Comment (by waisted@…):

 Thankyou for explaining it an extra time and sorry for the overhead in
 this thread.
 Program table is truncated, triggers dropped earlier.
 The first 30-40 programs have started to appear in the program-guide
 during Live TV.
 The shows/channels that used to cause trouble when pressing "R" now seems
 to be responding correctly when trying to schedule in EPG.
 In mysql I've tried selecting the program that used to contain \0 in the
 "subtitle"-field, - it now appears blank.
 Succes! :)
 In a few hours one of the troublesome programs will be recorded and I'll
 try opening "Watch Recordings" to verify that all is working well. I'll
 only report back if it does not work as expected (and this'll be within 4
 hours).

 Thankyou for all your help and support.
