If you only have one tuner, and are in liveTV mode, then the background EIT scanner wont be running. If you're on the main menu and not recording, then the tuner is free and the background EIT scanner will be running...
<br><br>So maybe disable the EIT scanner? Just a possibility, you might be getting crap data over the air.<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 11/07/07, <b class="gmail_sendername">Alex Guichard</b> <<a href="mailto:alex_guichard@yahoo.com">

<br>issue, but not the past couple of times. If Myth is<br>left in LiveTV mode, this doesn't happen, but I don't<br>think I want my processor and hard drive constantly<br>working, even when I am not watching TV.<br>
<br>Any thoughts on what is deleting my guide data and how<br>to stop it?<br><br><br><br>____________________________________________________________________________________<br>Be a better Heartthrob. Get better relationship answers from someone who knows. Yahoo! Answers - Check it out.
