I too converted cross-eit to use Python 3 and it is currently working 
fine for me.

I have to edit the file when the clocks change as the line

date = dateobj + datetime.timedelta(seconds=time.altzone)

doesn't cope with the time change, do you have a fix?

As to your problem .

The 'chanid' value changes after every scan so i use something like.

select serviceid,chanid,channum,sourceid,callsign from channel where 
callsign like("%Channel 4 HD%") ;

to get the correct value, however you have a valid xml file so that 
should not be the issue.

I use the same mythfilldatabase command

/usr/bin/mythfilldatabase --refresh-all --verbose xmltv --file 
--sourceid 1 --xmlfile /tmp/export.xml

So presuming sourceid is correct it should work.

What has changed recently on your system?

Have you recently scanned?
