My mythbuntu system seems to be working mostly, but there<br>
is a puzzling problem with program descriptions. If I highlight<br>
a program in the program guide, or in watch recordings, the program<br>
description is frequently that of a completely different program, but<br>
I think always one on the same channel. I had this problem back in 0.21,<br>
(Open SUSE, compiled from svn -fixes) and hoped it would disappear when I started over with a new load of mythbuntu (0.22 fixes (22594)). Everything seemed fine for a while, then I saw one bad<br>
one, and then gradually more. Whatever was causing the problem must have tagged along in my database dump and restore. Running <a href="http://optimize_mythdb.pl" target="_blank">optimize_mythdb.pl</a> doesn't seem to make any difference.<br>
Does it report if any errors are found?<br>
How can I figure out what's going on and eliminate this problem?<br>
(if it involves SQL, I'll need to find a tutorial :-)<br>

Sounds like you're an XMLTV or Schedules Direct user who enabled EIT on the same channels that are populated with XMLTV/SD data.<br>
<br>
This is also known as, "Configuring EIT to stomp all over the correct listings data."<br>
