Comment (by bonnevil@…):

 Not the original reporter, seeing the same issue on 0.24.1.  EIT over the
 air is the only data source.  Attempting to collect the requested
 information using just '-v channel,eit,database' since there seems to be
 no '--loglevel debug' option.  Using my current testing configuration, so
 not just one channel.

 I've got a number of issues where things are screwed up now, and about 68
 MB of mythbackend.log starting from the table reset.  Obvious issue where
 Channel 4.1 has "Bold and the Beautiful" on 12/15 at 12:30 PM with the
 same description as "Survivor" on 12/14 at 07:00 PM.  Is there some way in
 which I can reduce the amount of data that needs to be attached to this
 bug or do some pre-analysis here?

 The issue doesn't show up right away on start up; once it shows up data
 seems to get progressively more scrambled.  I suspect there's a variable
 with bad data being passed to insertions into the program table, haven't
 gone through the log myself yet to try to sort it out.
