
